Hi all,

My three months in a quarter are months ending 2nd Feb, 2nd March and 2nd April respectively.

For the last month of the quarter (month ending 2nd April), does spending 2k via. grab top up before 16th March qualify for the quarterly 5% basic rebate and additional 5% rebate for grab?

And also does that spending qualify for min. 500 spending for UOB one bonus interest for month ending 31st March?

Thx.

Let say, my prudential ins is having 2.4k premium yearly and due in June. Can i cardup, and make payment early like Apr pay $800, May pay another $800, and June pay the last $800. By doing this, i can spread my spending to 3months, try to get the $2k quarterly spend on uob one.

* I don't have cardup now and don't really knows how it works.

Will this workable?

hello, maybe you misread. quarterly spend is $1.5/$3/$6k

500x3
1000x3
2000x3

There's no 2k quarterly spend. just letting you know in case you misread :)

Can I check for those who spend 2k grab top up preciously, the addtional rebate will be 300 posted into your account? Maybe can consider the last blast of fire.. Go top up my grab to 2k this month

Hi, given the UOB changes on 16 March (to remove additional 5% cash rebate on Grab transactions), will

(A) topping up $500 worth of grab credits still count towards the quarterly rebate? and

(B) will I still qualify for UOB One (savings) account monthly bonus interest simply by topping up $500 worth of grab credits through UOB One Card?

IIRC it goes into the CC to offset outstanding.

Debatable. Refer to previous posts.

It will depend on the mcc of grab top up, but highly likely to be excluded from uob one account and uob one credit card.

It will not be counted as minimum sum spend, and will not be counted for cashback rebate.

If you're converting UOB money to Grab money, it will not count.

Grab car, Grab food, where you actually spend money, will count.

Each time I tap my One card (registered in SimplyGo) to take MRT it counts as 1 transaction right?

This exclusion of insurance really damn headache.

For Cardup, how do they know you're paying for your own policy? Need to input your own policy number or something right?

Can use CardUp to pay for Prudential premium. To Prudential it is just a bank transfer.

Hi Trazora, have you managed to successfully stop the recurring CC payment and switch to cardup? Can share how it was done? The pru website only allows you to either switch cards or submit a recurring bank transfer, and both have to be a legit bank. Thanks!!

Just pay at least say 2 weeks before the recurring CC payment, to allow the payment to be processed then recurring payment will not occur.

do you mean to ask cardup to pay the insurance company (e.g. prudential) 2 weeks before the premium due date?

is it possible to instruct the specific date to pay each month?

thanks.
