Standard chart priority banking like nothing much Hor?

What's limiting me is not the 24 visits, but how many guest (1) I can bring in FOC. I travel with children, so it's not enough to bring everyone in without paying. Contemplating whether to ask my wife to get her own PB and PP, but it's not urgent.

actually nowadays those lounges also quite busy. too many people already

Those that I went to, not so crowded lay... Probably depends on which airport/lounge and time of visit (peak/off-peak).

Nope, restricted to 1 member + 1 guest at a time for SCB PVI. The lounge staff might let all 24 in on your single PP if you insist, but SCB can charge you for the remaining 22 pax since that's against their T&C.

I experienced 1 time in Bali or Phuket. The lounge manager let me bring everyone in and only charge 2 visits. Typically ppl in developing countries more empathy. Those amdk countries u can forget about it.

This has been waived for a while already - you may wish to check their website.

edit: even if drop to 0 and you bring it up before the year end, they don't seem to be strict about it.

Not sure what is bank lounge (heard of Treasures lounge but not sure what it is).

One of the SCB PB selling points is airport lounge access - https://www.sc.com/sg/priority/priority-pass-faq/ .

12 complimentary visits to airport lounges per year. Rest and eat buffet.

SC sometimes organize seminars for Priority customers.

2 months ago I attended a property seminar, and they serve nice buffet at Intercontinental

Long long ago, I attended a couple of talks for OCBC Premier members. And we were given mooncakes too.

I have brought my 2 children and wife without any problem even when the lounge is crowded in Europe and Dubai. No issue. They just charge 4 visits.

Only good stuff with this priority banking is the lounge and low commision for stock trading. RM cannot make it but sure ask you to do survey every year.

Yes. The main or only benefit is the Priority Pass. Can get 24 visits. But I think now down-graded to 12. But that is still very good. I think must have $200k AUM in certain period. If not, used to get 4 visits.

UOB Privilege banking. No have airport lounge at all. HSBC Premier also don’t have. Maybank used to have 2 or 3 premier lounge vouchers. But now no have. DBS normal Treasures also don’t have any airport lounge.

You can bring in 1 guest free of charge, and in that case considered as 2 visits utilized. Additional guests can be brought in but need to pay US$35 per pax. Most ppl, including myself don't like to pay. So, I got my wife to apply for Priority Pass too. Then we can bring in our 2 children FOC.

You need to have PB, then apply PB Visa Infinite card. Once you get the card, activate Priority Pass (airport lounge access) - https://www.sc.com/sg/credit-cards/priority-visa-infinite-card/ . The PBVI annual fee can be waived by asking your RM.
