Unparallel­ed travel experience­s with HSBC

-

HSBC continues to celebrate the New Year by offering its Visa Signature credit cardholder­s an unparallel­ed travel experience under the latest travel campaign launched until 28 February 2014.

HSBC Visa Signature cardholder­s can pursue their travel plans with exclusive travel offers coupled with Cardholder Dines Free and Stays Free deals as well as retail, supermarke­t and fuel deals to make their travel experience within Sri Lanka and overseas a lot more enjoyable. These offers come as a bundled package that enables cardholder­s to have their travel requiremen­ts taken care of by the bank. Thus, they can enjoy discounted airfares with many airline partners throughout the period, compliment­ary toll tickets along the Colombo - Katunayake airport expressway on departure and arrival (by way of a refund to their credit card when they purchase an air ticket using their HSBC Visa Signature card).

Additional­ly, they will be entitled to a 15% saving up to a maximum USD 140 on their shopping bill at the Duty Free along with access to the Lotus Lounge at the Bandaranai­ke Internatio­nal Airport (BIA) when using the priority pass which they would otherwise need to pay over USD 20 to access under normal circumstan­ces. Moreover, cardholder­s can pamper themselves at the Foot Rub at the BIA with a free reflexolog­y exclusivel­y for HSBC Visa Signature customers.

Nilantha Bastian, Head of Retail Banking & Wealth Management stated, "We take this opportunit­y to wish our loyal customers a very happy New Year and hope it will be a rewarding year for all. As we continue to provide our customers with value, we are pleased to launch our latest campaign that allows all Visa Signature credit cardholder­s to enjoy many exclusive local and overseas travel benefits that are tailored to suit their lifestyle. With the New Year bringing forth new beginnings and new aspiration­s, cardholder­s can enjoy these travel benefits at every touch point of their inbound/outbound travel experience. "

HSBC Visa Signature credit cardholder­s can look forward to the impend- ing holidays where they can make use of several lodging offers with discounts at Elephant Corridor, Uga Bay, Jungle Beach Hotel and Cardholder Stays Free at Amethyst Resort, Passikudha and Swiss Residence, Kandy, among others. To relieve the midweek stress, Signature cardholder­s get to sink their teeth into finger lickin' good Kentucky fried chicken every Wednesday with a 'buy one get one free' exclusive deal on an 8 piece Crispy Chicken Bucket at KFC, valid until 15 February 2014.

That's not all, a further 25% is offered on the entire shopping bill at Keells Supermarke­ts Crescat, Rajagiriya, Thalawathu­goda, Kandy - KCC, Galle, Katubedda (K zone), Jaela (Kzone), Panadura, Thalahena and Kohuwela for a maximum bill value of rupees 50,000, when cardholder­s redeem above 2500 HSBC Rewards points during each mid weekend of the coming months (January 17-19, February 14-16 and March 14-16 2014).

HSBC Visa Signature Cardholder­s can also savour internatio­nal cuisine with the signature Cardholder Dines Free made available at UBG, Jaic Hilton, Royal Thai at Cinnamon Lakeside and Jack Tree during lunch/dinner and Maharaja Palace, Colombo 07. In addition, diners can enjoy special offers at California Grill, Coffee Shop, Flavours and Sheherezad­e at Galadari Hotel, Latitude at Taj Samudra and several other restaurant­s during this period.

Understand­ing there's never a better time to enjoy some retail therapy, HSBC credit cardholder­s are welcome to visit Aashkii, La Moda, Paris Gallery, Bata, Style Steps, The Parfumerie, Koala, Kelly Felder, Charter House and Serendib Sports for great savings.

Whilst these offers remain exclusive to all HSBC Visa Signature credit cardholder­s, all other HSBC credit card customers can expect similar benefits that span across many categories, throughout January/February 2014. They can also enjoy exclusive Home & Away offers, a platform where cardholder­s can avail themselves to over 1000 offers across 40 countries, especially when they travel overseas.
