changing from ABSA to FNB

FNB only makes sense when you're earning eBucks
Otherwise it isnt worth it

The Smart Devices used to be a bargain back in the day, not anymore

Yeah earning eBucks is becoming more and more difficult.
A year ago I was on Level 5
I am now level 2 and some months level 3
Don't get anything back either for fuel like I use to coz now I must have a vehicle financed as well through them.
I earn most of my eBucks back from Takealot and not the bank anymore

Premier for R220 is bloody cheap, 3 years ago when I was on it it was around 500 bux

You do not need your vehicle to be financed through them to get ebucks for fuel , that is only if you want double points.

Did you add your vehicle?

  • Earn up to R4/litre back in eBucks for your fuel spend at Engen only, based on the price of Inland ULP 95. No earn will be awarded on fuel purchases at any other fuel retailers. You need to load your vehicle’s* details on the FNB App > nav-igate life > Car > Add Vehicle and have accepted the nav»Car terms of use, in order to earn eBucks for your Engen fuel spend.

apparently if you VISIT the page, you earn ebucks,
somehow it "knows" when you visited the site, and give you a tiny amount of ebucks back.

all I have to say been on FNB for years,
ebucks are a nice to have, but YOU pay for them,
just like FF points at SAA or wherever.

no free lunch in this world, they "try' to incentivize you, but Ebucks cost money,
and with your spending you subsidize this.
 
I see I also dont get anything back from Checkers either
FNB really is out to naai me with eBucks

ive been with ABSA for 15 years now and ive just had enough of them and I was thinking of moving to FNB.
I only stayed with them because of the last company I worked for and it was quicker to get my salary but now I work for myself and I need a change.

and setting up PayPal would be easy

any advice?

eBucks: take time, read the rules and follow the thread somewhere here.

Usage: balance and available balance are 2 different things. Always follow available balance.
If you're not sure how much you have, check before you swipe. Insufficient funds is expensive.
Avoid cash but if you must do it at checkers or pick and pay.
Message FNB on the app. Don't go to branch they might charge you just for going there.
 
I really don't get ebucks, in my opinion it's all smoke and mirrors, when the old explorers came to new lands, they gave the locals Shiney cheap beads and other fancy things, so they gained " a welcome" all while plundering the resources in the background. nothing is free, especially from a bank, someone somewhere is paying for it.

But that's just me, quit FNB, standard bank, and quite happy with Capitec, used it all over the world with no issues.
 
I applied for a aspire account online and got denied for some reason and then get accepted for a premier account?
