The standard
If we publish a figure or material qualification that turns out to be wrong, we correct the page and add an entry to this log. A field-level correction does not re-verify every other term: source-record dates and Pending limitations remain explicit, and a whole-card verification date is not silently reset. The log is permanent — corrections do not vanish once the page is fixed.
Material corrections include: any monetary figure (annual fee, FX fee, welcome bonus value, salary band), any eligibility detail (minimum salary, salary-transfer requirement, residency rule), and any recommendation reversal (e.g. moving a card off our "best of" list because new information surfaced).
Typo fixes, layout changes, and routine updates to refresh-stamped figures (where the bank changed the value, not us) are not logged here — those happen continuously and the editorial policy covers the verification cadence.
Recent corrections
— Residual comparison claims about salary floors and unrestricted returns (5 cards)
Original: our curated Liv/Wio comparison still said both had no salary floor, despite the earlier salary corrections. Other comparison verdicts treated Liv as ungated, widened ADCB subscription rewards or implied unrestricted Mashreq returns.
Corrected: the comparison decks and verdicts now retain the account-plan, spend-tier, credit-limit and merchant-channel conditions. They no longer claim that either Liv or Wio has no salary floor, and they do not declare a return winner where the conditions are not modelled. The affected HSBC comparison also states that unresolved eligibility prevents a qualification recommendation. These are corrections to our copy, not newly announced issuer changes; the previously corrected card figures remain unchanged.
— Reward restrictions, alternative eligibility and unconfirmed fee bases (9 cards)
Original: we described Mashreq Cashback as uncapped and supplied unrestricted return examples. Some ADCB reviews presented salary as the only qualifying route, and our ADCB subscription wording was broader than the eligible merchants. HSBC Live+ salary and interest claims and a Standard Chartered interest basis also lacked consistent source support; some FX labels did not distinguish issuer-only processing from total conversion cost.
Corrected: Mashreq limits eligible statement-cycle spending to the assigned credit limit; its unmodelled return examples are withdrawn, and conflicting general-spend wording is pending reconciliation. The captured ADCB product pages offer salary or an eligible-credit-limit route: the old numeric records are retained for audit but the qualification claims are Pending. The ADCB eligibility guide narrows subscriptions, reduced merchant categories and payment channels. HSBC Live+ conflicting salary/interest fields remain Pending; its issuer-processing fee is labelled with its VAT and separate possible scheme-charge basis. The Standard Chartered review uses the source-published monthly retail rate without inferring an annual equivalent. Reviews, relevant guide examples and shared displays carry the limitations. These are corrections to our presentation, not newly announced bank changes or whole-card re-verification; unreviewed fields and original verification dates were not silently reset.
— Liv Cashback eligibility and Cashback+ fee VAT treatment (2 cards)
Original: we said Liv did not publish a minimum salary for its Cashback and Cashback+ cards. Some card listings and the Finder treated both as having no minimum. We also stored Cashback+ joining and annual fees as AED 700 while labelling them as including VAT.
Corrected: the January 2026 Liv Key Facts Statement, checked on 5 November 2026, gives a minimum monthly salary of AED 5,000 for Cashback and AED 15,000 for Cashback+, and Cashback+ joining and annual fees of AED 735 including VAT each. The product page quotes the fees before VAT. We corrected our data, reviews, bank page and affected guides, not a newly announced bank rule or fee change. Salary requirements are separate from cashback spend thresholds and do not guarantee approval. The joining-fee waiver requires a Liv Savings/Current Account with an ongoing Liv Max subscription before applying.
— VAT treatment on Citi and ADIB cashback card fees (2 cards)
Original: our Citi Cash Back and ADIB Cashback Visa fee displays added a “+ 5% VAT” label to amounts that already included VAT.
Corrected: the amounts are AED 315 including VAT for Citi when the annual fee applies, and AED 103.95 including VAT for ADIB. We corrected the labels, not the stored amounts, after checking the Citi product page and the ADIB product page and its linked fee schedule on 4 November 2026. Citi’s first-year and ongoing spend waivers are separate conditions.
— Wio Credit minimum salary (1 card)
Original: our Wio Credit review, the Wio bank page and our card-eligibility guide said Wio publishes no minimum salary for its credit card, and the review showed the salary bar as "Pending".
Corrected: Wio's Personal Credit key facts statement (effective August 2026, re-read 3 November 2026) requires a monthly salary of AED 7,000 or above, ages 21 to 65, UAE residency and employment, and at least 3 months in the job. The review, card data, bank page and guide were corrected on 3 November 2026.
— ADCB talabat earn structure and ENBD Duo base rate (2 cards)
Original: our ADCB talabat review said the card paid a flat 1.25% back, and its card data recorded the earn as "1 talabat Pro per AED 1" on a Visa. Our ENBD Duo review said spend below the AED 5,000 monthly threshold earned 0.5% in the bonus categories.
Corrected: ADCB's product page (read 22 October 2026) gives 35% back as talabat credit on the first 10 talabat orders each month (up to AED 35 an order, AED 350 a month, with AED 2,500 of monthly retail spend), 1.25% on other spend and 0.35% in ten listed categories; the card is a Mastercard, and talabat pro is a free delivery membership, not a points currency. Emirates NBD's page gives the Duo 1.5% in the bonus categories below the threshold, and 0.5% on all other spend; our card data was right and the review had the two rates swapped. Both reviews, the talabat card data and our no-annual-fee guide were corrected on 22 October 2026.
— ENBD LuLu 247 Titanium, Skywards lounge networks and Liv welcome bonus (5 cards)
Original: we listed lounge access on the LuLu 247 Titanium with an AED 8,000 minimum salary and out-of-date earn rates; we gave the Skywards Signature six DragonPass lounge visits a year and the Skywards Infinite DragonPass access; and we showed a 10,000 Skywards Miles welcome bonus on the Liv Cashback cards.
Corrected: Emirates NBD's product pages (read 19 October 2026): the LuLu 247 Titanium's lounge access was discontinued from 1 May 2025, its minimum salary is AED 5,000 and it earns 3.5% at LuLu, 2% on fuel, 1% on utilities and 0.35% elsewhere; both Skywards cards use Visa Airport Companion, unlimited on the Signature. The Liv "10,000 Miles" figure was the monthly cap on converting to Skywards, not a welcome bonus, so the bonus is now shown as none. The reviews, card data and comparisons were corrected on 19–20 October 2026.
— FAB Elite and FAB World Elite earn rates (2 cards)
Original: we said the FAB Elite earned 1 FAB Reward per AED 1 on everyday spend, and valued FAB Rewards at AED 0.02 each, which put its luxury-spend return at 40% (AED 4,000 a month at the cap). We said the FAB World Elite earned 10 FAB Rewards per AED 1 on international spend and 1 on everything else. Neither base rate, nor the 10× international rate, had a primary source.
Corrected: FAB's Rewards terms and conditions (April 2025, version 4) give both cards 5 FAB Rewards per AED 1 on domestic and international spend, and 0.5 in excluded categories such as supermarkets, fuel and utilities. The World Elite has no international bonus. The same terms equate 334,000 FAB Rewards to AED 1,000 (the FAB Cashback card's monthly cap), so we now use an indicative AED 0.003 each, and the FAB Elite's luxury return at the cap is about 6% (AED 600 a month). Both reviews, their card data and our premium-cards guide were corrected on 1 October 2026.
— ENBD Darna partner network (3 cards)
Original: our reviews of the Darna Select, Darna Signature and Darna Infinite described the cards' 10%/7.5%/6.25% partner earn as applying at Emaar destinations — Dubai Mall, Address hotels, Reel Cinemas — and recommended them to Dubai-based Emaar spenders.
Corrected: Darna is Aldar's loyalty programme. The partner earn applies at Aldar destinations — Yas Mall, Yas Island theme parks, Aldar hotels, spas and golf courses in Abu Dhabi — per the Emirates NBD product pages, verified 11 June 2026. All three reviews were rewritten the same day; the cards are now framed for Aldar-community residents and Yas Island regulars, which is who they actually serve. The Darna Infinite's fee break-even was also corrected from "roughly AED 15,000 a month" of partner spend to roughly AED 1,300 a month — the original figure misread an annual threshold as monthly.
— ADCB foreign-currency fee (10 cards)
Original: we listed the foreign-currency transaction fee on ten ADCB cards as 0.525%, and the ADCB Essential Cashback review promoted that figure as a reason to get the card.
Corrected: the published fee is 2.99%, per the ADCB Schedule of Fees Ver.46 (February 2026). The 0.525% figure was ADCB's charge for cash deposits and withdrawals in foreign currency — a different line in the same fee schedule — picked up in error by our data pipeline. All ten card pages were corrected the same day, and the Essential Cashback review's argument was rebuilt around the true cost of overseas spend. The ADCB Traveller, which genuinely carries 0% FX, was unaffected.
