can explain whats that?

ntuc vouchers - smrt 5% (vs anz optimum)

means u use your SMRT to buy voucher at 5% off
or 5% rebate at the end of the month ?

then u use voucher to shop at NTUC later, is it?

buy $600 NTUC vouchers with citibank smrt card, rebate 5% aka $30 via pts, then get the $30 vouchers buy bengawan solo (or other outlets).

taxi use flashpay lor why difficult? coupled with cab rewards yum yum!

a lot of taxi uncles say no flashpay machine.

hospital use manhattan?

is manhattan only restriction on insurance?

maybank property tax giro simi lai eh!?

http://info.maybank2u.com.sg/promotion/deposits-banking/giro.aspx

i did this cos these items all cannot get any rebate anywhere else. insurance. prop tax.

groceries use citi smrt lor. or maybank family for cold storage/ntuc.

is that all ntuc outlets? can buy ntuc vouchers? cash rebate back to cc same mth or next mth?

Keniphone should have updated my one card one use thread.....anyway I'll quote over later.
Btw I don't think there's a truly unlimited rebate matter. Everything has a reasonable limit. Just that most of us spend within our limits. Who can spend unlimited money anyway?
If one spends millions per month I'm sure it would bust that rebate limit...

It would elicit phone calls from banks ans sometimes a ban.

I know of a stupid blue bank put up credit card Xmas promo then cut people off for spending money online!
anyway there's no CC planning,just use whichever card you have on the best type of purchase you're going to make,that's all.
e.g. dining....can't be spending $10000 on restaurants every month right? just stick to whichever card gives you best rebate lor,like weekend dining use ocbc365 card.

--- must take comfort or citycab nia. before board ask uncle accept or not, no accept juz close door! now taxi alot whahaahah.

---- i think hospital still can. insurance cannot.

---- citi smrt reward u with smrt$, once ur transaction is posted will reward u, can redeem they will mail u vouchers. all ntuc can, only kallang wave one got more rebates!

---- hsbc revolution x5 points if u wan to redeem cash rebate is about 1.5%, i hv other things to redeem which is about 2.22%. thats why this card dining n entertainmt is taking over my anz travel.

HSBC Revolution looks nice for dining. but I've had bad experience with them and vowed not to use them again.

If you book hotel through agoda, any CC can give you additional 5-8% card discount.
If u want cash rebate, book with UOB Visa signature, 5% (Online, foreign currency), min $1000/month.
If you want miles, DBS Altitude, 3 miles/$1 for online tix/hotel purchase.
