Yup, technically it's not a rebate but a special rm12 fee for 24-months BT instead. I need to BT so it's worth it.

I received the follow-up call around 4:45PM yesterday : All my transactions >RM1 will get SMS from 30 June 2014 onwards.

When I performed online transactions, I get the OTP SMS but not a SMS transaction alert upon completion of transaction (i.e. merchant page says OK).... is this normal for you as well ?

for the online transactions, think it's a standard norm as OTP had been send to one's registered phone no. and in order for the transaction to go thru, one need to key in the OTP. Therefore, it's sort of an acknowledgement by the account holder of the validity of the transaction.

swiping physically don't need OTP so a SMS had to be sent to notify one of any transaction occurred and for the account holder to contact the bank in case of unauthorized transactions.

Most banks have the below policy

Will there be a situation where customers won't receive an SMS alert for transactions?
Yes - they will not receive an SMS alert for transaction when:
1) the transaction amount is below the preset SMS alert threshold
2) the online transaction is performed through a 3D secure site
customers have opted not to receive SMS transaction alerts

Yes, same thing for me. Only OTP for online transactions.

guys, have anyone tried buying apps on google play/itunes app store and check whether it is considered online transaction thus eligible for 6% rebate?

I got my pins 2 weeks ago but I don't receive the card yet.
On my application letter, I ticked to have the card send to my office but when i talk to customer service this morning, she mentioned PB don't send card to office... If we need the card to be delivered to office, need to write in separately.

Now, I requested them to send the card to the nearest branch so I can go & collect it myself.. It will take additional one week

A bit disappointed with their service

How do we qualify for the 6% rebate for insurance payment? Do we need to link the card to pbebank and pay from pbebank?

Online Payment via PBeBank will NOT get you 6%.

Try to check UOB PayOnline if there's any Insurance provider and use the PBB Visa Signature to pay...this way you get 6%

Ok, in that case do we have to personally login to the insurance website and make through the insurance website to qualify?

Technically, any form of online payment (even using other banks portal online which accept 3rd party cards) except thru pbebank portal in order to be eligible for the 6% rebate.

Thank you all for the clarification. Seems like my insurance provider is not part of the UOB Payonline

Have you tested UOB payonline for the 6%?

if your insurance company has the online payment feature in their website.

so UOBPayonline for TNB, Syabas and Telekom confirm can get 6% ?
