UOB Absolute Cashback Card

[iduncheckmail]

Be warned that it is very hard to waive UOB annual fees.

I have never been charged a single annual fee. And I have UOB cards >10yrs

Why not? Use cc to topup. Withdraw to bank bia paynow? Uob shouldnt be able to control that right

If it was so easy, don't need work already. Just churn and earn that 1.7% off UOB / Grab.
Grab top-up via credit cards cannot be withdrawn or transferred to other Grab accounts. This change happened for quite a few months already.

All annual fees waiver are never easy if you seldom use the card or you charge very little to it.

Believe it has but because it is a co-brand Amex card it can't be added onto mobile devices. All co-brand Amex cards in SG doesn't support.

Only those directly issued by Amex are able to.

Pity its amex which isn’t as widely accepted. Guess i’ll stick to One card for now.

ya man....if Visa/Mastercard i might take also just to see see look look.
card design looks quite nice.

but sticking to ONE card for now.

Bring the card in your wallet. Unless u insist on having it inside your phone then this card won't do for you.

Received email on existing PPA cards automatically converted to this card in July with no card number change, they're gonna phase the PPA card after finally so many years.

Use the grab pay card for your Google/apple pay etc instead.

Overall I think it's a good card that finally do away with all those rubbish exclusions.

But with One card offering up to 5% for $2000, it's hard to pass. Sticking with One card for now.

If your insurance company accepts Amex, yes.

can always use it to top up Grab Pay Master Card and then use that GPMC as visa card ( no more Amex Limitation + you get additional 1.2% cashback from grab point)
