I was offered an upgrade to Visa Infinite by UOB. First year annual fee is waived and subsequent annual fee waived by swiping 24 transactions or spend 50k per year.

Should I take it?

I was offered the same upgrade. Gonna take it and still keep my One card for petrol cash back.

Did the telemarketer told you it's either 24 transactions OR 50k per year? I asked but she say they will see the transactions and if you call them to waive for following years, it'll usually be waived. Also, the girl told me first 2 years annual fee is waived. Did you take the offer?

Mine will due in Feb, let's see whether they will waive the AF and if they do, whether the priority pass feature is renewed as well.

Should be renewed annually right? 4 entries a year (based on their latest T&C) for VI.

Just received and activated my VI card. rclxm9.gif

Does online bill payments or online shopping count as one of the 3 swipes to waive the first RM50 GST?

Stupid UOB gave me both VI and Lady's card so I have to swipe 3 times within 60 days on each card to waive the RM50 GST. Understand even if I don't activate the Lady's card, I'm still responsible to pay the GST.

I'm quite fierce though when come to CS..... I tell the operator, "what for you give me something that I don't wan to begin with? And furthermore want me spend 3 times for what? Does it make sense to u?"

Haha I'll try that next time, when I wanna cancel the Lady card since it's totally useless for me. I really wanted the VI though, guess that made me less fierce also. sweat.gif

when i read your first comment, you sound like person who is fierce and strict. tongue.gif but in reality you are not fierce enough? hmm.gif

yes, even though you don't activate it you still responsible to pay the gst. anyway, online bill payments or online shopping count as a swipe.

tips: you may split your bill payment to smaller amount to be counted as a few swipes. or swipe at petrol stations (at the pump) with small amount like rm1 each. brows.gif

I'm not fierce in reality tongue.gif Only time I was scolding over the phone to the CS was when Airasia cancelled my free ticket flight to somewhere I was really looking forward to go and did not inform me at all until I found out about it from my friend. That one really angry la, otherwise I cannot fierce. laugh.gif

Anyway, yesterday sunday shopping already swipe 3 times for VI, now wait for the other card so I can pay my insurance and some utility bills online. biggrin.gif

I feel you. I received two cards too sad.gif
but on the side note, it's great to know that online transaction is counted as a swipe smile.gif

Yup! Or some people spilt their petrol transactions into 3 times since any amount also can. biggrin.gif
