  4. Use international remittance apps.
    Send USD, it converts to PHP automatically, and goes straight to GCash.
    Fast, online, and low fees 💸📱

    • The machines are limited to how much they can handle per coin. Luckily, all I brought were anything below 25 ¢. I couldn't use larger value coins since its capacity is already all used up

    #PayMaya seems to require an verified account an involves a few extra steps. I only have their e-wallet, which I almost never use. I opted to send my trove to a #Gcash account, and the machine simply needs a #Globe number.

  6. Test..

    Huh, I never knew GCash had those features.

  8. Fuck #Gcash! and Fuck your one phone only policy!

    I bought a new phone, the LCD on my old is not responsive anymore. Tried to login on gcash. But the app prompts me to logout on my old phone. How can I do that if the phone is already dead?

  9. @chrismak
    Well, my usual* wallet does have enough cash, fortunately. 😁

    It's just weird because I normally use my #creditcard for any place that will take card payments, and I don't carry much #cash. I don't feel safe making trips to the #ATM. The less I use those machines, the better and safer, me thinks. So I like to save my cash for places where they don't have other payment options.

    #Google / #Apple Pay is not a thing here. We have #GrabPay #Maya #Gcash #ShopeePay.

    #Philippines #QRph

  10. So, I was verified on Gcash for a long time using my tourist immigration card.

    Now I’m married and have a probationary resident immigration card, but for some reason, gcash listed me as unverified and will not take my new immigration card.

    It’s actually rejected by the app, it doesn’t even get submitted. I have some friends with diplomatic immigration cards and they can’t get verified either.

    So, is there a good alternative to gcash that I can try to use?

  11. It's surprising that the #Philippines, with a digital payment headstart like #GCash, is taking so long to approve #AppleWallet and #GoogleWallet. What's with the delay, Bangko Sentral ng Pilipinas?

  12. Gcash keeps sending me a notification to verify my account before April, but I’m already verified. I opened a ticket and they tell me to reverify, but the app keeps saying my ID is not valid even though it is.

    Their support team keeps closing my tickets after telling me how to verify. Are they even reading my ticket that says, it’s not letting me upload my ID?

  13. @gowin LOL.

    They're charging to #GCash, but not #Maya?

    Is this a sign that the Ayala Group silently sold off their shares with G-Xchange, Inc.?

    Or, the conglomerate is starting to feel an impact because GCash decided to block phones with enabled:
    1. Sideloading (which many brands and models have enabled by default, and no way to turn-off (like the Oppo model I have).
    2. Dev options

    They actually added another st*pidity, citing “security” again:

    * You can only use GCash on the device where the correct SIM card is loaded. /facepalm

    Solution: Charge transfers from BPI to GCash so their first quarterly report will look pretty in the eyes of their non-techie board members and investors. To cover the decline in usage; and their silly “blame the users for security issues, not our system”.

    ROFL.

    @pinoy

  14. I was going to give ₱10,000 to 10 people yesterday, but #GCash told me my phone have (1) developer mode; and (2) install from other sources enabled when not. So forget it. #blameGCash

    #Philippines #LOLwtf

    Context:
    * The number 1 worst FinTech app in the Philippines, for 2023.
    * They are on a campaign blaming “developer mode” for GCash account related issues.
    * They also stupidly blocked “install from other sources” when many China-brand phones (like what I'm using, Oppo) have it enabled by default and can NOT be disabled.

    In other words, GCash alienated more than half of their users in their bid to blame their users for compromised GCash accounts.

    So, the trend now is to create scenarios (like the above) why one cannot send money, because GCash.

    ROFLMAO + WTFBBQ + /facepalm

    Yeah. I tried it one time at a small coffee shop. The #QR sign at the cashier had the #QRph logo in the center of the #QRcode, but the sign was branded #Gcash.

    👩 "Can I pay with #Maya?"
    (pointing at the QR PH logo)

    🤷‍♂️ "No, not really. Maybe it'll work as a transfer*."

    I tried and it was indeed treated as a transfer, with a 15-peso fee. I cancelled the transaction.

    And that is why it's still good to keep some cash handy. ☝️😄

  16. And I went to the supermarket and asked if they take digital wallet payments... #Maya #GrabPay #ShopeePay etc.

    But they only take card, cash or #Gcash.

    Well, I left my wallet at home and I hate Globe.

    Oh well... 🤷‍♀️

  18. 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

  19. Opened a ticket 2 weeks ago on #GCash's app, unable to transfer #PayPal funds. GCash reps say I should convert funds to PHP, but they've always been in PHP. Support incompetence is alarming & should make us all wary of keeping money in GCash. #CustomerServiceFail

  20. 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. 😉

    PS. Just make sure to cash in only what you need.

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

  22. 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.

    #Filipino #Philippines

    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. 🤪

  23. 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 🤦‍♂️
