DBS will not simply call you to tell you a certain transaction is excluded. Did you previously call/message them to enquire?

On a side note, wouldn't be surprised if it is eventually removed either. Too many people are calling in trying to get the bonus credited for fevo.

CSO called to inform me.

As for the circumstances, no idea

anyway do at ur own risk.. just informing so that no one will expect a 10x when u get nth next month

Edited: oh wait, maybe cause all my transactions ever since i receive my WMC card is only that? Maybe haha

Paypal

Anyone else not see 4mpd for Paypal transactions since Dec statement?

Most of my Paypal transactions are for Uber; would they be filtering out Uber or Paypal itself?

Nope. Did not enquire on anything except for Live Fresh Card.

on a side note is why dbs call me more impt or fevo not able for wmc more impt now? Besides i am not those that call in and try to get them to credit the bonus poibts, since i never have the issue

I think most ppl are missing the point

Like I said, it is rather expected that fevo is removed, since it has been posting as EZ-LINK LTD for quite a while, which is explicitly excluded in their TNCs. Since it is somewhat expected, I (along with many others) are more curious as to why DBS proactively called you (and you alone) for an excluded transaction. If DBS called proactively called everyone to inform them of an ineligible transaction, can you imagine the additional manpower required? In fact I would be pretty excited if that was the case, since I will never have to manually track the points for WWMC at all.

Nice, one more benefit removed due to Kum gong people. :) especially those people who keep calling to ask, never see dbs called me to inform me this.

Exactly why I am not surprised here. There are even people who went the full journey to submit top up receipts to argue their case. Simply cannot understand. And then there are bloggers who publicize to the whole world, just like what happened to citireward + eaxs.

Oh well enough of ranting here, life goes on as usual since I do not use fevo on a daily basis. Sorry for those who rely on it solely to meet the $2k a month, you will have to find an alternative (and trust me, it exists.)


edit: comgateway is running a promo for wwmc/wmc, 8mpd/4mpd for the respective cards

Agree 100% I'm also curious to know why (if it is in fact the case) DBS proactively called you. I would like them to proactively call me to help me reconcile my points as they always seem to deviate a little each month lol. Or better yet, proactively send me a breakdown rather than I have to ask.

Thankfully I've also already moved past FEVO hehe.

You are right about that. Spot on. :)

I actually have a US Amex card but I don't use it cos the miles / spent ratio doesn't justify.

Moreover, several years ago, they no longer accept payments at the local AMex offfice here, which makes it all the more harder to pay the bills.

The reason I brought it up was because having a US Amex is the start to other us credit cards such as csr. Also, the point is not in earning miles from daily spend, but rather from signup bonuses. The Amex plat and plat business recently had a historical high offer of 100k MR, which was a great deal.

Do telco bill payments still get 4mpd in practice - in light of the fact that the T&C excludes "Utility bill payments"?

Via their respective websites - yes

Edit: this is based on dec 16 spending which was credited on 16jan. Subsequent DP has to wait till 16feb.

How do you apply cards without SSN though? Probably AU possible but new apps kinda hard without SSN

It's not that hard to obtain a SSN/TIN in the first place. Furthermore, the only reason why they need a SSN is for credit tracking. Credit history can be linked to passport as well, so there's no issue.
