I had spent more than 5k on instalments. UOB one card will no longer earn any rebates and interest. Really pissed that they just changed the terms in such short notice.

After this month will no longer use the UOB one card anymore. Bros here lets all stop using the card. Or complain on their FB =:p

Hor say Liao. Will close account with UOB when this happens.

I am tempted to switch everything to BOC (altho change tncs, still better deal). UoB is changing tncs bit by bit and over few rounds... after people here have onboarded. Some pple will still stay with them due to inertia. Some people will slowly get used to their bit by bit changes or not notice. Smelly pattern.

I dont have installments with them. The fair thing for them is to apply new rules to new installments not existing ones. Or, at least give option to terminate existing plan since installment is no longer attractive & conditions have changed.

i find they are quite accommodating to Wealth Banking clients ... not sure if anyone asked for the above exceptions ?

Hi all, regarding this min of 5 transactions and $500 criteria, will the giro payment of bills thru One card be counted as transactions too?

TIA!

Honestly, I find nothing wrong with that. It works 2 way, they need to sustain their profitability as well in order to pay bonus interest to existing customers whom are supportive of them.

End of the day, consumers need to be aware giving rebates or bonus interest is not mandatory.

What kind of GIRO bills? Like telcos? If so, pretty sure they'll be counted.

If I'm not wrong, the five transactions are actual transactions, and is separate from the three GIROs. For e.g. if you pay Singtel bill using credit card bill payment, that counts as one transaction. But if your Singtel bill is under GIRO arrangement, then it doesn't count as one of the five transactions. Please correct me if I'm wrong.

I was referring to recurring credit card payments. Strictly speaking GIRO would be from a bank account not from credit card right?

Sorry for not making clear. I mean using One card to pay telco, ISP using recurring payment. Will these count as transactions?

Yes recurring bill payment charged to the card should be counted as transactions.
