What is not clear from T&C, if you meet the 16x swipe early on (say 1st day of month) and the pool runs out on 10th day of month, does your spending after the 10th day get cashback? Otherwise really like PBB, have to quickly spend 1st day to get cashback...

Especially difficult since Payonline spending not counted as online for YOLO if I recall.

Ya limited to few merchants in uopayonline like maxis, digi, celcom.
Pay using maxispay is safest bet, means need to overpay like several months ahead.

Well for convenience I guess can do the following:-

Pay RMX (your total bill for TNB) via some Shopee seller.
Pay RMY (your total Unifi bill) via TM's website.
Pay RMZ (your total telco bill) via payonline or your telco website.

And then swipe 13xRM1 on payonline for something or other (maybe your telco).

8% cashback on the 3 bills if all paid on the 1st =)

Grab Petronas Giftcards (RM95) at Lazada every 1st afternoon (Lazada not following MY time zone for card transactions) of the month, if available. Better than petrol rebate scheme on other credit cards.  thumbup.gif

Still doesn't help with the multiple swipe requirement. Agree that its better than other petrol rebate scheme cards.

UOB think you are so fool playing like this "backdoor" of t&c with keep swipe (until card chip burn out) at least 8 times.
*
Chip burn out? From buying things online? Even if I shred my card I can still buy things online eh...

Also the 16 transactions must be from Online & Dining (5%/8% cashback categories) or can include other transactions that do not give 5%/8% rebate (just like HLB Wise).
*
If does not state 8/16 must be from certain categories than it should be 'any swipe'.

And for ease of bank calculation I think they'll do a running total. So there'll be a cutoff day at which the amount is exhausted. Let's say you have spent 14x with total RM500 spend by 8th of the month, you will get 5%. Other people at that point also got some cashback. If on the 9th you spend 2x more, but the cashback pool finishes on 8th, don't think UOB gonna be so tak han to increase your amount (and so have to deduct some cashback from latecomer).

Don't think too hard, basically.

so can get 2 x RM50 cash back for Jan 2018, ie Rm50 based on TnC b4 5 Jan 2018, and another Rm50 based on TnC after 5 Jan 2018?
*
No one here can confirm to you.

My opinion is, no way bank will be so generous to give you double cb in a month.

Thanks for your feedback on the above. I think RM1 doesn't work on Payonline (see below) and I may have to top up some transactions to meet the eligibility criteria.
*
If RM2 successful I got no issue doing RM2 instead....

Both of Payonline transactions to pay TNB (RM1.00++) were successful and posted in my unbilled statement. This should be confirmed right, even though I didn't receive any email notification.
*
Odd, mine failed. Gonna try again tonight I guess.

Did you do exactly RM1 or RM1.01 or something else?

This type of top spender contest.
If you own a shop with CC machine can win already.

My friend won a Rolex from Maybank this way

But if you own the shop, you're paying the 1.x-2% charge on the amount you swipe..... worth it? What if you don't win because some businessman decided it's a good time to swipe a few hundred k on some UT?
