Just found out that the daily limit for e-wallet cash-in at BPI side was decreased to 10k. If before I could cash in with just one transaction, now I have to divide it into several transactions.

While you can edit the limit, the pessimist in me suspects this is in preparation for the P5 charge per cash-in to #GCash starting October? So I have to pay more convenience fees with multiple cash-ins. Haha! 😆

But the optimist in me thinks this is good because unauthorized cash-ins are limited to 10k.

Can't cash in to #GCash via #BPI. Is it just me? No official advisory though.

for some reason, #Accessibility is broken again on #GCASH app on #Android in the #Philippines. I am trying to load up my wife's sim using the app and #Talkback is unable to activate the next button after entering the mobile number on the load screen. #Pinoy #Filipino #Pilipinas #Pinas #Blind

Between #GCash and #GrabPay, I like using the latter now for cashless payments whenever available.

1. You earn Grab Rewards points every time you use it, and you can then use those points for food, car and express deliveries.

2. If you cash in via credit card, you also earn points on your card, which can also be used to redeem rewards. Like air miles.

Hitting 2 birds with 1 stone. 😉

I then look at how #Bitcoin is popular worldwide but it's not as synonymous as #WeChat for payment. Even the alternative in some countries is #GCash and that's more widely used locally than #Bitcoin is.
It could be marketing push or ease of use standing in the way of adoption on a grand micro level.

@gowin I would usually use the same eWallet to transfer because of what you said, zero transaction fees. I have both eWallets too and use them for more or less the same reasons (paying cashless, sending or receiving money).

On the few times I would go #GCash to #Maya though, it's mostly between my own accounts. I wouldn't normally do it to other accounts. So it's on a need basis.

Question for you guys (see attached image): Isn't this little blue-yellow-red logo in the center of the #QRcode the #QRph logo, and not owned by #GCash? Which means it should* work with other* #eWallets?

I asked the cashier if I could pay with #Maya 📱👛 "Hindi puwede." 😕

I hate it when the only payment options are cash and Gcash. I like to save my cash -- trying to minimize visits to the ATM, to avoid crooks -- and #iHateGlobe.

@gowin
Is there an extra charge to paying with #QRph or is it the same as paying via an #eWallet's own QR code?

Woman approaches me at the mall, and asks,

👩 "Puwedeng patulong, kailangan ko ng #Gcash."

🤓 "Wala akong Gcash eh."

👩 "Ah okay."

🤓 "Galit ako sa Globe."

She chuckles understandingly.

It did occur to me that this may be a new #ModusOperandi of the many crooks roaming our cities. But she seems legit -- rather irresponsible to leave home without enough digital money, since she relies on it. And honestly, I do not* use Gcash. 🤪

Cashed in about 60% of my balance from Unionbank of the Philippines (my bank) to my Gcash (an e-wallet) to pay a loan. The cash in failed. My bank account now has less money that does not reflect in my gcash. Now have to go chasing after that lost cash with their CSRs. FML 🤦‍♂️

Cashed in about Php 50K+ from my bank (Unionbank of the Philippines) to Gcash. It failed. My bank account is now 52k less but my Gcash did not update. Now have to go chasing after that lost cash with their CSRs. FML 🤦‍♂️
