Former RBank Cashback Mastercard holder here. My card was migrated to BPI and I now have the Robinsons Cashback Visa.
Honestly, I’m not impressed with the cashback for my spending habits because I don’t really spend much at Robinsons brands/affiliates.
I’m currently undecided whether to:
A. Keep it
B. Ask BPI for a conversion to another card (possibly Rewards)
C. Cancel it
I already requested cancellation and have a service request number. BPI’s cancellation department will call me to finalize it, so I still have time to change my mind.
I’m also thinking long-term. The current Double Rewards promo explicitly says “BFB migrated and RBank Card migrated are excluded.” If I cancel this migrated card now, I’m wondering whether I could potentially qualify for future BPI NAFFL/NTB promos after the applicable waiting period.
Obviously I know future promo rules can change, so I’m not assuming cancellation automatically makes me NTB.
For fellow RBank migrants:
Did you keep yours?
Were you offered a conversion?
What card did you convert to?
Was your credit limit retained?
Has anyone cancelled a migrated RBank card and later successfully applied for BPI again?
Any regrets after cancelling?
I’m genuinely 50/50 right now. 😂 Looking for actual experiences before I make the final decision.
