Without going to much off topic, how do I get fnb pay to work? I don't have any option in the app.

As soon as you open the app, before logging in, there's a Payments icon. If you tap that, you're asked to log in. Then there should be an FNB Pay icon - it's the third icon in the list of payment options for me.

If you go to My Profile Settings, is there an option for FNB Pay? You might need to scroll down. That's where you can add/remove cards and manage the security mode.

Thanx got it now.

I had to reinstall the app with NFC switched on while installing it. If you install with nfc switched off at the time, then it seems to not have the option.

Don't know if this was asked/answered in the thread. I want to make four Ethekweni water and lights payment via the FNB app.

A public recipient called "Ethekweni water and lights" is listed. Has anybody here ever used this successfully? If so, did you merely use your account number in the recipient's reference? Ta.

/reason I ask, Ethekweni website make no mention regarding an FNB EFT - they do, however, provide steps for NEdbank EFT. Odd.

If there is an easypay number do this at checkers or online via easypay.co.za you will earn more ebucks back

Does a recurring scheduled payment count?

I have a standard bank account that I'm not using and have a scheduled recurring payment running of R50 per month. Would this count as one of the 4 payments? If it does, then I can create 4 recurring payments to avoid having to forget about doing the payments and possibly dropping a level.

Off-topic but indulge me. :)

I have 60k eB and need a washingmachine. Tips to best buy it? I see Makro has LG/Samsung/Defy/Whirlpool/Bosch in my pricebracket. I guess they all much of a muchness these days?

Would have loved a Speed Queen but to pricey.

LG .. or Bosch .. which ever one uses less water and electricity :)

I was gonna use my 120k ebucks to buy an identical fridge to what I currently have. Saw makro had it for 7500 + (350 delivery) and loot had it for 7k with free delivery . So much wanted to pay with scode and a checkers gift card (from previous ebcuks trick but know it doesn't work anymore) ...

Then walked into a demo store and picked up a demo fridge for 5.4 with delivery. It's got one dent on it, but with the dent will match the other one it's joining.

My ebucks will now be kept for an LG 65 or 75 inch OLED TV :)

Got an LG 13KG turbo drum thing works like a charm 6 years in runs like the day we bought it. Even threw an entire carpet in there after the doggies did their business on it :)

I got the LG 8kg wash 6kg dry washer dryer combo at house and home. Was on special for R7300.
Went for the washer dryer due to space limitations, small apartment and not much place to hang a cloths to dry. Combo is nice, load 5kg, press play, 4 hours later everything is clean and dry.

For a fridge, I also went to house and home, they price matched my a tafelberg furnishers hisense 350l (299 net, no water dispenser) fridge for R3500.

I buy from House and Home because you can pay with checkers gift cards where you effectively earn 15% back in eB. But now limits has come into play though.

Also you can buy checkers vouchers with your eBucks and spend at House and Home. They also have best price guarantee, so I they stock a product you can always check if other places have better prices to get the best possible deal.
