I just called the CS regarding UOB One Plat, the cashback rate starting on July 2011 in only valid for 1 year period. Can anyone else double confirm on this?

Not so attractive to me. If I get this card, I would just use it only at petrol stations or cinemas.

And use other 2 CCs (OCBC Titanium & MB 2) for other purchase. These 2 CCs are still the best.

@Gen-X, thanks for the nice write-up. Appreciate the card comparisons.

Thanks milentechie for the kind words and reading my article (my new weapon idea was from your posting of the card casing at General Thread, haha)

Well, for those who are not eligible for OCBC TMC and Maybankard 2 Gold Cards, the UOB 1 Card is a great option for them to also earn 5% cash back from petrol and 2% from groceries which is way better than other classic cards based on 1X points.

Sounds good.
Did UOB approach you btw?

i've been using the one card for some time. After reading your thread, now i only know these great features are coming. the design were the same to Singapore One Card

i also studied their website knowing that on top of the cash rebate, we still earn the SMART cash.
so if they did not remove the original 2% smart cash out from groceries, then means i'm getting 4% in total ~~, and 7% in total for using BHP ~~ etc ~

How I wish they did If they had, the cash back table would have been done in such a way to show that the One Card gives the most cash back by pumping petrol at BHP and add a row where we spend RM1000 at cinemas, haha


Yes, if the 2% is retained for petrol and groceries, this card is great.

The uob one card is better than citibank cash back platinum because the annual fees was waived with minimum 1 swipe per month

Grocery at Tesco, Giant and Carrefour = 2% SMART cash
Petrol at BHp = 2% SMART cash.
ALL other purchase = 0.3% SMART cash

on top of that still get cash rebate. Wow.

I have the UOB One Card. All you mention above applicable for existing card holder? Effective from 1st July 2011?

i think i read somewhere in their website existing one card member dun need change their card

Wah... I didn't know my feng shui kung-fu so powerful...
Do you want free feng shui consultation from me?

Called CS and have confirmed that existing cardholders will enjoy the benefits.
Also confirmed that supplementary cardholders also get to enjoy separate max limitations for cash rebates.
Eg: petrol RM30pm is for each cardholder regardless is principal or supplementary.

But......... bhp SMART cash reduced to only 1% effective from 1st july

If what you have mentioned is correct, one can enjoy unlimited rebate on petrol purchase by having many supplementary cards. Use supplementary card to pump petrol once the main card RM30 quota hit. Then, use the next supplementary card and so on..

I don't think UOB is stupid enough to allow this loophole.

Bro, nothing to do with your feng shui comments lah, it was the Amazon.com casing your posted that prevent RFID scanning

Thanks for the feed back. How about Carrefour, Giant and Tesco? Also movie at GSC?

Its marketing la not stupidity.
Uob is merely responding to many other cards that offer petrol rebates. Their 2% smart cash on just bhp was a little lame.
As an user of the Oneplatinum myself for many years with 2 supplementary, i find it useful now to retain the card.

She only pointed out to me about bhp smart cash being reduced… not sure about others...sorry
Anyways, an updated merchant listing will be up soon apparently to reflect the new promo on smart cash.

i also called their CS, but the guy oso blur, need to wait on hold..

1st he told me no cash rebate on bhp, only 2% smart cash. then i asked him 'are you sure?', put on hold, he come back tel me got rebate 5% on all petrol, 2% on giant carefour tesco cold storage. 5% on GSC tickets.

Also,
2% SMART$ for bhp
2% SMART$ for tesco giant carefour (minimum spend rm100) - max 2k per month

This card looks good. It's easy to get the annual fee waived! Might just give up my Citibank Cash Back VISA Platinum for this UOB One Card. The 5% cash back at cinema is particular attractive to me. I do have two Citibank credit cards but the problem is, there is no TGV in Sabah and i can't take advantage of their buy 1 free 1 promotion

By the way, i just noticed they have migrated to a newly designed website. Well, not really new anyway as UOB Singapore introduced this new website last year. It's certainly thousand times better than the old website. It gives UOB a more professional look

Waiting for new GSC promos from other banks, as i frequent GSC alot more than TGV. currently which one has the best promo for GSC? Eon right?
