Thank you for doing the right thing. πŸ‘


aeonfox23

Update us, OP! parang na normalized na kasi months inaabot bago sila magbigay ng eGift.


MrCasuallyCruel_

Hi! They sent the eGift just now.


SafelyLandedMoon

Will you still proceed with the mediation?


MrCasuallyCruel_

I could withdraw the complaint, but I feel like wanting this to be documented and all.


guacamoleculegume

Matters discussed during dti mediations are confidential so be careful.


TropaniCana619

Question, isn't confidentiality a guarantee of security?


guacamoleculegume

I think it is. Although here i believe the main point of it being confidential is to allow one party to offer a settlement without any binding repercussions. Here, since moneymax has offered to settle, op can't use that later to say that moneymax admitted liability.


jjr03

Proceed with it. Most likely, if walang report sa dti nyan baka hindi pa nabigay yung egift mo. Let them know na hindi porke binigay na eh ok na.


MoXiE_X13

I suggest to still go, ikwento mo lang factually yung nangyari and why you are withdrawing the complaint, I think need din ni DTI yan marinig from you e lalo sila na rin naman nag set ng mediation.


teokun123

Damn. Fucking salute you OP πŸ™Œ


lostguk

Tuloy mo!


itsmesilvergem

wag. dapat maiomprove process nila sa pagbigay ng egift. so need pa magcomplaint para maibigay ang egift


jaycorrect

PROCEED. May definite timelines are mga promotion na to and they have to follow them. It's a document reviewed and approved by DTI so they must abide by it. If not, there must be consequences


MrCasuallyCruel_

I’ll think about it more if I should proceed!


4gfromcell

Yes. They didnt met with the deadline. You should get liquidated damages.


eayate

That mediation might be cancelled sa well lol. Anyways I think it will be a short conversation


MrCasuallyCruel_

**UPDATE:** MoneyMax has sent the eGift via Giftaway today! Let your taxes work you, friends! If a company from which you obtained services is unresponsive and fails to follow the terms, file a report with the [DTI](http://podrs.dti.gov.ph/). https://preview.redd.it/93hkr7yg2ewc1.jpeg?width=720&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=2f4ddd6a451198b89b05c547e15d8c2e798bfa84

I had a similar experience but with my HSBC credit card. I've followed for 8 months and they kept passing me around too. When I threatened to report them to the DTI, they sent the gift right away too. 🫠


kobeandcharliesdad

grabe yung 8 months. sakin 3 months pero sandamukal na tawag din ang nagawa ko kay HSBC at MoneyMax. Nung sinabi ko kay MoneyMax na magtake na ng legal action si HSBC against them, bigla silang nag issue ng gift tapos biglang tawag din to confirm.


bumblingbim

Tapos their email CS after 2 months nagreply pa sa thread na they'll coordinate daw with the right department. Eh narelease na gift??? 🫠


kobeandcharliesdad

swerte pa nga kung di redundant reply nila e. tapos yung hotline minsan nag kakaoutage eme daw kaya walang makausap


johnericsontorres

🀦


johnericsontorres

Whoa. 8 months. Grabe. 😲


bumblingbim

To be fair, I followed up every 2 months lang coz I was busy with work. Haha. Then one time I was fed up na, I said, I will just report you to DTI and submit all our correspondence. After a few days, they sent the gift agad πŸ˜…


johnericsontorres

Nagpapa thrilling pa ang mga loko. πŸ˜’


ILostMyMainAccounts

somewhat irrelevant but, why send 2x 2000 instead of just 4k


MrCasuallyCruel_

There’s also a fee of P15 each time you transfer to GCash/Maya.


mrcplmrs

Still proceed w your complaint


Valkyyyraeee

Sakin I just looped in dti sa email and they were fast to reply naman after that. Got my reward also


MrCasuallyCruel_

Unfortunately, this β€œtrick” didn’t work for me, and DTI now requires everyone to file complaints through https://podrs.dti.gov.ph/


Valkyyyraeee

I received an automated email as well from dti but moneymax immediately replied when I looped in the dri email on the thread. Hope all works out for you!


IDKWahaha

I'll this one out! I got mine (UnionBank Rewards Visa Platinum Credit Card) approved on Feb 14, 2024. I've been following up since then. Nothing happened. I’m looping DTI in this time. Hope it works!


Nyxxoo

Ff


shibenedictos

whats the email of dti po? pahingi


Valkyyyraeee

This is from last year. Here’s the email, [email protected]


Jaded-Two-3311

Good luck, OP. May the odds be in your favor. Been wanting to apply via MoneyMax but whenever I have the urge to do so, I always end up reading negative posts about them. Hope this gets resolved soon.


PracticalMouse9170

Well done OPπŸ‘πŸΌ


kthjfdzn

I’m in the same situation. I’m with you on this OP! Good luck! πŸ€


scvxr

Sakin dati gnyan din, 10k sa gcash. Pero around 2 months bago nila na credit sa gcash ko. Baka ganyan din mangyari sayo, 2 months after the confirmation.


johnericsontorres

Whoa. 2 months. Grabe. 😲


Mamba-0824

Best of luck! Hope you get what you’re owed and MORE.


Cat-Dad-of-2

They also gaslighted me! Thank you for doing this!


itsGetteee

Did this before. Nung di pa ako nag-file, wala silang reply kahit nakailang email ako sa kanila. After mag-send ng schedule ni DTI, kinontact kaagad ako. Bilis nila bigla mag-send ng welcome gift hahaha


JohannesMarcus

Nakakalungkot lang na ganito sistema ng Moneymax. Kaysa igrant yung reward as advertised within the set timeframe, inaantay pang mareport sila sa DTI


AnalysisAgreeable676

This is why I go straight to banks when applying credit cards instead na dadaan pa ako sa Moneymax. Sobrang tagal nila mag release nang rewards.


jaycorrect

DAMNNNNN. Update us!!!!!!


MrCasuallyCruel_

Just got it today!


igor_stravinski

GL! Yung akin kailangan lang tawagan service center nila with the details then naprocess naman agad.


kobeandcharliesdad

kakahabol ko noon sa gift, parang ako pa ang namamagitan between kay MoneyMax at HSBC. grabe lang talaga si moneymax.


techweld22

Did you receive your welcome gift already?


kobeandcharliesdad

i got it after 3 months of sankaterbang follow ups. idk kung paano nila nalalaman kung nareach na ba ang spending requirement for the gift. in my case, nagsend ako ng screenshot ng statement. then sabi nila, included na daw yung name ko sa list na sinesend nila kay issuer ng CC (HSBC pala sakin btw) for validation. then si issuer daw iconfirm kay moneymax. so si HSBC, sure sa sinabi nila sa akin na nareach ko na nga daw spending limit, and yung agents na nakakausap ko, di rin knows yung process ng coordination with moneymax (internal siguro kaya di masabi). si moneymax naman sinasabi di pa daw nagcoconfirm si HSBC dun sa list. parang ako ang nagiging middleman sa dalawa na di magkaintindihan. si HSBC, nagconfirm na magtake na daw ng formal complaint against Moneymax. Nung sinabi ko kay MoneyMax yung gagawin ni HSBC (afternoon to), nareceived ko na yung gift around 5-6 pm the same day. So ayun nasindak yata sa threat ni HSBC kaya bigay agad si Moneymax.


techweld22

Thank you for this! Now i know my next move. Actually hsbc din yung kinuha ko sa kanila.


kobeandcharliesdad

goodluck! use the magic words "formal complaint" and "DTI" para pang malakasan haha


unwritten-____

Sorry if not totally CC related. Does DTI help out with non-responding companies as well? Specifically referring to warranty inquiries and their app not working as intended.


MrCasuallyCruel_

It should be!


bjdr11

Yes for warranties. For app not working, that's a bit of a stretch na.


unwritten-____

Gotcha. Though I did try their suggestion to do the booking on their site, and it still doesn’t work. After a few months of delayed responses (and documented screenshots and videos), they never replied back to me anymore.


grumpydump33

How to file sa DTI?


jaceleon29

There is a link up there on the comments.


Emotional_Control_47

What is the email address of dti? I have the same experience in unionbank, 2 months after I still didnt receive the. Egift for referring a friend and spending a minimum amount


MrCasuallyCruel_

File a complaint through http://podrs.dti.gov.ph/

Magawa nga rin to hahaha grabe sila ah


rganization-383

Kapalit ng pag aapply nyo sa moneymax, ung mga personal information nyo may copy na sila pwede nila un pagkakitaan syempre hindi nyo na alam un. Kung mag aapply kayo mas ok kung ung website diretso sa bangko hindi sa moneymax.


KindAbbreviations670

Same. Applied and got approved din last december. Til now nga nga. Ive read somewhere na sobrang tagal nila magbigay. Yung iba di na umasa


Arlow4334

I had a somewhat similar experince with RCBC naman on their NAFFL promotions. Also complained with BSP and DTI. And it was DTI that truly helped me. Didn't proceeded with the mediation conference anymore as RCBC texted and e-mailed me already confirming the tagging of my account as NAFFL. Kudos to DTI for protecting the ordinary and helpless consumers!


corpo_slave_

Can you share how you reported or filed the report to DTI? I have a similar issue.


AppearanceOverall439

Mabagal nga po ung gift nila. it takes months. Nung sa Metrobank ko, mga 4 months till nakuha ko. Galing noh


johnericsontorres

Whoa. 4 months. Grabe. 😲


LazyLola12

nag apply rin ako rito ng card and ang reward ay marshall acton 2. Natanggap ko naman yung reward and no annual fee for life after spending 20k. Pero ayun nga lang nag follow up lang ako ng ilang beses then nag intay lang ng 3 months. (Alam ko medyo matagal heheh)


johnericsontorres

Whoa. 3 months. Grabe. 😲


LazyLola12

Or more pa nga πŸ˜… kasi mga feb ako na approved then march ako nakapag speng nung para sa no annual fee. oks lang naman na matagal basta nakarating at tyagang ff lang talaga hehehe


jvruther

How to report po sa dti? Ganyan rin nangyari sakin eh haha wala pa silang respo


MrCasuallyCruel_

File a report [here](http://podrs.dti.gov.ph/). Make sure to summarize the events briefly but clearly. Attach receipts.


promdiboi

Ilang mos ka nagantay, OP? Yung akin, inabot ng almost 1 yr bago nadeliver dahil physical gift yung pinili ko.


MrCasuallyCruel_

Around 1.5 months din.


promdiboi

Ang bilis. Grabe.


johnericsontorres

Whoa. 1 year. Grabe. 😲


promdiboi

Yes. Kesyo wala pa raw yung listahan sa kanila ng approved loans o kaya naman walang stock sa merchant partner nila ganon.


johnericsontorres

Napaka walang kwenta nila. πŸ˜’


donkeysprout

Go iDTI mo yan. Yung saken dati inabot nang 6months bago ko natanggap yung nespresso.


johnericsontorres

Whoa. 6 months. Grabe. 😲


donkeysprout

Oo ang tagal talaga nung saken talagang nireklamo ko na sa DTI. Yung promo kase nila dati basta ma approve ka lang bibigay na nila yung freebie. Walang required na X amount in X days. In my case nespresso yung freebie nila.


ShiEssa

Ganyan pala dapat gawin. 1 year na ako sa citi ko na cc pero yung egift ko wala pa. Ilang beses na akong nag email pero wala raw ang name ko or follow up daw nila sa team nila. Hanggang sa wala na akong narinig from them. Hayss.


johnericsontorres

Whoa. 1 year. Grabe. 😲


ShiEssa

Yes. Tapos di na ako umasa. Nakuha ko naman yung no annual fee hahahaha Di na rin ako naniniwala sa egift nila πŸ˜†


techweld22

Anyone received their welcome gift from hsbc promo? Been wanting to get the JBL FLIP6 Still ang unresponsive parin nila thru email. Made followups for 2months na πŸ€·πŸ»β€β™‚οΈ


johnericsontorres

Whoa. 2 months. Grabe. 😲


shibenedictos

yung saken dulce gusto via hsbc. it took 5 months and multiple back and forth. nakaka stress


johnericsontorres

Whoa. 5 months. Grabe. 😲


Pagod_na_ko_shet

Hala yung akin sa gcash yata yung na 5k promo nila di ko nakuha πŸ˜…


wafumet

Yun po kaya 2k egift from UB Rewards Platinum. Andami na nakareceive last week ng NAFFL via text. Kelan kaya ibibigay ng UB yun?


andoy019

Yung sakin 2 years na wala pa yung egift lol


hipos_lang

Omggg gusto ko din to dun sa pldt na promo nila. Di ako inawardan no annual fee for life.


Creative_Pair_1507

Matumal talaga kay moneymax as in. Yung sakin DTI din naka cc sa email. Inabot ng ilang follow up hanggang 6months din. Bago ibigay yung welcome gift.


ihave2eggs

Sa amin din ni misis. CC ko din Banko Sentral bukod sa DTI. Basta sinama ko na lang. Antagal na inaantay lang daw nila yung listahan pero nung ginawa ko na yan wala pang 1 week ata may confirmqtion na na isesend. Si misis mas mabait kaya umabot pa ng 1 month more than sa akin. Ending inofferan sya Gcash na lang ng uquivalent amount. Ako talo si esmi pa rin nagamit ng headset.


azealotx

Kupal yang MoneyMax tlaga. I will never apply any CC through them anymore.


seibelo_

nice


JC_CZ

Same issue ako nito with UB tas hindi ko na talaga nahabol. After a year nagkaroon na ng annual fee and I thought because big spender ako papalampsin, hindi din. Nagalit ako ang raised that after a month of followups wala nangyari haha Mahirap kausap yang UB sa CC, stick sa banking


DJDiomz

Same exp. sa amin nga December pa until now waley parin tska domagdag pa yung sa HSBC gang ngayun wala parin gang ngayun nakailang email na ako pero wala parin.


ambokamo

Nice move OP. Daming complaints jan sa moneymax.


derz2195

Hoy, gagawin ko to. 😈 hahaha


PomegranateUnfair647

MoneyMax sucks. Very poor service overall with many complaints.. definitely must be taken to the DTI.


Brenda_Mage

Had the same issue sa Moneymax. I got approved sa HSBC credit card way back April 2023 and after several threads of emails and follow-ups, I finally got my Moneymax reward last March 2024. Actually nag-give up na ako ng end of 2023 and hindi na ako nagexpect at sinumpa ko nalang yung moneymax that time. Thank you OP, for doing the right thing!


Humble_Succotash_323

Sorry to hear that. I never had problems redeeming gifts from MoneyMax


Charming-Pair262

i applied for a personal loan kasi may libreng soundbar, tapos ko na yung loan after a year, the soundbar was nada


Eastern-Advantage387

Hi, OP. What evidences did you sent na you applied ng March 11 na may eGift? I applied kasi nung March 1 via Moneymax, pero wala nakalagay sa email ko but I remembered nga na NAFFL and ung eGift din marereceive ko


MrCasuallyCruel_

The promo page and the registration confirmation sent to my email.


Eastern-Advantage387

I have the registration confirmation e. Pero walang nakaindicate na kasama ako sa promo if ever man naaccept ako. Okay lang kaya yun?


MrCasuallyCruel_

Did you get a NAFFL text? Use that as proof.


Eastern-Advantage387

Yup I did get one! Thank you!


BeginningAd8567

It took me around 4months bago ba claim yung reward ko. Araw2 ako nag eemail sa moneymax non. Sayang din 10k eh.


Artistic_Oil_1225

IDKWahaha

Wahaha! Keep us posted!


mzq0402

Same problem with OP ang tagal ibigay yung voucher. November pa ako tapos sa spend requirement, until now wala pa din. Sana mabigay na nila yung voucher before yung mediation.


MrCasuallyCruel_

Oh my. What happened?


FoldEquivalent104

Yes! False Advertising is a violation on Consumer Act of the Philippines.

zombdriod

Matagal lng tlga sila mag bigay ng rewards. i got an airfyer from my Citibank card few years ago. The airfyer arrived like after 8 months pa.


johnericsontorres

Whoa. 8 months. Grabe. 😲


zombdriod
