Just found this new (I think) offer on their site, where you can get the card with $0 annual fee (for life - I'm assuming)
Features
- $0 annual fee (for both primary and supplementary cards)
- Earn 1 MR point for every $2 spend
- 1 MR Point = 1 Frequent Flyer point in Cathay Pacific, Malyasia Airlines, Singapore Airlines, Thai Airways, Virgin, or New Zealand Airlines
- 44 interest free days
- 19.99% interest rate
From what I know, this is the only free frequent flyer credit card available at the moment.
good find but Amex is not as widely accepted as MC or Visa. Citibank Gold/Platinum with no annual fee is still the best for me. Overseas travellers should get the Wizard Clear Advantage MC for fee free transactions/withdrawals.
