2022-08-04 As for the Maina Point, "Nothing is as expensive as free" is absolutely right. [長年日記]

As the saying goes, "Nothing is as expensive as free".

"Take whatever you can get from the government"

is the Ebata's policy.

Now all of the Ebata could get "Maina Point"(equal to \15k) except for my junior daughter, who doesn't have "my number card".

Today, we could confirm that the point has been put in each application.

-----

However, the operation of this "Maina Point" was very hard to complete that.

There are several reasons as follows.

(0)Firstly, my senior daughter tried to read her mynumbers card using an app on her smartphone, but he could not finish the task because of repeat the same display again and again. This time, my PC has a card reader device, we could avoid the problem.

(1)The "Maina Point(15000 points)" are not transferred to "the account of utility bill transfer" (e.g. the Ebata's main bank")

(2) People who are not using e-money on their smartphones cannot get the points.

(3)Just minor apps can receive the point, (I have never heard the names of app)

-----

As for the (2), I think that it is extremely nonsense.

There is no way to get Maina Point(15000 points) for people who don't use e-money app by their smartphones.

I happened to have installed "PayPay" app to make me look cool. If not, I could not have received the point at all.

I worked with complaining to the display, "Why can I get them by Amazon Gift ticket ?" or "Why don't they send me it by "nanaco card" ?"

-----

To my surprise, it was

an unexpected paradigm that we have to use the ID provided by smartphone app (e.g. PayPay) in order to register an account number for utility bill transfers

I spent much time until I noticed that.

I needed about a hour to register it, but after that I just needed less than three minutes.

-----

In conclusion,

(1)You cannot register your account number for utility bill without e-money app on your smartphone

(2)You cannot get the 15000 points without e-money app on your smartphone

As for the Maina Point, "Nothing is as expensive as free" is absolutely right.

I wish you all the best of luck.
