Whose account does the debit order come off from? That will be the one that qualifies...

Both our accounts + there is a subsidy from the SO's employers. I was told last year I cannot make any more changes to the debit orders, because only one debit order is now allowed. Any shortfalls are now covered by EFT. We also do not want to lose the subsidy.

Will wait and see what happens when the new rules kick in. I'm definitely going to query this if I drop from level 5.
 
Any news on fee saver product requirements (Legacy product), and whether they are upping the required min amount in account at all times?
and the difference between the Premier fee saver and Gold?
Versus Premier Credit card charges and gold and the one account?

I'm marginal Gold online earner so not sure if upgrading to Premier is worth the loss of online ebucks earn... 1.5% versus 4%
 
Discontinuation of FNB Uncapped ADSL Rewards Offering

Just got the e-mail.
 
just to confirm guys?

these rules needs to be adhered to from 1 July? - eg your reward level and earnings might change for the august 9th ebucks run?

Any experience with Share Investor and the R50 monthly fee...
Worthwhile to pay to stay on level 5 Gold?

Yes, it basically manages itself, add funds, select your shares and forget about it.
I'm already up over 100% from when I started, I invested very little though.

Edit: sorry, I'm referring to the share builder

Correct, you will be measured on your 'behaviour'/consumption for the calendar month of JUL2016, eBucks will be awarded on or around 08AUG2016.
 
If my behaviour remains constant, I will drop with about 4500 points, from an easy RL5 to RL4. They've taken away many of the easy little things - 3 years with FNB (500), keeping within your credit limit (1500), decreasing the "CC only total monthly spend from 4000 to 3000. Ebucks will now be a bit more difficult.
 
Looks like I will drop a few levels. Not prepared to move funds into their TFSA when it underperforms vs my EE one and offers no flexibility (e.g. the midcap etf performs but its a tiny %).
 
Can anyone recommend a simple Fnb unit trust ( and easy to follow summary of what they do) for an uninformed simpleton :)

I started a FNB share saver accounts (one is a tax free one, the other normal), and on premier I will get loads of points that for that (or I hope so !!!!)

Crossing legs and arms !

Can anyone confirm :

the fnb savings or investment accounts (including tax free cash deposit) ... will a flexi fixed and a share saver count towards that ?
 
Quick question. If I shop at Makro or Dischem with my FNB card do I still need to swipe a "separate" ebucks card for double rewards?
