I kanna slap with additional charge esp with foreign website even with local charge...

 

[xRenol]

1.7% across the purchases but got some exclusion, u may go to the website to read

I feel the exclusions are at least lesser as compared to Mastercard and Visa.

For sure, just that for most people why bother keeping the Amex TCB anymore which was meant for the Grab top up use case.

Yah lor, I don’t know now TCB can use for what le, heng I haven’t cancel my UOB AMEX at least 1.7% highest in market, or Citicashback+ also higher at 1.6%. Maybe time to cancel this TCB le… sigh

some hawker centres only have qr codes... but their qr codes can accept amex... unless their qr code also accepts liquidpay... then can use any credit cards...

Yup those are the NETS enabled QR code. In fact most hawker accept this along with ShopBack and Fave. Seldom it is Grab only QR.

I will still keep AMEX TCB as long as I can waive the annual fees. Their app offers are sometimes quite good. Also good for telco bill payments which are excluded from cashback/points on many other Visa/MC cards.

Going to make my Grabpay account $0 next month since there is no point in using Grabpay anymore. More beneficial to charge directly to credit card if I need grabfood or grabcar.

Telco bills which are not on recurring payment qualify for cashback typically. FYI.

Guess can delete the Grab app after 4 April 2023.

- Ride hailing more costly than competition

Often, but not always.

Not sure which area you're in cause it could be area dependent, but CDG (and Tada) have been consistently cheaper in recent months for my use case.

Same here for me. Have been using these 2 instead. Office is in town area and staying in North-East zone of SG.

I’m trying to say Grab ride is not anymore expensive than the rest. I also take taxis via Zig mostly nowadays than via PHV.

 

[Jirachi]

there are many better cashback cards out there with way less hassle of having to top up the wallet, and not having it work for selected merchants. If one can avoid using GPMC just for the 1.5%, better to do so.

Yeah. I agree with this. Don’t let Grab hold onto your cash in the wallet as well.

For me it's CBD to West/North West and observed similar pricing. CDG tend to always have a cab driver who would accept the ride too.
