@VoyageBliss Haha. Just too conincidental. I have just made my flight bookings to Vietnam. We are going to Phu Quoc as well in December

Enjoy your trip.

Good to see ICICI refund the DCC markup fees reversal as well as the IGST/CGST taken on a foreign transaction when a refund was processed.

Too many times we have seen the banks levy those charges regardless.

Kudos where it is deserves.

PS: They should still add the transfer partners. Its a pain

@VoyageBliss Thanks @VoyageBliss

@ccg33k Can we get the bonus if approved today? Does it require physical card to make transactions ?

[Aakash @Aakash120]

@ccg33k @sahilgrwl15 Then its a league of its own. Only reasons I can think of is:

1. Spends are comparable to millionaire
2. Having business spends on the Amex cards.
3. Mercedes purchase from the Charge card.

Base/voucher spends will take ages 😅

[Aakash @Aakash120]

@sahilgrwl15 @ccg33k Mainly works by creating FOMO by redemption, leading to referrald and that leading to redemption, and the cycle continues.

[Aakash @Aakash120]

@ccg33k Oh yess. Who can forget that. They are just throwing money at the moment.

[Aakash @Aakash120]

This is so true.

Some underrated perks:
1. Amazing golf benefits
2. Movie Perks
3. Accelerators on Gift Cards
4. Points back on Utility spends (capped but still viable)

Its golf benefits are so underrated. No cap. That alone saves me more than 50k per year.

You can book 4 rounds/lessons per month which roughly cost 2500 each session and 4-5k per game. Taking 10k per month benefit is roughly 1.2L returns in itself.

Not to mention the accelerators and Movie benefits.

No brainer card

[Aakash @Aakash120]

@ccg33k Correction: Its actually more than more than 4 rounds per month. You can book a round every 5 days. So if you dont skip a beat, and be very meticulous, you can get 6 rounds.

Do the math

@UC_Assist What's point when you dont reply on DM. Shameful

Native RO Feedbac

I am fed up talking with the AI Chatbot of @urbancompany_UC @UC_Assist for the issue with Native RO, which has suddenly stopped working.

And the app is saying that everything works as expected and is not letting me arrange a technician and keeps on asking me to restart this.

2 years unconditional warranty, what a joke. They will keep you in the chatbot for 2 years unconditionally.

There is no option to raise ticket and it again goes back to the same bot.

And then it threatens you that all the expenses will be borne by you if you want to skip the steps you are doing for the last 3 hours.

@gurumilespoints They credited me 3000 points and then deducted with the reason, promo reversal 🥲

My 2 cents.

I agree to your points but in a way I feel they have made me and family alot of new memories. Even though it may feel like a forced plan.

It all started with having vistara business class vouchers.

We had to make plans around where can we go with Vistara, and we loved every bit. From Kashmir to Kerala we flew in Vistara aircrafts and had a blast there.

Similarly we enjoyed the Accor points to the most in Singapore, Hong Kong.

I loved the Taj Vouchers and Marriott Nights in Rishikesh and NCR Getaway retreats.

Most of the time near voucher/points expiry. But they forced us to take a break and have a good time.

[Aakash @Aakash120]

@ccg33k @airindia This is most positive thing of 2026 ❤️

[Aakash @Aakash120]

My issue with TopCashback is that the rates when redirected via TopCashback are always higher and net net I am always at the loss when booked via TopCashback.

Last 3 times I have refrained from this route specially because the math was not adding up.

Did you also felt the price increase?

[Aakash @Aakash120]

@rhoeshan @imYadav31 This looks cheap on you guys.
