Just got my new card. Activated it, then set up Samsung Pay, and immediately went to the merchant with PBB terminal to try. 😭 Still the same. Problem is not solved. Same error on the screen, no receipt was printed, and card got charged, samsung pay showed successful transaction with reward points awarded. So I requested to use the AmBank terminal since the merchant has both, and receipt was printed out immediately. No problem with any terminal other than PBB. I give up!

Samsung Pay can be used with cards that do not support paywave.

My old PBB mastercard was a card without paywave, only can use pin. So when Samsung Pay started to accept PBB cards, I was so glad coz I could add the card into my Samsung Pay and use it to wave.

Yes, I have provided my feedback to PBB CS already. And right, now that I know the issue, I will either use my mastercard on Samsung Pay for PBB terminal or tap my physical visa card without using Samsung Pay.

I still hope that if any users who are using PBB Quantum Visa on Samsung Pay and manages to tap successfully on PBB card terminal to let me know. I'm just wondering if this only happens to me.

My understanding is that we have to key in the code via airasiabig app to have the 1100 points credited into our big account by 31 Oct. It doesn't mean that we have to use the points by 31 Oct.

Or use Big points to pay for your purchase via Fave. 125 big points = RM1

Use the big points on fave for discounts. Some places only accept favepay, but not credit card or other ewallet, so then can use fave.

While some places accept credit card but not ewallets, then samsung pay is still convenient.

I wanted a Samsung phone for Samsung Pay, not so much for the rewards, rewards is just a bonus. Who doesn't like rewards, right?

Oh ya.....it has been there for awhile, but I never clicked on it before.

Is this a new card? Is it already activated?

If it has already been activated but still cannot add, then you may need to call public bank and tell them your problem. Probably got to change a new card.

I have changed my Quantum Visa two times, only 3rd card is working perfectly now. First card can't make payment to merchant using PB card terminal. Second card still the same problem, plus physical card paywave not working too. Finally third card now, all can work.

Grabpay is giving 20% rebate up to RM12 with no mininum spending for in-store and online purchases from 31 Oct to 30 Dec 2019.

That should benefit Samsung Pay users. If more merchants can accept credit/debit card by just downloading an app onto their phone, then we can use Samsung Pay to make payment.

If purposely spend to just get RM7 drink, not worth it.

Yes, my first Quantum Visa card was exactly like this. Only happened with PBB terminal and only happened when I used Samsung Pay. If use card to paywave, no problem. Then, I contacted customer service and they replaced a new card for me. The second card was exactly the same issue too. Problem wasn't solved. So I just thought maybe I just left it that way and just use physical card to paywave when I see PBB terminal. Then later I found out that I couldn't even paywave using physical card as there was no response at all. In the end, got to call up customer service again to get another replacement. So my third card now works. Paywave no problem, Samsung Pay no problem with PBB terminal too. All problem solved with this new card.

So for you, you just have to keep asking for replacement until one that works.

No charge for the replacement. The only thing is that you can't use the card for a week until you get the new card replacement.

Just call customer service and tell them your problem and ask for a card replacement. They will send the new card to you.

Tried out Boost with Samsung Pay. Got Samsung rewards points, Boost coins and shake rewards. Only can't get Shopback cashback. So got to choose one, shopback cashback or Samsung rewards points.

Shopback gives 2% cashback and capped at RM8 per month. I would say if small amount, using spay may be better since reward points is based on the number of transactions and not the amount. But still, all these will be up to your preference too.

Boost on Samsung Pay is still Boost, only can be used at merchants that accept Boost.

My payment with Boost didn't get reward points too. But it is shown in transaction history.

I would like to know when too. I've got the email and submitted all the screenshots requested. That was on 29 July. No news since then.

Winner list announced. No, didn't win any big prizes. 😢 Probably only consolation prize or nothing. They will email separately to inform consolation prize winners.

Congrats! I got only 500 samsung rewards points 😅.

RM5 Lazada voucher.....when it's available.

Any cards that are linked to Samsung Pay will be recognised as contactless transactions. You will still get your points or cashback.

I've been using Samsung Pay for 3 years already. I hardly use physical card, except to reset contactless frequency limit. Now use physical card even lesser coz even before I reach my limit, I usually will reset it when I spend more than RM250, and pin will be requested, and that will reset it.

Samsung Pay is also one of the reasons that I'm sticking with Samsung phones. I love the convenience. And with Boost added to Samsung Pay, I use Samsung Pay even more now.
