- Fee waiver process was much quicker than expected! I used the in-app chat function and the customer support was able to provide assistance and address my request really promptly. Great card for general spending.

The Amex True Cashback Card is a super low-effort gives you 1.5% cashback on anything. In the first 6 months of card membership, you receive 3% cashback. Worth the application!0

Approval was very fast and cleared within 2 weeks. Customer Service called shortly a few days after, to clarify the ongoing promotions and clear any further quesries and doubts. Also gave me card hacks like using Amex to top up Grab Wallet to hit minimum spending and for bill payments, etc) Can't comment on fee waivers as it's only my first month, but I enjoyed using the cashback card so far and only regret not applying for it earlier.0

[Cashback Card] [Promotions and Perks] New users get 3% cashback for the first 6 months, which is fantastic. Also, just learn from the reviewer below that you can top up your Grab wallet with the True Cashback Card and still enjoy cashback from Amex. Can't enjoy this perk with Citi Cards. I've also received S$365 worth of Bitcoin as a sign-up bonus. You can still get this deal if you sign up for Amex Cards through Seedly by 31 Oct 2021.0

3% Cashback up to a total of S$5,000 and first 6 months, after which it becomes 1.5% cashback. One small tip is to use it for GrabPay top-ups, as it counts toward your cashback (not like other credit cards), so overall this card is not bad!0

[Customer Service] Arguably one of the best customer service I have received. Upon receiving the card, I have downloaded the mobile app to activate my card and set up the mobile app account, but failed to do it over the app and was informed to call their customer service hotline instead. Managed to get hold of a customer service lady very quickly, after verifying my identity she immediately gave me a temporary password and walked me through to set up and log into my online account, before guiding me to change to my preferred password. While most customer service tends to stop at this stage after my immediate issue of setting up my mobile app account is resolved, she went through the extra mile to navigate me on some of the key functions of their mobile app. After which she also told me the different methods to pay the monthly bill and almost instantly she sent me an email on this. When I told her that I prefer to do a monthly GIRO payment instead, she told me that she will mail over the GIRO application form as the bank requires to receive the physical copy. What surprises me was that she even asked when is my preferred date to start the billing cycle and she changed the billing date for me. Really went through the extra mile as my initial objective of the call is to set up my mobile app account.0

- Fast application and ease of usage. One of the highest cash rebate offer if you have to spend right now! Look out for promotions with free gifts! Caveat you need to be a new member i.e. do not hold that bank's credit card for the past 1 year.

Great cashback card! Useful for grab pay top-ups as the cashback is applicable for grab pay. Have been using this to top up my grab pay wallet to gain cashback & also points from grab pay. Double the rewards! Pros: - Unlimited cashback - Able to use to top up grab pay Cons: - Pretty low at 1.5% compared to the Citibank cashback + card (1.6%) or the new UOB card If you're looking for a fuss free cashback credit card, this will be a good option to consider!0

- customer service was helpful and easy to get through. easier to get rebates as they have a short and easy to read exclusion list. hopefully other banks follow this as most banks have super long and hard to decipher exclusion lists. cons: much fewer acceptance points

- Very good card, only been using for two months but great way to earn 3% cash back no matter what you are purchasing. (3% on the first $5k within first 6 months, 1.5% thereafter) [Useful For topping up your grabpay and spending from there to clock your grabpay points as well!] Not sure on the fee waiver but I guess I’ll find out next year!
