I won this PBB PB too. But I'm curious why did they (marketing company) send me the PB so fast.

did you noticed the PBB SPay win note 8 campaign, is supposed to last till 30 April 2018?

and one of the TNC says only 1 prize for each customer for entire campaign (either grand or monthly) .

does that mean they are announcing/"disqualifying" most of the eligible customers?

something hanky panky going on?
*
From what I read and understood is that the top spender of the month will get the Note 8, and the next 100 will get the battery pack. So in other words, there should be 3 units of Note 8 given out for the entire campaign from 29 January to 30 April. The one that they have just given out is for the 29 January to 28 February month. Since we have gotten the gift for the first month, we won't be able to get any gifts for the next 2 months.

Yes that's what I understood and agree with what you said except the last line.

Campaign runs from 29 January to 30 April 2018. Shouldn't they wait until at least 1 May to tally up the results and award the phone/PB accordingly?

e.g. i spend 500/1000/600, then i'd probably win a PB for month 2 etc.

BUT

e.g. if I spend 1K for 1st month, 5K 2nd month, and 20K 3rd month and if the top spenders are around 10K, then we should be able to win the Note 8 on 3rd month.

instead of just a power bank on 1st month, and 'disqualified' for month 2 & 3 due to T&C stating cardmember entitled to only 1 campaign gift.
if we follow the above example, marketing company insiders have just removed all the potentially top spenders on 1st month itself and leave themselves with 2 easy Note 8.
*
Ooh.....Now I get what you meant. Guess that's just not the way they run it. But they still get our spending for 2 months already since we didn't know the results for first month until end of 2nd month. So those who won for the 1st month will hold back now for the 3rd month.

another way to look at it is to give chance for people who are late to join, i.e. new card members or any person who saw this campaign and got motivated to sign up in time to join the 2nd or 3rd month.

the onus is on the participants to follow and play around the rules to benefit.

for example, if you expenct you will be spending more on the 2nd month then don't do any transaction on spay one the first month, just use the physical card.

that's my opinion though.
*
Good point of view. It all depends on what is their objective in this campaign.

I don't know about your case but for me, I was pretty dead set to aim for it for 1st month. I think it should be the easiest one since they just announced and many will still be unaware. Some big spenders might apply new card and start using on 2nd and 3rd campaign.

What my miscalculations was is the threshold limits. Was being told wrong info by cs until one final call that actually have the right tnc. I was unable to use my pbb card for all those declined transactions which could have doubled my spending.

I think given how they laid the tnc, my strategy wad pretty clear from day1. Aim for one month and light it up.
*
What is the threshold limit? What is the reason for declined transactions?

Now that you mentioned it, it does look like gold. I just felt like it's a bit too pinky to call it gold. Something like bronze colour.

Haha... that's the same one. I was trying to imagine gear iconx kind of pink. biggrin.gif

I looked it up, it's actually called pink gold. So you are right too.

Theoretically it seems possible. Just make sure you remember to link Bixby and Samsung Rewards again before you up your level.

I too totally stopped once I hit level 16. But I know there is a forumer here who leveled up to Level 17, even though he didn't get any reward points.

Haha....that would be me. Trying to find out what would happen upon reaching Level 17. biggrin.gif

I still use it occasionally, mostly for settings that are too deep in the list.

Me too. I still use it once in awhile for the quick command, but since the Oreo update, some settings have changed, so my previously set quick command can't be used anymore.

You should try Tesco self-service counters. And if you have Tesco card, can add that into spay too.

Even though I read from others that PBB card can have 9 consecutive spay before using the physical card, and Samsung CS also said that 10th transaction we have to use physical card with pin, that wasn't the case for me. The other day my 8th spay got rejected as "frequent limit exceeded'. Yesterday my 4th spay got declined and I had to reset with pin. PBB CS said they don't know the limit. The system will determine it.

It's a common assurance, even in other banks' cards. In my case RHB. I keep track of my transactions for this exact reason. Rhb can go up to 30 transactions or RM1000 cumulative or 10 transactions in a day, but sometimes I have to reset not even before 10 transactions or reaching the amount limit. When I called the bank CS they said I have reached the limit when I know for a fact I haven't. Lol.

Good info to know. I'll have to plan better on spay and pin usage in the future. Thanks.

if you feel your card giving alot problems just change it. I am using maybank i was able to make 50 transaction a day during the X2 spay rewards. No point keep complaining about the card
*
Sorry if it sounded like a complain. It wasn't meant to be a complain. In fact, I like my card. I don't have to pay any annual fee and there's always rebate on top of the usual monthly cash rebate. It definitely beats paying cash. I just wanted to understand better from others so that I could maximise my spay usage. I can then plan my usage better in the future. I do read comments from you guys, think about them and try to apply them.

I actually took your advice and I'm now pumping BHP.

Thanks.

This happen to me too. And, have no idea if the limit of transaction got any time frame or not, like rm250 per day for MBB visa. This pbb doesn't seems to have time frame on its x times limit.
*
It seems like the quota is not fixed. I had 5 spay transactions on Sun, then 2 on Mon, and then didn't use it until Thu, it said frequent limit exceeded.

Oh btw, I tried once with a RM300 transaction, no problem at all. Machine prompted me for pin.

Saw this in one of the restaurants. The restaurant accepts cash only, but they have this MBB QR payment. Credit card is not accepted, hence Samsung Pay loses out.

The Note 8 contest is from today until 15 May. So maximum number of transactions will be 100, 50 from this month and 50 for May. That is if a person has not done any transactions this month. So for those who have already made some transactions this month, then chances will be lower. I think it's meant to get those who don't use spay much to use more now. First 5 will get Note 8, and the next 50 to get battery pack.
