Yes I've a friend who can spend a lot because helping customers.So many wishes and expectations on this upgrade, I thought they just like improving the server/stability/performance? Later all disappointed haha |

QUOTE(ClarenceT @ Jun 11 2019, 11:08 AM) What if the improved system can handle: Actually doesn't really matter to me, I mean now Boost clearly has many advantages so I use it most of the time.(1) Maximum usage RM50k per calendar year. (TnG/WeChatPay) (2) Money deposited into the App via credit card cannot be withdrawn, ie "Available" cash-out balance. (VCash) (3) Shake/Mission Reward will not be added to account balance but the rewards can be used on next transactions/payments (Lazada/SarawakPay) When they revise some benefits, then for sure I'll use them as and when specific features still more superior but will use others where Boost no longer has advantage |

QUOTE(beebee1314 @ Jun 11 2019, 12:10 PM) Many can hit 50k, if u get what I mean. So withdrawal is not an issue. The convenience is true, that's why they luring ppl to use it with all the perks, as in any new companies recruitment comes first, but not sure how long will the "recruitment drive" ends, once they're satisfied with sufficient base, reward surely will be lesser.I will still use. Know why? When u can pay 10 different vendor bills on a single platform, why not? Hello takkan u wan download 6-10 different apps, when u can actually record the info and pay them in a single platform. Already using it for Celcom, Ptptn (just started), streamyx and pba. Super convenient. Add in iwk, tnb, time and it's perfect. If can also pay penang Council assessments as well, win already. Nowadays, the places in our pasar malam in penang also got boost. The convenience of bill payments and food payments all in one app. So I don't really mind if it stay 1.5k wallet limit. I need convenience. Huge wallet size only cater to a minor tiny population. The majority of us, including youngsters, use boost for food trucks and small rewards. Ahh I love food trucks. Now even pak petrol at shell also can use boost. Its widespread. So most of us don't need 10k as it will place us under Bank Negara eyes. We only need some rewards and convenience. Me too don't mind to use it even rewards are less, but if there are alternatives out there with better rewards, I will still go for it. |

QUOTE(space_boy_88 @ Jun 11 2019, 02:52 PM) the app upgrades are taking a while longer than planned. It will be extended till 8pm, 11 June 2019. Please bear with us as our developers are currently attending to several bug fixes. For those who were planning to participate in our Super Shake contest, don’t worry. We understand the inconvenience caused and therefore, as a token of appreciation, we would like to give you complimentary Super Shake tokens that will be distributed within three working days which will be announced once the app is available. Follow us on our social media pages (FB or IG) @myboostapp to get the latest updates. Thank you for your patience and understanding. Doesn't see any benefit of getting free Super Shake, still the prizes remain the same, so instead of say 10k people participating, now 30k, we're just competing with more entries by having more chances, end result still sameReplied from boost in their fb |

QUOTE(car_computer @ Jun 11 2019, 03:12 PM) exactly ! It's such stupid move by their marketing team trying to see if most Boost users are stupid enough to feel so blessed that they have free tokens.what’s the point of giving free tokens to everyone ? chance of winning will become even thinner ! In fact this will only benefit non-active users, because instead of not having any tokens (hence cannot join at all), now they can at least stand a chance to win something. But for those already with sufficient tokens to participate, giving me additional tokens do not increase my chance of winning at all as the number of prizes alloted still the same |

QUOTE(mr_tuzki @ Jun 11 2019, 03:23 PM) Agreed. I don't know why GrabPay is quite under the radar, and not much discussion on it. The 20x points is really good. Like you said, 17% cashback on everything. It depends on what you redeem, can be as high as 30+%QUOTE(lambcxhop99 @ Jun 11 2019, 03:25 PM) Grab pay much lesser merchant and grocry store like 99mart, kk mart not accepting. moreover, not everyone want the reward grab giving. Very true, unless the redemption item is really relevant, cash is still the best. If they can maintain like 20% value, still ok, if they drop further, eventually Grab points will be not attractive (they have devalued the redemption points few times already)QUOTE(confusedway @ Jun 11 2019, 03:31 PM) Many have that much including myself, agree with most here, don't worry too much or speculate, just wait for it to resume. |

QUOTE(fruitie @ Jun 11 2019, 05:15 PM) I have long lunch hours (flexi hours), can eat up to three hours if I want to. I still prefer MV food, so many varieties. Actually the expenses are not an issue for me la, I'm single and with my income is enough and only needs to feed myself. Wah 3 hours lunch (and expensive lunch) later I send my resume to youI can pay with various wallets - Boost, GrabPay and TnG Wallet. TnG chooses The Gardens as their pioneer anyway. Spending with e-wallets in MV is never an issue for me. I must admit, among all, I use Boost the least. No BK and PH in MV. Those that you listed above are not my preferred choices. Actually also depend on colleagues' mood. I will prefer e-wallets and CC, rather than Digi vouchers unless it has interesting vouchers for me to buy. Like Tealive. |

QUOTE(sms2u @ Jun 17 2019, 02:27 PM) say good bye, u sure u really will stop using boost? boost still give shake even it is little like RM0.25. Of course Boost vs cash, I'll still use Boost even have zero rewards because of the convenience.if boost really can make every where also can use, then better use boost instead of cash. no all place accept cc, at least some shop / hawker place accept boost now and they no accept cc But if vs credit card, hard to say, I don't see anymore benefit from Boost if compared to Amex particularly. Moreover, nowadays all mission mostly useless, mostly full. Used to have like scan & pay RM 120 get RM 8 if not mistaken, now RM 230 get RM 6 and even then, it's always full. But one thing for sure, Boost usage definitely will get a some impact from this. |

QUOTE(metronidazole @ Jun 17 2019, 08:51 PM) Hi, wanna ask... is Grab-credit considered as e-wallet too? Can i use Amex to topup GrabCredit and still entitled for CB/points???? QUOTE(rojakwhacker @ Jun 17 2019, 09:03 PM) Yes Grab is ewallet. Cease of rewards/cashback for ewallet effective 8th july onwards. So still earn for now till that date. Just go and top up 10k into Grab haha....jokes aside, really "applaud" such move by banks, it's really a big blow to all e-wallets.The impact just too huge, even affect T&G, in fact, now I would rather fall back to normal T&G card where I still can top up with Amex, rather than using RFID/paydirect which deducts from T&G wallet with zero CC points |

QUOTE(siawyent @ Jun 19 2019, 10:47 PM) yes, can even receive otp from bank, but cannot receive from boost. So it's Boost or XOX's problem? Yours still not solved? It's Boost, definitely nothing to do with XOX since you can receive sms from others. Mine still the same, guess no point trying, tomorrow only try again |

Just wondering anyone received RM 20 twice for super shake. A bit skeptical on the randomness, all my family account received once, can't be so ngam right.
Was thinking is it they simply give to every account once for this consolation prize |

Somehow feel that finally can rest a while after 7th, take a break, and then only start thinking what's next.
Btw, after 7th, I seriously don't see much relevance in Boost anymore. The shake reward is too low to compensate for card earning. Just spent RM 18 just now, got 20c shake, that's 1.1%. Guess it's goodbye Boost, unless they have better missions or promo. |
