Bank of China Family Card
BOC a bit messed disorganized - took more than a month to get card going - almost gave up before call out of blue 3 weeks in asking for some more documents and then another week before approval letter/card received. The cashback benefits used to be quite strong but then the bank keeps on changing around requirements (witnessed two program changes in 12 months) and a hassle to use really. Gave up on first year renewal coz wavier was more trouble than it is worth.0 comments0 - Updated on 13 Jun 2019Well, this card is alright. nothing much i can complain about. serve as a decent credit card for casual spending monthly. 1 thing to note is that the annual fee is $230 and the fee waiver process takes at least 2 working week before you get any notification.1 comment1Scared Lose

I wanted a bank of China card, thinking I can link it to Alipay. I was wrong. 😑 - Updated on 13 Jun 2019Have been using this card for the past 6 months plus. Hands down this was one of my favourite cards which I selected after doing an assessment here: https://blog.seedly.sg/best-cashback-cards-for-working-adults-in-2017/ Pros: - One of the highest for dining (10%) but capped at $30 per billing cycle - Same for online and supermarket purchases which stands at 5% - Additional interest for your savings account if you are on the BOC SmartSaver account - Ideal for larger family sizes where this can be your main utility cards Cons: - They changed the min spend from $500 to $700 last month (April 2018) which kinda sucks :( - Beyond that, some of the caps include categories like dining and online at $30 each a month - This is the main reason why I am giving it only 4 stars and not 5 stars - Cashback was delayed for 2 months before and the UI on the app kinda is not good LOL - But the customer service called me up to check on the status etc which is not bad Overall, I may be switching to a miles card depending on our progress as a couple. And if my spending drops below $700 per month. But we'll see, in the meantime, it's nice to get good cashback monthly :)2 comments1Hoon Thien Rong

Do you know if online spending includes qoo10?Justin20 Jan 2020
Yes qoo10 qualifies as online spend - Updated on 10 Aug 2018A new review after one year. The refused to waive the annual fee fully even though my spend is prolly above 10k per year. The still charged a total of $50 for one main and one supp card. That said, I'm still going to use it because the rebates are pretty good so far for rebates. I might stop once I change to a full points/miles system.0 comments0
