My Nov spending

Thailand Hotel (retail) $500
Lazada (online) $20
Scoot (online) $200
Meals (macdonald, songfa,etc ) $30
NTUC (paywave) $50
Qoo10 (online) $100

Didn't get cash rebate in Dec.

Rebate for Nov spendings were only credited in January. Probably check your unbilled transactions.

I guess not all Qoo10 transactions get 5%? Any issues with using paypal?

Cos using SCB previously and sometimes not all Qoo10 transactions are classified online.

for the past years, making qoo10 transaction directly with credit card were entitled rebates for me, scb or dbs all have.

so use credit card instead of paypal for qoo10

DBS customer service says need to send SMS to register for 5% cashback.

Sounds like trapping un-aware customers.

When you applied for the card? IIRC only card applied before Apr2016 need to send SMS for the 5% promo. Card applied from 1 Apr 2016, auto enrolled to the promo.

Question

Simply make a minimum spend of S$600 on your Card in a calendar month.

- does this means all transactions need to be in Online/ Paywave ? what bout the merchant that has no paywave capability?

only online/paywave has 5%, non-online/non-paywave "qualified spending" can get 0.3% and count to the min $600. Refer to the TnC.

the mailer confirms no registrations needed:

Your DBS Live Fresh Card now comes with the one of the highest online rebate rates - 5% cashback on all online spend, including online shopping, online travel bookings, online food deliveries, ticket bookings for movies and more. Almost everything you get online gives you cashback so you can Live Fresh!

Thanks. I am referring to the 5% for Nov spending.
My DBS live fresh card was applied on Nov 2015.
The 5% was there all along when I applied.
Never knew need to register to get 5%cashback.

Has anyone received their 0.3% / 5% for Dec 2017 spending? Based on new T&Cs, should have been credited by 15th calendar day after month-end, which is yesterday.

depends which DBS card and what kind of transaction. Btw live fresh card no longer award points.

Thanks for the reply! I got confused, it isn't live fresh card, but rather DBS woman's world mastercard...i checked T&C, it seems there is no cap.

Not yet receive as well. Noticed the new T&C supposed to be credited by 15th calendar day. Recently encounter alot of delays in cashback crediting especially DBS and Citibank, starting to lose trust on these banks.. Make sure check your cashback monthly and voice up to the banks if not credited..

follow up regularly, this is what i do.

just recently i applied for amex capitacard, welcome gift never arrived. Follow up 2-3 times, then they only go and check and found that it is credited to stranger's account. If never follow up they never even bother to check :vijayadmin:
