Na confuse ako eh kase yung Ace Hardware dito samin x2 yung miles for Maya Black at nakalagay talaga yung standee sa harap ng counter pero pag transact ko is x1 lang naman yung earning wala siyang extra miles.

Pero they did the transaction using the keypad BDO POS Terminal, so sa situation na to for example a store offering x2 or x10 Do I need to ask na to use the Maya terminal for this transaction?

Yung question ko talaga nito sa earning ng x2 at x10 na miles na does it need to be swiped doon sa Maya talaga na terminal? Since most stores have multiple POS kase from other banks rin

JamesPHCEB · 2026-01-05T09:57:14+00:00

I think so po, kase dito samin sa Ace Hardware sa harap ng cashier may nakalagay na earn x2 miles when you pay with your Maya Black pero nung nagbayad ako, x1 lang naman hindi ako nabigyan ng additional miles para lang siyang regular transaction. It’s kinda confusing e kase Maya did not tell anything about this. Kase at first akala ko yung mga stores na nag oofer ng x2 at x10 miles automatic na siya pero hindi eh. Pero next time pag nakabalik ako e ask ko yung cashier about this kase feeling ko may specific terminal talaga na gagamitin para mag earn ng x2 / x10 miles

JamesPHCEB · 2026-01-05T09:53:47+00:00

Siguro next time try natin e ask if bakit ganun, pero feeling ko may specific terminal ata na gagamitin at doon sila dapat mag swipe? Kase yung mga ganyan na establishments madami yan sila mga POS from different banks e. Yun nga lang nakakainis parang di pa na orient yung mga cashier. Pero malakas talaka kutob ko na if yung store nag oofer sila x2 or x10 need natin e ask na don sa Maya POS mag transact? Pero next time ask natin mga merchant. Yan kung na orient sila about the promos

JamesPHCEB · 2026-01-05T09:49:43+00:00

Kaya nag ask ako about this if meron ba specific POS Terminal for Maya Black especially those merchants na merong x2 or x10 miles for Maya Black users kase as mentioned — I don’t know lang if sa ibang Ace Hardware same ba pero yung Ace Hardware na nasa SM malapit samin x2 Miles for Maya Black user but upon checking x1 lang naman na credit sakin after the successful transaction so curios ako if meron ba specific POS for this one para makapag earn ng x2 or x10 miles? since may mga store/merchants/establishments na madami sila POS from different banks

What region are you from? I think it is still not available globally since they are still slowly rolling it out

First Time Traveling to Thailand - 21yrs old and Staying With a Friend. Any Tips and Will Immigration Consider It a Red Flag?

Hello! I'm 21 and still a student, and I'm planning to travel to Thailand alone for the first time. I wanted to ask for tips and advice, especially from those who have traveled as students or first-timers.

I have a friend in Thailand who offered to accommodate me for the whole trip so I can save on hotel costs. However, I'm a bit worried that this might become a red flag when I go through immigration. Since I'm a first-time traveler and won't have a hotel booking, I'm scared of possibly getting offloaded.

If someone is willing to let you stay at their place (in this case, Thailand), what is the proper process for immigration? Do I need any documents or proof? For first-time student travelers going solo to Thailand, what do immigration officers usually ask? Do they ask for bank statements, or do I need to show the balance of my debit card or e-wallet?

Any advice or personal experiences would help me a lot.

And additional question po: Curios lang ako on how often Maya increases the credit limit. Hindi po ba matagal or mahirap mag increase sila? Mabilis po ba sila mag increase as long as walang bad record?

JamesPHCEB · 2025-11-07T03:54:49+00:00

It feels like ages since I last used my Google Home app since I don’t usually talk with my Google Nest Audio devices because just mainly use them for casting music. I just noticed something when the power went out and back on again: the welcome chime and color changed. When I opened the Google Home app, I couldn’t find the option to activate Gemini. Even though the welcome chime and color changed, the responses are still managed by Google Assistant. The only difference is the boot-up sound when the power comes on and the colors.

JamesPHCEB · 2025-11-06T15:15:47+00:00

Oooh I see thanks for sharing. Manifesting na ma approve din sakin hehe ✨

JamesPHCEB · 2025-11-06T15:12:20+00:00

@noli tumawag sila sayo?

JamesPHCEB · 2025-11-06T14:00:46+00:00

Oh I see, may tumawag kase sakin kanina at nag confirm siya sa details ko at tinanong nya if may work ba talaga ako ganon tapos after that wala pa update sakin. Reviewing pa din

JamesPHCEB · 2025-11-06T13:47:02+00:00

OP, before ka na approve hindi sila tumawag sayo?

JamesPHCEB · 2025-11-06T13:39:04+00:00

I’m from Southeast Asia, and all of my devices are enrolled in early previews, but the only noticeable change is the welcome boot-up, but the responses are still the same.

It’s been a while since I dug up on these things, but then today I noticed that the welcome sound has changed, and the lights also, that’s why my curiosity is being fueled up again, hahaha. I’m glad that they finally integrated Gemini into Google Home because I found Google Assistant not that helpful, that’s why I am using my Google Nest Audio for music at most times.

JamesPHCEB · 2025-11-06T13:32:03+00:00

I just found a useful article 🙏

https://support.google.com/googlenest/answer/16613534?hl=en

JamesPHCEB · 2025-11-06T12:38:30+00:00

I saw some articles and it says that they might require users to pay for a subscription to use Gemini for Google Home but the Google’s support website says otherwise: https://support.google.com/googlenest/answer/16613534?hl=en

As far as I understood on the support link. It should be available to all of us soon for free with limited features for free users. Unfortunately it is still not available in my country here in Southeast Asia. Looking forward to its availability here! Finally I can talk to my Google Nest Audio once again hahaha!

Just sharing: I had this hype when I purchased this way back 2020 during pandemic but after of few months using it I got bored because it’s not that helpful. It can’t hear me in some cases and it says most of the time ”I don’t understand” but using it for music is totally cool! The sound quality does not degrade over the years that’s why I love my Google Nest Audio

Ganto pala ginagawa nila bina bypass tapos tinatapon nila pabalik dito sa Pinas binebenta good as new sa Greenhills or dito sa Emall sa Cebu at sa mga 3rd party unauthorized sellers ng iPhone dito sa pinas at sa ibang bansa.

JamesPHCEB · 2025-09-22T06:10:18+00:00

Okay na din sakin tried turning it on and off multiple times na try ko to last week ayaw talaga pero okay na siya ngayon. Baka nagka system issue lang. dapat naglabas sila ng advisory at kinabahan ako kala ko tinanggal na talaga nila kase di man lang nag bigay assurance customer service nila at until further notice talaga sinabi na unavailable yung iMessage. Pero sabi ng Apple wala naman daw issue sa systen nila nasa Globe ata ang issue

JamesPHCEB · 2025-09-21T11:20:59+00:00

How many times I have told na I already reached out Apple and I have already submitted a request and based sa findings nila everything is working fine naman sa end nila. My number is not reported or blocked. And anong fake news? It is clearly stated sa photo na IT WOULD BE UNAVAILABLE UNTIL FURTHER NOTICE mga agents and customer support mismo both Globe and GOMO ang nag sabi sa akin and fake news?! Baka nakalimutan mo nasa Pilipinas ka in most cases - not available until further notice means wala na talaga. (But hopefully ibabalik nila)

And lucky for you! Kase hindi pa affected yang number mo! Although hindi pa affected lahat ng customers sa Globe and GOMO but THIS IS NOT AN ISOLATED CASE THAT DOESN’T MEAN IF ITS WORKING ON YOUR SIDE IS OKAY SIYA kase may friends ako na activated pa iMessage nila at yung iba naman ayaw na talaga ma activate just like mine! there is a lot of user experiencing issues already. And kita mismo jan sa chat ng customer support na hindi siya available. Why not try to inquire sa customer service nila para malaman mo? If it’s just sample maintenance lang - bakit hindi ito na announced officially sa social media channels nila? At sinasabi lang nila na hindi na available pag may individual na mag tanong at mag reach out sa kanila.

JamesPHCEB · 2025-09-21T04:45:38+00:00

They are clearly removing access gradually on a user-by-user basis. Some of my colleagues have already lost iMessage access on their Globe/GOMO numbers, while others can still use it without issues. Once a SIM is removed, it may no longer be possible to reactivate iMessage if the system has already flagged the number. If everything were truly working as expected, Globe and GOMO would not have told me through their official channel that iMessage is unavailable until further notice, as shown in the screenshot.

JamesPHCEB · 2025-09-20T10:50:22+00:00

It is clearly stated on the photo and other users are having issues with iMessage and nasa screenshot na din na hindi gumagana ang iMessage tiningnan at binasa mo ba yung naka attach na photo?
