Just wondering…if you leave account balance at 0, will they still charge you $5 ie your balance will go into negative. I recall some banks will leave it alone.Anyone has any experience with UOB on this.
Yes will go into negative and even charge overdraft fees and interest.

I need to go into branch to sort out my account (i.e. close it) some day.

UOB needs to wake up its idea. 1.9% for full $150k with $500 card spend is not cutting it compared to the competition.

Where else got high interest savings account more than this other than maybank?

Hmm, cannot buy Capitaland Mall vouchers from wogi.sg .......
I made the same mistake too, bought $40 Capitaland vouchers in end Sep to make up $500 without knowing it does not qualify...called uob and they asked me to make it up in Oct, meaning spend at least $540 in Oct then call them in Nov, they will credit the Sep bonus interest manually once they confirm the Oct $540 spend is qualified

Buying Capitaland voucher through their App is not eligible for minimum spend ... but if you buy vouchers through other means, eg. WOGI.sg, it is eligible ....

just that WOGI.sg has stopped selling Capitaland vouchers just a while ago ....

How about buying ntuc vouchers from ntuc stores
I top up Fairprice gift card ... since it is not able to distinguish whether the payment is for groceries or top-up at the cashiers, so it is considered as a valid transactions and eligible .....

This is just like as someone mentioned earlier that paying singtel bill via the app is not eligible, but pay by website is, because the app is via AXS...

You just reminded me that UOB ONE needs the highest quantum and also needs salary credit and ONE card spending. Yet it is only 1.9%

Any better options now?
