Hi IBQ fans, please tell how does IBQ 5% Cash Back work? Does it give you 5% back for a period of time, with a capped value?

I tried to check their website but could not find these fine prints anywhere.

Any comment?

I travel globally with my work. I use CBQ ATM, Visa card and withdraw cash with no problems.

I have an account at HSBC too. They don't have branches at Villagio or Landmark, they only work from 8:00 to 13:00, not very convenient.

To the OP. Just pick one. Some will be for that bank, others against it. THe interest rates are very similar, as are the services they offer. The choice is ultimately your own.

Never had a problem with CBQ, actually did have a bit of a problem but they sorted that out so good enough for me. Go for CBQ.
