from my watson reload earlier this month, they reload via TnG terminal first (ePay). Reload receipt printed, then scanned into counter terminal. from this terminal, watson's receipt showed 2 separate items/lines: RM100 TnG reload and -RM5 for rebate (this part, is automated in their system upon recognizing TnG reload "sku").

from victorywp's reload, it seems there's no hardcoded linkage, technically can reload any TnG card and still get the 5% rebate. The stated T&C is just probably "soft" policy and not defined in the system

cc cannot, must use cash.

can't remember the name but he is a nice malay guy.

at first i asked him whether i must use the watson vip card or just the normal watson card will do?
he said just the normal watson card will do.
then i quickly use my old watson card and top up my non-watson tng card.

yeah, as long as they can key-in a valid watson card id into the payment system, then they can give you the 5% rebate. then you may use any tng card to be reloaded on their tng terminal.

yalor, can "enjoy" this little loophole.

hope they dont have hard-cap/quota on the rebate. Planning to reload RM600 (6xRM100) which will last me for 4 months of toll usage.

i think they surely still have rm600 for you to reload. if it's really so popular i think they may have ended this promo well before 21/5.

RM600 reload done!

staff said need watson card to qualify for rebate. gave him my watson tng card. forgotten to ask if i can reload to another tng card along with the watson card

even got free GLOW magazine, worth RM4 (RM3 for member) no sure how much transaction to get free mag.


interestingly, their POS terminal will detect mutliple reloads in 1 single receipt (1st reload will be charged RM95, 2nd reload will get charged RM100). So staff did 6 separate transactions, 1 after another. <-- by doing so, i'm also getting 6x entries for the Mini contest

the supervisor said, if i got the Mini, remember to honk when passing by his outlet

so you went to the ss15 outlet?
the nice malay guy right?

yeah, got both malay guys there. sporting and rilek only one shorter with a mohawk (trainee) who did the work. another taller guy which is the supervisor.

when i took out my cash, the trainee got shocked for a second, and said need to check the 'TnG credit quota' availability. luckily no issue.

i noticed most tng reload merchants (watsons or petronas) has a certain credit allocation. technically same as mobile reload at tesco, 7E, etc. they all have a fixed allocation. if credit is low or depleted, they'll need HQ to replenish their outlet's credit bucket.

oh well, credit card or cash reload, as long as i get instant rebate/discounted reload, i'm all but happy. now i dont have to hunt for reload for 4 more months.

yeah, yesterday night i asked that mohawk trainee at first, but then the supervisor came and attended to me.
great, so you can slowly enjoy your tng until next quarter. lol...

haha yeah, no rush using, but not choice due to daily travelling *FML*

problem with tng is no other merchants are giving discounted reload. petrol stations have surcharge, bank ATMs have service charge. tng spot/hub/watson have flat reload. no incentives to reload.

so far watson's direct rebate is the best, at the moment.

Kindly check 1st post still stating it accepts Amex @ MYMYDIN BANDAR TUN HUSSEIN ONN 1

can we use tng credit to buy stuffs in watson?

in this way, you get 5% discount on all watson's items?

Nope... then TnG may charge you 5% service charge like Parking with TnG

Yep then i can reload more to utilise my tng credit somewhere else beside tolls and lrt stations.

i already reload using citi cash back card at petronas kinrara last 2 weeks due to this citibank cash back promotion

Aiming to get the additional 30% cash back beside getting the 5% from petrol transactions..

yes, actually you can buy Watson's products using TnG.

this was mentioned by the SS15's Watson outlet supervisor. He said if I didnt win the Mini car, he asked me to drop by his outlet to purchase their products with the TnG card (I was reloading a huge sum into the VIP card ).


this begs another question: can I use any TnG card to pay? or must use Watson's VIP+TnG card?

my best guess is, technically = any TnG card will do, policy-wise = no idea

What is the current price for SmartTag? any promotion on-going?

thinking of getting the zing card to link to Amex, 2% fee and if 'control' nicely can get 5% and at least confirmed 5X TP.

ya, this is convenience I would say... confirmed to get x5 point which indirect to offset RM2 reload fee..

I do have tries few times auto reload during weekends, sometimes it will be flow on weekends
