Any advice on what card to use for Uber rides? Currently linked to my Citi PM Amex and also getting SPG points, but was looking to see if I can do better. Unfortunately the prepaid cards don't work. Guessing the transactions come in as offline charges so cards with online bonus also wouldn't work. Thanks.

Hey Everyone,

I read back in February that EZ-link auto top-ups with Citibank cards (except Citi SMRT card) will no longer be eligible for miles/rewards.

Is there a list of such exceptions somewhere online? I checked the shared google spreadsheet as well as Citibank's website and T&Cs but could not find such list..

That would be helpful.

Cheers

Guys, if you are thinking to get extra points buying ticket from Expedia, please be careful.

I suspect Expedia stored our credit card information.

I just had a long conversation with Expedia Customer Service who told me because I was complaining about the double charges they did to me.

He hanged up on me after I rejected his offer of $50 voucher and keep insisting him to explain how on earth Expedia can charge me the second time on my CC. (through out the conversation he tried to "confuse" me that that double charges is pre-authorization)

To my knowledge, when I do purchase online, the CC information that I enter will directly go to payment gateway, which then will contact the merchant bank to do per-authorization. Once the per-authorization is approved, the merchant has x days (normally 7-14 days) to settle this transaction to the merchant bank which will then post it to my CC bank.

Without me, entering my credit card information again, there is no way for the merchant to again charge my CC, not to mention 2-3 months later.

So the fact Expedia can charge me again in Feb-2015 (when I did the transaction in Dec-2014) lead me to the conclusion that Expedia DOES store our CC information.

So be careful.

I am still getting points on ez-reload (automatic top up) I think the wording was such that you don't get points on manual top up to Ezilink card.

Hello,
WOndering if there are any Singapore-issued credit cards that give you Gold Status with Krisflyer?
Thanks!

With respect to Citibank Singapore helping you out, I'm pretty sure there is no legal credit card protection at all in Singapore like Section 75 in the UK for example, so it would be interesting to hear what comes of this. Good luck and I hope Expedia get what's coming to them if they have indeed deliberately charged twice.

Both of our favorite prepaid cards don't work. Uber does not process payments against such cards as a policy. At least that's what I have been told by them via email.

I'd do that too- complain with Citi and if they fail in their job, escalate to the MAS.

Isn't protection against fradulent and duplicated charges a feature of the card clearing organization (eg. AMEX, VISA, MC) which the card issuer needs to abide by regardless of which country the issuer resides?
