Ok not a problem.

CIMB spokesman!

Flipping through the mailer. Seems impressive 3.8% on $500/mth spend. Much better than that silly and greedy UOB ONE I had spent $1500 on (thinking I would get $50, when I have to spend another $1500 for 2 more consecutive months to get $150 rebates!)

What is Xiaomi Redmi? Interesting to have a highest spend as T&C.

Restaurant-bar category.... Means normal restaurant no 3.3% rebate?
Foreign currency online transaction 3.3% rebate, bunch of of cards offer more than this, and no need to be foreign currency and no need above $50 per transaction.
Paywave...ok, abit higher than uob one 3.3% which is negligible, I will prefer fp 6% if there is the fp machine.
At a glance, this card seems not attractive to me.
Can someone enlighten what benefits distinguish it from other cards?

Hi Shawn,

Finally the T&C files are uploaded on the website. Can I clarify on the promotion for Xiaomi/luggage?

What I read is new applicants for both the Visa Signature AND Platinum Mastercard are eligible for:
a. a Xiaomi Redmi 1S & $8 hi! SIM Cards (worth S$179) (first 4,000 applicants); or
b. 20” Luggage (worth S$148) (4,001st applicant onwards)

Need to make 3 transactions within 1st month to qaulify.
400 redemptions per week. If exceed 400 will be based on highest spend. Can I clarify highest spend is the sum of the first 3 transactions only and not sum of all transactions during the first month?

For those who apply only the Visa Signature is only eligible for the luggage? No Xiaomi?

I already have the Platinum Mastercard. So technically I cannot apply for this card again right?

Please advice.

Thanks!

The 3.8% is actually based on default 0.5% + additional 3.5% which only applies for certain transactions right?

At first I thought is default 3.8% + additional 3.5% :s13:

Use the other promotion codename: Acorn 5040, from the mailer, allowing you to apply EITHER visa signature or Platinum Master Or BOTH.

From the xiaomi and luggage promo T&Cs:
14. Promotion is only valid for new CIMB Visa Signature/PLATINUM MasterCard applications made using CIMB Visa Signature/PLATINUM MasterCard application form with Acorn code: 4034, 8041, 8042, & 3XXX (starting from 3800).

So seems like the mailer application form, acron 5040 is not eligible?

so confirm only applies to the "Restaurant - bar" category? Not the normal restaurant category? Initially when I read I thought it means from restaurant to bar category. Do you have examples of those places that fit the "Restaurant - bar" category?

Acron 5040 has its own set of T&Cs which are slightly different from other Acrons.
