Who else still holds the Citibank Free For Life Premier Card?

Mrs D and I will be using one visit each in Stansted next Monday. No lounges there but a couple of cafes give a spend benefit. There. A good news story!

If so inclined - you can use PP for 'The House' at Sydney International air-side.

Starting to show its age since last refresh though. Some of the leather chairs are very well worn.

Still the best premium credit card , because where else can you get 2 Lounge passes and Travel Insurance for no annual fee, and most importantly *no effort*.

I barely use mine except for paying the airfares to trigger the insurance.

If we cancel it we aint ever getting it back.

And the travel insurance is still fairly decent too.

I'm going to apply for a Revolut metal credit card shortly which will become my primary card should I get it (given it offers conversion into a wide range of frequent flyer programs), but will hang onto this for just those reasons.

I thought the travel insurance has been severely cut back some years ago.

I particularly liked how before 1 Oct they told anyone who asked that there would no changes to the conversion rate from Rewards points to FlyBuys points. This would remain at 1:1 conversion and this would not change on 1 Oct they said. Not documented anywhere mind you, so you had to ask that question very specifically to find out and then manually record the transcription of the chat because they have no ability to provide a transcript of anything they say to you in their chat window.

Then guess what happened on 1 Oct? It's not hard to guess because this is NAB where lying is second nature. Yep, the conversion Rewards→FlyBuys immediately went to 3:2 with no announcement, no warning and no notification. Very effectively wiping out 1/3 of the value of whatever Rewards points you had with zero compensation.

Bother! Would have transferred last month if I'd know.
