The African Bank credit card thread

[notinterested]

Guys can someone please explain what this card has to do with ebucks? I don't see anything about it on their website, but some of you seem to have it for the ebucks.

Anyone been able to get spot / slide working with this card?

 

[Awesum]

I tried a few times and it doesn't work, however I did receive the R20 Spot signup fee.

Thanks. Receiving seems to work, paying doesn't.

Nope it doesn't work...

If it did it would mean not having to go in store to transfer out of ab ... But daily limits would be annoying

I received an SMS from AB that they've upgraded their cellphone banking, so I checked what's different.

They've added functionality that allows you transfer money between your AB accounts. I tried to transfer from my CC to notice account and it went through all the steps, but failed in the end ️

Would be awesome if this works. Tried logging in, managed to block my access. This new password requirement is really messing with my mojo

Somehow I don't get this -- what so great about an African Bank credit card? The R68 monthly charge?

I'll stick with Virgin Money -- it's free.

The functionality is only available on their cellphone banking, not their online banking.

Ah. How does one access the cellphone banking?

EDIT: found it. I tried the transfer but get an error in application when choosing credit card as the from account.

IT WORKS!! There seems to be some sort of limit though. My first attempt, for R5000, failed but I've been able to successfully transfer R500 and R1000.

Awesome. Let me try again.

I managed to transfer R2k, but it deducted the funds from the credit amount and not from my positive balance.

How do you see that?

 

[Awesum]

How do you see that?

Check your balance or statement. My positive balance is still there and my credit limit is less R2k.
I was charged 0.92 for the transaction.

I'm blocked on internet banking, and cell phone banking only shows a single balance. 92c is super reasonable.

P.s. I was able to make a transfer of R5k work.

 

[Awesum]

I did a total of R3k so I'll deposit that amount back in today and see what happens.

It's got nothing to do with the cost... Go to page 1 read to page 5 and you will understand

Thanks. Basically just another form of buy-aid (like Pretorium Trust, Koopkrag, BSmart etc.) that, once you start, removes your rights to consumerism.

 

[infscrtyrisk]

Totally missed the plot. This has nothing to do with any form of buy aid. In short if you are not with FNB this has no benefit to you whatsoever

OK

OK

Hehe
