UOB Lady's TV Ad

I don't watch much TV in Singapore because it has terrible, terrible ads. Such as this one.

If you are a tempestuous lady go get this credit card!

UOB have launched an exclusive new version of their Lady's Solitaire - the Rose Gold! The card comes in shiny rose gold metal with some exclusive new benefits on top of the standard Solitaire.

Rose Gold Qualification

Spend $45,000 (yes, that is three zeros) between 30th June and 30th September 2016 on your existing UOB Lady card
$588 annual fee waivable for first year

Rose Gold Benefits

$1000 of ecommerce fraud protection.
$20 rebate on taxi rides (first 200 customers per month)
20% discounts at selected Metro stores in July (how anyone will have qualified for the card by then is beyond me)
Some free champagne events
Plus all the regular Solitaire benefits.

Is the UOB Lady's Rose Gold Solitaire worth it?

Well, if I were a lady, I would not go out of my way to hit the $45K minimum spend just for an extra shiny credit card, but if you were planning to buy a car or something before the end of September sure, why not?

UOB Lady's Solitaire

UOB Lady's Solitaire offers 10x UNI$, which is equivalent to 4 miles/$ on the following spend:

• Luxury retailers in Singapore
• Department stores in Singapore
• Overseas shopping at stores where the main business is "clothes, shoes, jewelry and bags"
• Online shopping spend where the main business is "clothes, shoes, jewelry and bags"
• Taxi fares in SG

The card also comes with the following benefits:

• Access to members only China Club
• Seat upgrades at Marina Bay Sands Theatre
• Pan Pacific Discovery Black Membership
• Free weekend parking at Forum, Paragon and 313@Somerset.

However, buried in the T&Cs there is a minimum spend of $3000 and maximum spend of $5000 on which you can earn the bonus 9x UNI$, otherwise its just 1 UNI$.

Annual fee of $406.20 waived for the first year.

You also must be a female. Sorry males.

Minimum annual income of $120,000.

Should you get this card? If you spend $3000 a month on 'shopping' and take a lot of taxis then absolutely yes. Otherwise probably not. Stick to UOB Preferred Platinum Visa and earn 10x UNI$ on far more transactions.
