[Gtx Gaming]

Use your Virtual Card on two or more streaming or online platform(s)*.

^ on ebucks site, i only use netflix - is there a list i can look at? ie: does showmax count? Any others?

Use YouTube premuim, like 20 bucks via VPN to Argentina

Guys, on streaming or online platform(s)* is Google Play and Google Storage(Google One) two separate platforms? Or they are both counted as Google Play?

Think they count as one, I would not risk dropping a level on this. Rather find another platform for points in case

Just a reminder, deezer is still R4 for 3 months

Did anyone receive the MrD and Takealot eBucks for June today that was allocated before? I just did.

It's so minimal, lol.
I don't even think it should qualify them as ebucks partners, but I guess it works for them because I know someone who personally prefers shopping at takealot (coz you earn ebucks bro).
Some people just don't care about looking at the details.

Hahahaha that also pisses me off. Those eBucks at Takealot(Actually all online partners) are such a waste of time. I just buy in Takealot because of the convenience. The delivery to their pickup points is quick. You can order something now and get it tomorrow at 10am.

Would also like to know.

Activated 9 June, topped up with about R50 split between airtime and data. Not a meg or a minute 'free' of any kind to date...

I logged a query with ebucks but the consultant was clueless and said she doesn't know anything about the allocation, I must contact FNB Connect... Called FNB Connect, and they're just giving me the run around quoting different T&Cs each time, including the minimum R50 spend, all of which I have met!!
What a waste of time, not worth chasing any further, and false advertising from FNB!

I ended up signing up for the Deezer premium. My Streaming or online services for this month are sorted.

No adds worth it for 20 bucks

Would you pay SABC 20 bucks a month? haha.

I suppose it is worth it.

Yes, instant on the app but you will have to wait till cards arrive.

No pitfalls, all cards will remain active until you receive new ones (both debit and credit)

You will be judged according to premier the moment you switch so make sure you are able to reach the level you want

If they take the ads away and play schit people actually want to watch, maybe. But they don't so not paying them a cent

Noob question - do you earn points from the 1st to the last day of a calendar month? Do you start again at zero each month? Do points reflect within a day or two so you can keep track?

Everything eBucks runs from first to last day of the month. Track your rewards on the app is meant to update regularly but isn't always all that accurate (and is out of action until Aug).

Yes.
And remember ebucks work on processed (cleared) date, not transaction date.
