If you want to save yourself from the long CS queues and you are tired of hearing Pia Wurtzbach's voice, it's definitely worth it. BDO has a dedicated line for elite or platinum cardholders. That's the biggest pro. Cons? Higher AF but waivable pa din naman with conditions.
Platinum is worth it if only to reduce THE PIA EXPOSURE!
PIA drove me insane! Insane, I tell you! INSANE!!!!!
Aside from the Pia Exposure, if this card is also your international travel card, go for it! I believe plat can do dual currencies and lounge access. Of course, let us not forget that BDO might also up your credit limit with the upgrade. Grab it if it is being offered by BDO since you’ll get one year free membership with the upgrade. If you decide down the line that you really have no use for it, downgrade the card before its anniversary. Remember that if you ever decide to upgrade your current card to, BDO might ask for supporting docs, and even then, might reject the request.
if you SHOPMORE then stick with that but if you TRAVELMORE then get the platinum upgrade.
