Same. To be fair, they should have announced it the moment it is fully redeemed. Then again, it is nice of Boost to announce it.

I think it's poor marketing strategy to offer deals and have them finished or out of stock or fully redeemed much earlier than the campaign date... it shows their marketing team have no clue.. and the negative blowback and perception ruins the investment..

I got a SMS from 68886 that I won Boost prize of RM8,888. The link as usual is non-official so I just ignored the SMS.

Not satisfied with that, now this guy (017 893 2153) is calling me via WhatsApp, asking me if I received the SMS. doh.gif

I just ignored him & terminated the call. Just figured that I should give you a guys a heads up about it.

Maybe u really won? Haha

Guess just pick the best card and stick with it gua. Maybe Boost got incur cost with different credit cards allowed or the banks all complain because Boost allow too many card to add money to wallet & didn't restrict the cash feature. Anyways I'm still using it because the coins reward really better than other wallets. GrabRewards is so shitty now & TnG kedekut sia.

Boost only allow max 2 saved cards so choose wisely.. haha

The RM 200 cashout is sooo leceh, have to wait till the last cashout notification is "successful" only can proceed with the next cashout even though I already long time received the money in my bank account.
I added 2 bank account thinking can cashout simultaneously but still not working out 😭 anyone have solution on this pls?

Why not spend it? Boost topups are not meant to be used to move money around...

Interestingly, Boost is also tightening its stance on users who own multiple Boost accounts. In its early days, Boost allowed for multiple Premium accounts to be verified with a single IC number (as long as they are using different phone numbers). This has since been suspended, but with the coming update it looks like Boost is looking to purge these multiple accounts. In the latest app update description, one of the two highlighted updates reads “Premium users will only be able to have one premium account if you’ve multiple accounts currently”.

No more transfer out to bank... Not even rm200... That is going to suck.

Comparing Boost to Grab Rewards:

Boost RM10 = 1680 points, and at Level 4 you spend RM840 to get that many points, so cash back rate is 1.2%.

Grab RM10 = 1600 points, and with GrabPay you get 3X points and spend RM533 to get that many points, so cash back is 1.9%.

I would spend on Grab all the time. Plus they accept Amex.
