Depends on whether they linked it to Government related institutions. ITE is considered government related.

The irony in my case was the payment was for dining and UOB is likely the merchant's bank too. My appeal regarding the MCC code was flatly rejected by the bank.

For potential controversial MCC code, I will skip UOB cards. KKH's specialist clinic using Fire Dept (govt related) MCC was considered my own "fault" and I was thus considered to have used my appeal quota for the year. I have better experience with Citibank when the MCC codes did not match what I have spent on.

I'm personally a BOC cardholder, so I'm familiar with MCC. The actual cardholder that was holding onto this card is a UOB customer for a long time and she had the card as she doesnt like dealing with multiple banks. Haha

Even though you may be familiar with MCC, the merchants' banks may amaze you.

I have a new case of invalid spend at an educational institute where UOB is likely the merchant bank again. British council is govt related!

However, British Council has clearly stated that it is not.

The British Council is an executive non-departmental public body, a public corporation (in accounting terms) and a charity under registration numbers 209131 (England and Wales) and SC037733 (Scotland). Although we receive a government grant in aid, the British Council is operationally independent from the UK government and does not carry out functions on behalf of the Crown.

Think you meant recurring payment to insurance. Yes can get rebate. That is not "installment" i.e. UOB smartpay or 0% installment payment plan.

Bought tickets to the Singapore Science Center with the card. It was excluded and I did not get my quarterly rebate.

May I check does the topup to singtel Dash account consider valid spending for UOB rebate ? If not, does it be consider for the monthly $500 spending for the UOB one account ?

Frankly, it is totally ridiculous that UOB just conveniently blamed it on merchant codes. No effort is made to verify the issue. If UOB is indeed the merchants' banks as shown on my charge slips, the whole issue is just made worse. With another bank, I just had to inform what I had spent on at the merchant, the bank did its own check and credited me with the right benefits. For one particular merchant, I used the card serveral times thereafter but I never had to call in again, i.e. the MCC was updated.

UOB ONE card honestly does not deserve to be called Singapore's most generous rebate card.

As in they refused to waive? If you using the card for uob one account bonus interest, can use uob yolo card instead.

Out of curiosity, may I ask. In your case
if Month #1 you meet $1000 spend tier
Month #2 you meet $1000 spend tier
Month #3 you miss the $1000 spend tier because of this incident
you get $0 rebate for the quarter?

should be $50 rebate if the "legitimate" spending for each of the 3 months in that quarter are at least $500

can try appealing maybe UOB will be lenient
