Yes. I had the same problem.
Arent you forgetting the ww reward loyalty voucher programme ww has on the spending on the card, like 1% back for feul swipes, and like 0.75% or mor on non ww purchases, basically instead of earning 0.5% back on ebucks after maxing caps n qualifying cap limits it will be better to do xtra spend on wwcc than on fnbcc.
Not sure I follow? How is swiping for 20k at WW quicker than swiping for 20k at AB branch?
These percentages are not much higher than the 0.5% return so not really much of a benefit in my opinion

Ok, thought you meant queues at branch.
Although counter point would be that money in ABNA grows, even if just for 23 days per month.
I applied for wwcc yesterday, contract got finalised today. The card should be ready by Sat/Sun.
My reason for wwcc over abcc.
1. wwcc will replace my abna, i no longer have to wait 7 days.
2. No AB closer to my house or office, so going to a AB branch is a pain. WW on the other hand is a walk away from the office and 1km from my house.
3. With abcc i have to handle cash - withdraw and deposit
I will only use wwcc to increase in store spend.
Online spend i will stick to Slide - 5k per month (i dont need more than that)

Exactly the same reasons here...
Applied for mine on Sunday night. Card is ready for collection today. Great service.
How long do payments to WWCC take to reflect?
Paid into my WWCC account today, nothing reflecting on online banking yet.
Also is there an app or USSD code to quickly check WWCC balances etc? The website is not at all mobile friendly.
2/3 days

Maximum I got was R5k from one retailer (if you want to mass withdraw, you need to drive from retailer to retailer)
at pnp, i was able to draw max 4k at a time. after the 4k, trying even to draw R200 on the same day failed.
at checkers, cashier told me that their limit is 3k, so I drew 3k at one till, walked over to another till and draw another 1k.
both speedster and i were only able to draw max 4k per day.
thanks - then there's no use paying long list of easypay bills at checkers tills, might as well just make one big abcc easypay payment, and pay everything else using walletdoc which is the easiest
