hello frens,

Need some opinions from you guys

I wanted to register my mobile for BOOST last week, it said my mobile number already registered!

Surprised, i put forgot password,reset it then ok ,i could register

Have been just starting to load the Wallet and then suddenly i realised transaction
history showed records before i started end of May 2019

See attached screenshots, somebody by the name Sxxxxx has been using my number for BOOST before? in Sept 2017?
the oldest record is at bottom right?
can see below July is Sept.. but all small amount transactions only

WHile waiting for CS reply, would appreciate comments, is my Boost wallet safe or not like that...


Looking at the transactions history, i saw there were 9 records before my usage

It seems your number has been recycled.
Did you own your number before Sept 2017?
*
Cant be
I have been using that same celcom Xpax number since more than 10 yrs ago

Just wonder how did it happen...that 3rd person could register using my mobile number
whether he would be able to do so again and withdraw my Boost wallet..

That's scary.
As far from what I see, even early day, Boost require SMS in order to create account.
Did you checked in Profile, see what's the email maintained?
*
Yes, i am just curious to know how it could happen.

Checked profile? can see my own email there. Anyway to see ol previous email from prev user??


QUOTE(annoymous1234 @ May 28 2019, 11:23 PM)
Ur xpax is it the student pack or something like that? The one that has super long validity without having to reload
*
yes you are right.
Can last till 2023, actually registered under my kid's name.
Would BOOSt go and dig out it is not my own name and cant do transfer out to my bank account later on?

If account was registered by others before, it should show that user's email unless changed by you.

Also, if that wallet is not Premium account, you still can submit your IC info and make it yours. Then in this way you can do transport out to Bank Account.
*
when i reset PW, i did not realise got old email there. I just keyed in my info like new registrant, dont remember seeing any old email there

That old account if it was a premium BOOST Wallet, that means new user cant register IC with it? I just put my IC in , approval is pending,
hopefully BOOST allow me the real owner to use....


I am new BOOST user, want to paybills in mission, noted forever that 3 paybill missions FULL
Any one knows when BOOST will refresh and put new pay bills miisions?

My boost account Premium Wallet spent Rm400 and Trf bank RM1498 , have not been able to topup wallet with creditcards past 2 days

Complained to CS advised to reboot phone, try again.
Tried reboot also uninstall and reinstall BOOSt, still cant reload again with credit cards

Existing card cannot, add new card also failed.

Anyone have similar problem? how to solve that?

Max transaction RM4500, so my usage RM1898 should not be the cause right?

did you top up n withdraw the money immediately ?
*
No,but i transferred out 3 days later,because no suitable missions.
money received after 2 days in MBB

QUOTE(imap.cc @ May 31 2019, 10:06 AM)
I guess it is because of missions
*
Yes missions keep comin reload 100 get coins.
Mybrother account reloaded 10 xRM100 also not blocked, is like we dont know how Boost can allow some
to reload many times


QUOTE(jkngo2003 @ May 31 2019, 10:15 AM)
last month i face this problem also and complaint to cs. no solution too.

after 10 days , all ok.

in my opinion, the boost system have a limit for reload wallet using credit card. dont know they set like how many times per day?

how much amount per 10 days and so on. after trigger their system alarm. all card cannot add. even u luckily added and also cannot reload wallet.

have to wait more than one week until every thing  cool down.

cs even dont what the system set for all credit card reload limit.
*
problem is we dont know their limit, they entice us with missions sure we keep doing, paid PTPTN x10


QUOTE(avinlim @ May 31 2019, 10:32 AM)
Obviously this is the cause that prevent you from further reloading.

My advise:
1. Stop add/delete cards. Only use max 2 cc on 1 boost account and stick to the 2 cards.
2. Never reload more that 2 times in a day.
3. When you got these reload error, stop "keep trying" method. wait for days or weeks before try again.
*
will take note of it now.


QUOTE(ktyong123 @ May 31 2019, 10:54 AM)

sometimes i use 'keep trying' method, can reload successfully, try 10 times, can success 2~3 times, sometimes the card is total unusable in one accounts while no reload problem in another account.  u will never know how deep and how long the system has suspended your card.  sometime feel tired in reloading this boost by cc(amex). sometimes u will still able to reload rm299, sometime rm99, sometime even rm10 also wont let u go.
*
so keep trying wont make it worse? so far my repeated trying all no success

hello frens WTA,

Premium wallet supposed can store RM1500 and max usage RM4500/month

After i paid bills totalled RM1200, wallet balance low,
so i loaded RM500 x2 balance was RM1050,

3rd reload i put RM400----> failed ------> received message ..." limit reached for premium Wallet..."

I tried reduced amount reload from 400 to 300 to 200 to 100 also it says limit reached.! surprised premium wallet RM1050 unable to topup further, not credit card or OTP prolem,it says limit reached.

I heard from my brother, total RM4500 per month usage also can be exceeded,
his fren had used Boost till RM4900 per month!

anybody got similar experience?
1)premium wallet unable to topup to full RM1500
2)Total usage can exceed RM4500 per month?

i never meet such issue where you cant topup until near 1,500. don't know about others
*
technical glitch for me may be...

QUOTE(monodevil @ Jun 6 2019, 08:39 AM)
maybe due to reload higher amount multiple times in a day / short period?
*
yes i think is using multiple cards, reload too many times

QUOTE(MGM @ Jun 6 2019, 09:14 AM)
I have been trying to reload BOOST with BP the last couple of days but always get this error msg. Anyway to overcome this apart from the advice given?

hi can we use static Boost QR code (eg Screenshot picture from Gallery) to make payment ?

Meaning we are offline and want to pay with Boost-
can we just show the QR code on our phone Gallery (offline) and the merchant scan it and payment can be done?

cannot....... as for security measurement. if such thing can be done mean anyone with the screenshot of your QR code could do transaction anytime which charge to your account

QUOTE(kelvinlzy @ Jun 9 2019, 12:08 PM)
Nope you can't, the qr code will be randomly generated each time for 1 min, for security purposes.
*
QUOTE(xperiaDROID @ Jun 9 2019, 12:12 PM)
If it can be done, then anyone could use your code and abuse it for payments.

Tbh, I think there should be a standard where merchants provide free wifi in order for customers to make payments using e wallets when the mobile data isn't reliable at that time, but still a long way to go I guess.

thanks for the reply

Anyone facing issue while adding new cc?
Boost app keep showing error to add credit card, headache.

Currently i only have one card in boost wallet, want to add another card, all info confirmed correct... doh.gif
*
i have similar problem, 1 day can topup next day cannot, it happens on and off.

email Support team standard reply, totally useless , took so many days before they solve it then can reload already


just wonder why Boost regularly block creditcard topups............despite not sharing credit card with other Boost account.


can Jonathan help find out? i doubt the excuse of weak internet connection as a reason..

Just want to survey, do any of you do the transfer out via Boost to avoid credit card interest?

For example:

> Ayam spend 4k using my C/C
> If ayam didnt pay, ayam will be charged 1.25% of that amount (1.25% / RM4000 = RM50 interest ) (Cincai kira la this one)
But, if ayam use boost,
> RM2 charge per RM1498
> Ayam topup using that C/C and pay 1498x3 to this CC
> 3 x Withdraw = 3 x RM2 = RM6

RM6 charge vs RM50 interest
So basically what i'm saying is, ayam only pay RM6 each month until death no need to pay for that 4k.

Do any of you do this?

Want to ask,

i have 2 Boost accounts from 2 mobile numbers, both also Premium Wallet with same name and Ic keyed in.

First account had been verified.

If i go verify my 2nd Boost account by taking picture same IC and selfie, would that disturb or invalidate my first account that had been verified ealier?

Anyone having 2 Boost accounts on 1 name,both verified with same IC and selfie picture?

thanks.

Yes, I experienced that error (still unresolved) since last week.

I rarely use Boost and have RM200+ balance inside, but wanted to top up to RM1,500 to cash out (and then leave my account to die).... but I can't top up anything.

Boost reward is much better now.

paid PTPTN Rm200 can get RM32.00
