What was the reason? I've been paying with Boost at Tesco for quite a while now & the cashier / self-service staff have been very cooperative when it comes to eWallets.

Tesco is like hit or miss for e wallet payments since the day they started accepting e wallets...

It's probably because they're using that problematic terminal pod, sometimes it works and sometimes it doesn't, if the latter happens then the cashier would have to restart the whole card terminal and wait for it to boot up again...

Some branches have this issue, some don't...

Also depends on which cashier you meet, some would insist on letting you to pay with e wallet even though they need to reboot the terminal again...

Weirdly, it's the same terminal pod that Isetan and TGV (counter where you scan your QR ticket) use but I don't see them having issues with it, it's only Tesco though.

Yesterday I try to pay at Tesco too. The cashier said boost is down, but I can pay with any other e wallet. Ended up I pay with TNG e wallet.

I always do haha, got used to it...

E wallets in our country still far from being matured yet, so some hiccups are expected, but definitely better than how they were when they first launched couple of years ago...

I always have Bigpay as backup if e wallets aren't working, so no worries on my side.

the urge to learn with the humility and hope to find a guru that knows how to teach.

i use lazada wallet, only because i purchase regularly and they already have my details and also they give 5% rebate for any amount of top up, why not?

i use maybank online to pay all TNB bills, i say the convenience is already good enough that i would not find alternative to make it faster by an extra 3 seconds.

now, Boosters, your turn.

Why bother to answer? Its up to him, we are not representing boost. Why need to Po his LanPa to convince him from using boost that gain him all the benefits that we are getting?       

for 1 and 2, they are doing exactly what online banking does minus BNM standard.

for 3, cashback <2% is not attractive as lazada 5%. looks like the only one thing to go for is the once in a while promo that you mentioned following
but isn't it too good to be true? 100% cb means they pay you bill total amount for free?

how could that be possible or even viable as business point of view?

Not sustainable. Not our business, use it and get benefits when got, otherwise don't use.

And please learn to multi-quote, you're spamming non-stop.

Read all the postings at 8/5, 8/6 and 8/7.
Some people were buying petrol vouchers or mobile top-up at 11street on 8/5.
Someone was buying 30 pairs of socks on 8/7 at Mr DIY. 

What?
Why?
How?
When?
Who?

Dude asked more questions than my grandma...

I just thinking he/she is either
1, from competitors and come here to learn what is down side of Boost, OR
2, student who is going to finish his/her master for thesis



Looks like asking questionnaire..

3. a curious passer by in crowded pasar malam wondering why so many people aftering a 1% rebate.

4. curiously lead him to discover a promising 30% rebate led by greed.

5. giving up after reading tonnes of terms and conditions that stopped #4 from happening.

there you have it.

is this consider fortune?

that someone does not understand risk (12% CC interest rate) versus reward (1% cb)

Wow 10 registered under 10 different names and ic?

seriously. 100+ posts just because of a f**king id**t here?
and you guys are feeding it. 

You not yet count my lovely BP cards.

If u Q behind me, u need to be patient

Same to me, but after i cashed out rm1498, I'll top up money again

guys, any one had issue verifying boost account? I have been trying to verify for about two weeks now, but still no luck.
at the same time I have also reaching out to Boost support, but the support rather slow to no responses, so frustrated. I got money in the wallet I wanted to cash out, money stuck for almost two weeks.

any thoughts? thanks

No mission to join so boring

Anyone received 10x tokens from boost day last week ?

"unlike others" - i have a feeling they are talking about Maybank!! hahaha

An update on paying with Boost in Guardian just now...

I'll make this quick and simple for those who are interested...

> Me wanna buy Cap Kapak minyak angin
> Proceeds to counter
> Me: "Nak pakai Boost ya"
> Cashier : "Boost? Ok"
> Cashier scanned one time, cannot
> Cashier scanned second time, cannot
> Wallet deducted
> System not responding, showing error
> Cashier calls colleague
> Colleague also clueless, asked for transaction ID, "u cuba tekan transaction"
> I clueless, "mana boleh? Ni memang selalu cam ni punya"
> Another staff comes, also clueless
> After a while of blur face, staff: "eh bukan tekan ni je ke?"
> Receipt printed out

Only 1 counter opened, whole process took 5 minutes, queue getting longer, cashier then opens another counter, then everything settled, I'm the king.

The End.

It's fine, it happens when a merchant just accepted e wallet at a recent time.

How are they gonna solve the charges that will be imposed on the smaller merchants by the bank for accepting card payments?

It's easy for these smaller merchants to accept e wallets since the MDR will be either none or just like a little, but as for cards, it's gonna be more than that right?

But it's a good initiative, I enjoyed the experience when I was in R&R at Ayer Keroh.

need advise on withdrawal issue, it has been 2 weeks since request were made but still not yet receive the fund in my bank account. boost cs is useless... anyone know how to complain to bnm?

such an high % of shake

I cant recall the exact process but it didnt even ask to snap IC photo. And the upgrade is instant. Here are some screenshots of one of my supp Boost accounts:


If I click transfer out to bank:

It will ask to verify IC before can transfer

So yeah it can be done.

If I remember correctly, to upgrade to premium wallet, u need to key in NRIC no. and name as per IC, but I wonder whether they check whether it is valid IC no since u don’t need to upload IC copy..

Also, the transfer limit is capped at RM500 per month if u didn’t verified with IC copy + selfie

Seems like they want to make a one-stop app for everything...
Would be good if the GPS isn't always turned on when using the app. Serve no purpose since it doesn't do navigation.

Just received an SMS mention I win something from Boost, is it legit?

From info at the super shake page we are told to submit the shipping address to participate. How can this be done?

It happen only once.. or each time you put new token..?
Coz mine doesn't..

And I don't remember if I've put one before
