DBS Vantage Card

[IceShelterX]

Hmm sign up bonus is lousy for existing customer...
1.5mpd for local spending - is slightly better than 1.2 or 1.3. 4mpd capped at 2k p.a. is too little.
auto waived for 60k spending sound not bad, or $588 for 25000 miles = 42mpd
10 PP visit... use this to complement your unlimited visit by other card. 3 generations can join in lounge in 1 trip.

OK... KIV first.

At least its a card weighing 10g if it helps

Turn-offs for me are
- Limited transfer partners
- 3 year expiry
- only 10 lounge visits
- no mention of travel insurance

I think milelion said you can alway start a company for $1?

 

[GenuineSeller]

this card is a worse version of the amex hf card

I m very happy with AMEX HF card ...... besides earning miles ($1 : 1.8 miles) for all my insurance premiums, season parking, hawker food etc... it has quite a number of promotions every month to get extra cash rebates/additional miles. Not forgetting the possibility of transferring miles to "my staff".

BUT
- cap on transfers
- need to own company
- it's an AMEX

Starting is not the problem. Maintaining the company is the issue, especially if you don't actually have a business. Certainly not worth it just for a credit card...

One can’t maintain a shell company?

Easy to maintain la. Singapore is easiest to start a company. Just do some lazada etc and every year settle ur accounts.

How is this card compared to the rest of the $120k card? So far I still find Citibank the best. Local 3 banks I doubt they will give you good lobang. But want to apply better apply early to get exclusive. You late into the game, DBS treat you like dirt liao

then why Suleyman say maintaining is an issue?

A little bit mafan because of corp secretary, accounting etc but if you only got few transactions, easy la

pretty sure if you shut down the business later on they also won't cancel your card

form cs is very easy to file. only takes a few mins.

this card is extremely underwhelming compared to the amex hf card. if you have 8k to spend then you can pump and dump it.

 

[AlvinDj]

Amex hf card for sure is the way to go.. Just open a sole prop..

 

[plustwo]

lmao now they come up with an even worse offer for late applications. can archive this thread already.
