I bought something outside Singapore with my DBS card under Sin currency, isnt correct that DBS charged the 0.8% Dynamic Currency Conversion fees?

Yep sounds about right, DCC is in effect in this case.

I think it depends on the location of the payment processor.

Sifu, do anyone spoon feed information whether the $1:4 miles more worthwhile compare to 6%/7% cash rebate in the market.

depends on your usage. average price of 1 mile is 2c

Although usage varies, so it's a bit like SMRT saying there's one train on average every 4 minutes. Train waiting time Miles can vary between 1 to 6 mins cents.

Ezlink CLO cum comfort taxi super VIP tell you this is infinitely better than paying $2000 to load up cabcharge VIP card.
250pts gets you one mth VIP priority booking which you'll appreciate when rainy days can't book cab. Their HQ would find a cab to pick you up!
Then you can still pay by flashpay for 5% rebate with cabrewards points earned.

This is only for phone in bookings right? Wonder how does it work? Guess they register your handphone number and name to know you're a priority customer?

Hi guys,

just want to double confirm that using this card for Taobao purchases (charged as ALIPAY*TAOBAO.COM SHANGHAI SHA CNYXXX) gets 10X points right?

I recall it used to, not sure if it still does. Will have to see next month statement to double confirm as the additional 9X is credited the next statement IIRC.

Let us know how it goes and update the spreadsheet if any changes.

I have some questions regarding the - Comfort and CityCab Priority Booking Program..

Assume I qualify for the program for 250 DBS points,

1. Do I have to book a taxi via the DBS app in order to be recognised as a cabcharge VIP? Can I use the Comfort booking app to book?

2. Is it really easier to get cabs as a cabcharge VIP? For example - heavy rain days.. can we still get a cab?

In the end, it still comes down to whether the cab uncle/auntie chooses to take the job, so even if you are at the front of the queue, if nobody is taking up the job, then you'll still be stranded.
