One more question.

When they allocate the eBucks points, the one section is about the spend on your card
"Is at least 50% of your total monthly spend on your FNB Private Wealth/RMB Private Bank Credit Card?"

This has 50-74.9, then 75 to 99.9 and finally 100.

How do you get to 100? I have debit orders that go off my cheque account and I also do a handful of EFTs. Do debit orders count for this, or is it just the EFT? Should I just do the EFT from my credit card then?

Total spend is whatever goes off your credit and cheque card. Debit orders and EFTs don't matter.

So only use your credit card.

Exception is cash@till, use your cheque card.

Well I just use my credit card for swiping and online, my cheque account just has the debit orders and about 3 EFT that I manually do every month. I also don't draw cash either, and petrol gets paid on my credit card.

I suspect it is the 3 x EFT from the cheque account to other banks.

Same here. Nice and hopefully a sign that they've fixed the automation.

Still waiting for the calculator to be updated though.

On Gold, only Chekers allocation is in, and it's only showing on my transaction history and eB total.
But ... Yes ... that's alot earlier than the past 2 months.

Ebucks are in as well.

Earned quite a lot (for me anyway) this last month.

And now I'm 500 points shy of RL5 :D

Remind me again what the best way is to draw money at the ATM if you need to to keep the spend 100% on your FNB credit card - just draw out of the card?
Click to expand...

With FNB app use eWallet to send money to your cell number and then withdraw with that pin.
Never use card to draw money at ATM
Use Cheque card to draw cash@till

Oh nice.

Think if I do this - or Cash@Till this month I will most likely be on RL5.

Which would be awesome.

The way I interpret the below is that you need to do at least one Cash@Till in a month to get the full 1500 points on Platinum.

"Have more card swipes and/or Cash@Till™ withdrawals than ATM/branch withdrawals"
