QUOTE(cylee32 @ Jun 30 2019, 10:38 PM) Thanks for reply. The "rides" during that Reward Period, can it refer to the grab rewards point I earn through grab pay? I heard someone said if you achieve Platinum, they will request you to unlock 1 more tier to let you stay permanent Platinum, I wonder how true is it? I don't understand your question. No such thing as unlock 1 more tier to stay permanent Plat. I have been Plat user since very long time ago and every 6 months, I still have to go through the 3500 points benchmark.

QUOTE(cylee32 @ Jun 30 2019, 10:47 PM) I see. Oh, I mean if the 3,500 points I can earn through either rides or grab pay right? Yes, fastest way is by spending at merchants as that gives 20x points. These days it's easy retain Plat status unlike last time I had to take a lot of rides just to maintain Plat status.

QUOTE(se800i @ Jul 1 2019, 09:03 AM) is the durian nice taste? got bitter taste? Musang King is more to sweet. And today 25% Grab Food voucher appears for Plat users. I feel this is better than the one I spent yesterday. OK la, can use for food delivery with colleagues, I cannot spend minimum RM 40 alone.

QUOTE(cylee32 @ Jul 1 2019, 10:19 AM) Ya, exactly, you just need to spend RM 175 (x20 = 3,500 points) within 6 months, 1 month approximate RM 30 per month using grabpay  I think sooner or later, Grab will find this unsustainable and may reduce the rewards or make the minimum tier points higher.

QUOTE(msa9696 @ Jul 1 2019, 10:40 AM) I hope they revise and provide better benefit, else if everyone is a Plat, there's no way they can give exclusivity They used to arrange a monthly event/invite for Platinum, from super attractive Baskin Robbins redemption, slowly to lousy gym class, and now nothing for months already Yes, that's right, I hope there is revision to make it more exclusive. Before GrabPay came into picture, I was really struggling to maintain the Plat status with just rides. Actually most of my spending still comes from rides and not merchants spending.  Now even my friends who don't take Grab rides are all on Plat status. This post has been edited by fruitie: Jul 1 2019, 10:49 AM

QUOTE(msa9696 @ Jul 1 2019, 10:54 AM) And I thought they should reward Grab rides more, that's where their business started and where they grew their customer base. Moreover, it's their own business they should be able to award more, but seems that they have more margin from merchant or they want to aggressively capture market share in the e-wallet space first. They still have problem with limited merchants, else even they increase requirement by 10x, I think people still can achieve Unfortunately, only 12x for rides and that's for JustGrab which I use all the time while merchants get 20x. Grab Food only has 6x.  Rides and Food are the features I use the most.

QUOTE(id28 @ Jul 2 2019, 08:20 AM) Grab starting 1 oct 2019 reward earning is now 3x for grabpay purchases (gold & platinum). Sigh Grab purchases means spending at merchants? That's 20x to 3x for Plat? Wow. I didn't expect such drastic reduction.

QUOTE(coolguy99 @ Jul 2 2019, 10:39 AM) I didn't know they offer 20x reward points previously! Does that only apply for plat members? I am currently a Gold member, not sure how that affects me though. Their rewards is quite good. I redeemed a RM5 ringgit Tesco voucher for 1k points the other day. Gold is 15x for now. https://www.grab.com/my/grabrewards/

QUOTE(coolguy99 @ Jul 2 2019, 11:07 AM) From 15x to 2.2x? Meh. Now I know why I have so much GrabRewards points. Actually where did you see the 2.2x? I'm also trying to locate the 3x for Plat but can't see it... Not sure if I haven't fully woke up or what.

QUOTE(coolguy99 @ Jul 2 2019, 11:15 AM) In my Grab app inbox. They sent me a message detailing the revised benefit effective this coming October. Yeah, saw the email just now and re-read again, I finally saw this paragraph: "As a Platinum member, every RM1 spent on Grab ride and other Grab services will earn you 3 GrabRewards points. Plus, you will earn 3x more points when you GrabPay for in-store payment, online shopping, or reload mobile prepaid credits." Grab ride also RM 1 = 3x. Why la penalize riders?

I am actually more curious for rides rewards now, since it has few types of rides. Even now, also goes by categories and JustGrab is the highest at 12x.

QUOTE(chukahae @ Jul 2 2019, 02:15 PM) Can’t agree more. So the take home message is to rack up your points before October because to maintain platinum you still need to get 3500 points as of now. Bdw, is any of you facing an issue redeeming umobile rewards from grab reward catalogue? 3500 points and with 20x for merchants spending, it is as easy as ABC to maintain.

QUOTE(soonwai @ Jul 3 2019, 11:46 AM) If you're silver. Gold 6 points. Plat 9 points. I think. Not entirely sure yet. Yeah, after reading it should be 9 points and they penalized rides to 3 points only.  I hope I'm wrong.

What's the maximum amount I can transfer to a GrabPay user? Since MBB will cease its e-wallets benefits from 8th onward, I plan to reload and transfer some to my sister as she is in-charge to book for my dad's rides to hospital.

Don't try to create so many Grab dupe accounts. I have been banned by Grab for a month last year and despite already whitelisted me from their system but that time every app update will blacklist me again. After ding dong for so long, complaints and follow-ups, everything is OK. I proved those no. are mine but Grab still insisted one person one account.  My only mistake was I used the same phone to login. *Hint for you all* When they banned me that time, I was already a Plat user with recorded rides every day. Anyway,that doesn't seem to be a matter for them. I play safe and behave, nowadays I only have one account. This applies to all my online and e-wallets accounts.

QUOTE(skty @ Jul 5 2019, 07:30 PM) you can use other name  Doesn't matter, same phone sure died. Recently someone I know just few days ago got his account banned too and Grab sent him a list of his phone no.  Anyway, with KYC these days I just stick to one account. Sufficient for me. I'm only an ikan bilis.
