thanks for the tips.
Don’t think there are any notifications about pending Giro transactions. There are 2-3 ways about it:

1. Look at past month Giro transactions and transfer in the sum 1-2 days or on the same day as the Giro transaction (this is what I do)

2. After the Giro transaction is recorded on the next day, transfer in double the Giro amount to hit the max account of UOB One account. Then transfer the extra amount out on the next day. This will ensure the average UOB One balance remains at the max amount.

If your Giro amount is $100, your account will be less $100 from max amount for interest. transfer in $200 the next day from Giro debit so average account balance remains at max amount. Then transfer out the additional $100 on the third day.

UOB has been using this tactic for at least 5 years ... my relative was also "entrapped"

worst still, her "savings plan" is charged to her UOB One Debit card ... she gets the bonus interest but not CC rebate

if just started for 1 or 2 months, can consider terminating ... if not wrong, it shld be a 10 year plan, and the guaranteed amount after 10years is less than the premium put in .. the returns shld be less than 2% pa

if u r getting 3.33% CC rebate on that $300 monthly ... then the return would be much better.
Does she have the CC? If she changes her "savings plan" to be charged to the cc instead of the debit card, then she can get both the bonus interest and the cc rebate as well, right?

uob sales not so kind to advise her to apply One Card to charge to get rebate ...

instead, only got her to charge $500 to a new debit card ... just like what happened with zzshi81

in the first place, she was there just to update her passbook

Hi, does the giro transactions from One account include giro for other bank's cc?

Also if I have some monthly pru insurance to deduct which card is recommended? Yolo or One? Or use it for giro? Or just pay annually?

yes

if charging monthly, it's better to use OneCC

paying annually is 3% cheaper than paying monthly I think
