Beware of the fat biatchh on George St Westfield. Refuses to let me android pay as she cannot check the card is same as my ID since Android play does not display name. She said apple pay can. Well, good for her, I don't have apple pay. So if you use apple pay, she will definitely check the name so beware.
- illumination on 06/09/2018 - 11:57
  
  Does that mean Apple Pay can or does display name?
- Turd on 06/09/2018 - 12:01
  
  Isnt that anti-compeiditive?
  
  Call ACCC on her
- IMadeYouReadThis on 06/09/2018 - 12:12

  No, Apple Pay does not.
  - Turd on 06/09/2018 - 12:15
    
    She must own a iPhone.
    Abit racist against other phone users…
  - runamuck on 06/09/2018 - 12:27
    
    She said there is an option to display the name on the card for apple pay. She took my phone to check as well as she didn't believe me that Android pay as no such option.
    - andylch on 06/09/2018 - 12:31
      
      It is not appropriate to inspect customer's phone or wallet. She thinks she is a police?
    - Jared17 on 06/09/2018 - 12:48
      
      wtf! i hoped she asked your permission. if she did that on my phone without my approval. i would yell at her
    - runamuck on 06/09/2018 - 13:03
      
      @Jared17: I would smack her lol. Yeah she asked if she could check my phone.
  - IMadeYouReadThis on 06/09/2018 - 12:48
    
    No, Apple Pay does not.
    
    Correction - she is right, Apple Pay can show name of the card holder.
    - andylch on 06/09/2018 - 12:56
      
      At the end of the day, she can't refuse Google Pay as the payment method.
    - runamuck on 06/09/2018 - 13:01
      
      @andylch:she thinks she can since she cannot verify the card I'm using is under my name. She even showed me a print out that she is required to check id as part of this promotion. Very stubborn. I guess I come back another day when its not her shift.

  I just purchased 4 gift card from that lady today, used Apple Pay, she just checked the name of one card in the Apple Pay, no everyone, so don’t worry if you have supplementary card under different names. Apple Pay show names in the information tab.

westfield booth next to microsoft.
there is one lady who do the id checks at the queue.
i am a guy.
showed her my friend's (female name) amex with matching ID.
she didnt blink and said ok you are good.

whats the point???? when i bought $3,500 laptop with CC no store need to check my ID. just cant believe it

  So as long as we have our supps' photo IDs, then it's fine?
- Maxxjet on 06/09/2018 - 15:10
  
  I am wondering if this is the standard practice when there is no Amex or any other promotion , if yes , i would say it is fine. If this is specific to this Amex promotion it is clearly an overkill , and even degrading TBH - I guess, lack of competition puts these guys in a position to abuse customers ( for teh sake of a few bad guys )
  - Turd on 06/09/2018 - 15:13
    
    +1
    
    Semi SOP, if it's a high value about >$995 usually they will check ID. Due to fraud.
    
    But having 10 x $50 is weird but "not everyone has that many AMEX" cards, or knows how to do it.
    Thus they put it into the too hard basket and ask.
    
    Just like when Harvey Normans have their discounts, they refuse to accept AMEX< but VISA is fine.
    - Maxxjet on 06/09/2018 - 15:15
      
      Mind you, they aks for ID when people only buy one $50
    - Turd on 06/09/2018 - 15:16
      
      @AllWins: Because of the influx of people buying them.
    - Maxxjet on 06/09/2018 - 15:22
      
      +1
      
      @Turd: So they get panic ? What is the difference between this promotion and normal time ? The $20 " cash-back" can only go back to the account owners card - from Westffield prosective - the fraud risk doesn't increase, again, if they ask for ID all the time then they are just doing what they do - but if they do this in response to the influx of people cashing in the promtion - thinking checking ID will treduce the fraud - they are lokking at the wrong controls
    - Turd on 06/09/2018 - 15:23
      
      @AllWins: Yes they panic. HQ are just overjealous people who dont like people getting a bargain, exactly like harvey norman people
    - CyberMurning on 06/09/2018 - 15:58
      
      @AllWins: exactly. amex offer has nothing to do with westfield. business as usual. people come and buy. any frauds with the card, customer deals with amex directly just like other cards visa masters etc. no need to enforce special policy.

Was just there, nice vibe. So disappointed with the BONDS store if anyone else was looking forward to the 40% off. The store is temporarily closed from today for the next few days, but still taunts us with 40% off signs everywhere! They redirect you to Myer which only has 25% off and not nearly as much choice.

Got an awesome young chap processed our cards without check ID at Sydney Central Plaza store. all card process no issues

Not so friendly lady at Pitt St mall we both ID checked, there we have our family IDs bring along and show her still reject us, say she have to be here buy it. Did the swap cards trick use my family card to paid after checking. My own 2 cards will use next time visit there end of this week. :)

Myer lady at toys section are just awesome, all card split payments no issue and even try to have friendly casual chat with you how happy she doing with many people last couple of days.

So yesterday, Pitt St did split transactions to speed up the process - except it still wasn't in our favour. They were only willing to do $50 gift card each (each one incurring at $2.95 as usual). Basically the process went like this: they swiped 5 gift cards in succession, typed in $52.95 for each transaction; each time after a tap, the next payment would automatically come up without them intervening.

From this experience, them not willing to split payment so that it speeds up the process is completely bullshit. It's actually much faster for everyone (they only have to write one gift card and the split payments are automatic once set up initially with no manual intervention). Westfield just wants to maximise their profits from the activation fees.

  As someone who has spent their time on the registers, it's definitely not automatic when splitting payments. You have to manually type in the amount for each amount you want to split and if you're not careful, you can easily make a mistake on the transaction and have to cancel and start all over again.

    Self checkout at woolies and coles is the same. If you type in 50000 instead of 5000 you have to start over again!

    Correct, it's not automatic normally, as someone who has also spent some time on registers.
    
    As someone who experienced this transaction, then only needed to set up the split payment initially (not after each payment) on their POS. After the person had done that, they went to help the other colleague while I was just tapping away.
    
    Unless you've spent some time on their registers, I don't think you can say the automation after the initial setup is definitely not possible.

Just finished off doing our 12 AMex cards today. At the Westfield (next to Microsoft), the lady said she can't accept payment from my phone unless she can see my name on the card. Fortunately, my name appears with Samsung Pay but not with Google Pay. I also learnt a game called "switcheroo". At Myers,the lady asked me to explain the promo to her as she wants to get in on it as well :)….complete contrast in attitudes!!

  No. Spend your $50 at your favourite shops that are participating in the city. If you shop at UNIQLO, that's my top pick for Melbourne (no gift cards though).

    Is split payment allowed at uniqlo? Say if my combined total is $400+ can i split into 8?

      I don't know; try it out and let us know. Going by how impractical their returns policy is (from past experience), I wouldn't be surprised if they say no splitting.

      It is allowed. I splitted across 2 cards (apple pay + physical card). The staff was so casual that I'm sure he would be fine even if i had to split into 8.

      Because it's not a participating store
