Seems like if you are on existing promo, there is no need to do anything extra?
The new promo includes payment for Singtel and SP bills, as well as Prudential insurances.
But it's only payment via GIRO? so if they are billed to credit card (e.g. UOB One Card), it won't enjoy the 6% rebate right?
So I have to convert my bill payment to GIRO instead of credit card (which would have qualify as eligible spending for most of the bills) for the bonus interest. not sure if it's worth the switch... have to do some detailed calculations -.-

New earmark promo: https://forms.uob.com.sg/personal/save/savings-festival.html
Additional EIR around 0.7% for $150k tier? Combined this with existing EIR 1.9% and "UOB Bill & Tax Super Saver Promotion" still looks pretty attractive.
What was the cash credit amount for the previous promo?

"GIRO payment must be paid with eligible accounts — UOB Uniplus Account, UOB One Account, KrisFlyer UOB Account or UOB Lady’s Savings Account"The new promo includes payment for Singtel and SP bills, as well as Prudential insurances.

I guess if you can hit the minimum spend for credit card easily then can consider switching to GIRO, otherwise just prioritize to pay with credit card to hit minimum spend first.
I think I'll shift my Singtel bills to eGIRO in that case, since it'll enjoy 6% rebate instead of the 3.33% under UOB One card.
Maybe the SP bill also (3.33% + 1%).

Long time ago it was around mid of the month. Have not participated in the recent promos.
You need to pay attention to utility bills if you stay HDB.... given quarterly U-save rebate from govt, there may be months you pay nothing or very little for the bill .....
If stay condo or landed, then different story ......

This is what I got from CSO: As checked no registration is required. Customers who fulfil the qualifying conditions will be auto-enrolled in this promotion

i just set up mobile paynow, money lock $1, and set up egiro for income tax, utilities bill, and telco bill to One Account.
income tax my new giro deduction cycle starts in may 2026 and ends in apr 2027. assuming that my newly set up giro for utilities bill and telco bill also start giro deduction in mat 2026, means i miss out 1 month of rebate? since the promotion period already started in Apr 2026 and ends in Mar 2027
also, i read in the tnc that the rebate will be within the next 2 calendar month after the month of giro deduction, based on existing users' experience, this means that my first deduction in may 2026, i will only see my rebate credited in jul 2026?

No requirement for at least 1 telco/utility.
