anyone facing cashback like caring gone missing? the cashback was supposingly expire tomorrow or did i read the t&c wrongly?

Same here. Have emailed to them.
Boost is really unethical to forfeit it before it expires.
We are allowed to utilise it by 31/07/2020 before forfeiture.

When you try to send money via DuitNow QR , it will show something called online banking balance : RM XXX.XX
That's right, only Online Banking balance is allowed to be transferred or use to pay finance service like ASNB / SSPN.
*
Sending money via Duitnow QR must be own account or other people account?

have you heard of it being discussed extensively here?

afaik, cc fund has some restricted usage but boost doesn't implement it as extensive as tng ewallet.

Could you please enlighten us what are some of the restricted usage beside transferring the money and duitnow...?

Anyone tried to top up boost with debit card without charging 1% extra?
Thought 1% is only applicable for credit card top up after first 1k allowance.

1% is only for credit card. Any screenshots to share the 1% extra for debit card?

I tried to top up with tng visa card that is prepaid card for RM100 and the total amount shown is RM101.
Did you manage to top up from debit card without 1% extra charge?

dont mix the card type. debit card is debit card. prepaid card is prepaid card and NOT a debit card. there is a distinction from the card scheme (visa/mastercard/amex/etc)
tng visa is a prepaid card. some merchants/payment gateways may not able to recognize this card type and treat it as cc instead (as what mentioned above)

maybe you try using bank's debit cards or newer* gxbank/aeon bank debit card > boost wallet, see if it charge 1% convenience fee?

* p/s: also may have issue with newer cards in the market as existing systems doesnt recognize it as well. worth to try.
nothing much you could do except filing dispute to Boost to waive the 1% convenience fee. let them escalate to their payment gateway (revpay) to update their list.
*
No issue for other merchant like bigpay to recognise it.

errr you do know bigpay is not boost right?

no point comparing them together. each runs their app diffferently, engages with dfifferent vendors, different policies, setup, etc.

just because bigpay can identify tng visa prepaid card without charging 1% fee doesnt mean boost behave the same.

if boost is the issue, then boost gotta solve it. maybe they dont know this issue exists or for them to pay attention. maybe they dont care as tngewallet is competitor, why would boost want to solve it? biggrin.gif maybe they dont have resources to fix it now.
*
Boost is just too lazy to fix it.
It is not rocket science to know it is prepaid, debit or credit cards.

Only transferable can use.

At least can use and also no 1% surcharge.
