Im using both UOB One Card and MBB2card. The UOB One card is not as good as before already unless you have the platinum card and places that is included in $mart merchant. For One Card, the 5% petrol rebate is capped at RM20 only drop from RM30. Other feature by this card except cinema lose out to MBB2card.
#Savings for maximize petrol rebate for 1 year = 12x20 = RM240.
#RM240 - RM50 GST (no point at all to offset) = RM190.
#In case if they dont waive/not eligible 60x usage per year will be charged annual fee.
Just my personal opinion tho. I still swipe the UOB whenever place that does not accept amex. 0.3% for all other transaction vs 1x point on MBB Visa/Master = 0.5% is meh... In terms of customer support at branches, UOB act more professionally.
this is not an argue, i am just comparing your statement with my personal usage experiences.
1. u said petrol rebate capped at rm 20, but, my statement till May still get RM 30 REBATE on fuel. you never mentioned if platinum or other card. i believe most people using platinum card, right ?
2. i do not know anything about cinema, as i very seldom go to cinema.
3. 60 times swipe for annual fees waived. i been using credit cards for more than 10 years, for the past 10 years, i never ever pay annual fees in those years.
come on, think about it, u are helping bank to make profits, at the same time, u get some saving in term of rebate and points, yet u still want to pay fees to the blood sucking bank ?
remember, our blr is still one of the top at 6.6%. if you have a housing loan, u make your own calculation of the amortization system, u will be very surprised how much Bank make profit from you.
