Has anyone had an error "The ROM on your device is not the stock Android ROM" when trying to enable Tap to Pay?
It's an LG G6, they can't even be rooted even if you wanted to so it can only be stock Android.

On a different tack:

To qualify for the 40% Spotify discount: Must my wife be on a spousal linked account, or is it sufficient that all of my children (and wife) have a FNB account (including Youth account for those below age). The rule that I see just says "when your family banks with FNB", but what does that mean?

It's linked in the background, if she on the spousal option then it is linked.

Your banker can do the link

I want to know if it is a requirement that she must be on the spousal option. We get more value for money for her to be on the Encore option (above 55). So: with an FNB account, but NOT a spousal account, for her, will we still qualify for the 40% Spotify discount?

As far as I understand, it can be either of the below:
1. Linked spousal account (it must be linked)
2. Linked FNBy account

In my case, I satisfy condition 2 only and I qualify for the 40% rebate in ebucks

So if she just has FNB account and it is not linked and there is no FNBy account linked, then you won't qualify for the 40% off.

Can confirm. - I only have FNBy account linked for my daughter and I get the spotify benefit.

I still have a linked FNBy account for my youngest so that should be fine. Further questions: 1) My other 3 children are all above 21 (or will be in Feb) so can I assume they are not part of the "family" requirement anymore? 2) Does this mean that once my youngest' FNBy account falls away, the only way for us to qualify for this is for my wife to go on a Spousal account?

Thanks for all the quick answers!

yes - my son's account fell off when he turned 18 (i think), so your only option after that (if you want the points) is for your wife to move to spousal account

have you got any root apps on your device? even if you haven't rooted? I had this issue with FNB and TymeBank where I had leftover apps from a previous root and ROM install. Once I deleted those, everything started working
