Seems like all the chatter in this thread is about scams...

I never realized how hard it is to prove your family and relatives are related to you.

That's until Bigpay asked me to explain my relationship to my father. I realized there really isn't any government or legal document for this beyond a birth certificate, and then I still can't explain my sister...

Bigpay really asks for too much...

Even sending money ??? Using the money transfer ???

But bigpay ask who and why I'm sending money to my relatives... It's a bit too much

Bigpay really quite fail as a money app... I still can't load anything

Anyone having trouble sending money internationally? My transfer just got refunded after a few hours but they kept the rm10 fee. No reason provided. Tried to ask customer support but the queue of 3 people is stuck there for an hour. It's like they only have 1 part time guy working on customer support.

All of AirAsia group's apps are epic fails.. their so called super app cannot maintain session state, cannot checkout for purchases, and is extremely buggy..

He set the example already. Take big loans then don't need pay back.

These days I use Wise and Instarem. The latter has a new user promotion where they give you rm200 during your first transfer of rm1000. The deal was so good for me that after I confirmed it was without strings attached I signed up everyone in my family and collected a few rm200... Heh. Let me know if anyone needs a referral.

It's a borderless world. We have buy sell trades across borders, we have friends, children, and relatives overseas, we have businesses or branches overseas, or we invest in overseas markets, or trade crypto ...

Comparing these two cards? Mostly Wise wins.

Yes. With fees as per Bigpay's published details.

Yes

Depends where and how much. Wise let's you store local currency in advance.

Or maybe Wise card...

Sharing - Bigpay has a daily limit for top-ups from any source, at RM10k, and this limit is imposed regardless of whether your topup transaction is successful or not. I tried topping up RM5k twice, and the bank's fraud unit blocked the card, but after I called and unblocked the card, I found that I still couldn't top up my Bigpay, because I've hit the daily limit.

CS advised to wait 24 hours and try again, as the limit would reset by then.

Also, do you guys notice that whenever we complete a topup the app would briefly flash what looks like a text console screen at a tiny font size 1, before showing your top up confirmation screen?

You will be charged 1% for amounts topped up exceeding rm1k, e.g. You top up total rm1,100 .. you'll get charged 1% on rm100.

Yeah, cash top up fee only apply to real physical cash topup at 7/11. FPX bank transfer and debit all free.

Yes correct. Sometimes when there is lag, I can clearly read the top of the screen (there are several variations), which says "WEBSITE NOT AVAILABLE"... 😅

Yes, DuitNow is instantaneous. Hope you get it back.

Only credit card top-ups above RMk within a month incurs a 1% fee.
