Using account credit for payment

phm — Thu, 29 May 2025 14:38:06 GMT

I have a $50 credit on my account. How can I use this as payment instead of my monthly top up. The system doesn't recognize that I have a credit and keeps charging my credit card instead of using my credit.

Hey there @phm,

Welcome to the Community and thanks for your post.

In order to use a saved up balance, you will need to change your payment method to account balance in My Account. Please note that if you're currently receiving an auto top-up bonus, if you change your payment method, the bonus will be removed.

Let the Community know if you have any questions.

How can I apply my Reward money towards my monthly payment?

I cannot see that Option to use my Account Balance in My Account. I only see an option to cancel Automatic Top UP.

Is that where I can find that Option? Will I lose my extra 250 MB Data Bonus if I don't have Auto Top UP even though I have $50 of Rewards? Thanks.

Good morning @jm3nd.

Yes, that would be correct; any auto top-up bonus would fall off automatically once the auto top-up is removed.

It's recommended you leave the top-up as is, and hold onto the additional funds to add service passes if needed in the future.

Hello again,

I have 2 250 MB Rewards One is for Automatic Top Ups which is now clear to me. The second is for making 6 Payments which I have done more than 6, will I lose that Bonus also if I start Paying with my Rewards?

It didn't say that I should pay with Auto Top UP, I think. It referred to making 6 On Time Payments. Why should I lose that when the The Rewards are just like Advance Payments, I have $ 50 on it now and it will grow by $ 15 in the next few months. Just asking so I know what to expect. Thank you.

Pre-authorized payment and still manually paying

If i have enough every month in my Lucky acct and they also have my cc ,, can i request it come out

Auto top

MK4753 — Wed, 21 Jun 2023 22:22:50 GMT

Hey there, I have a current balance of $150 and my plan is $50. Now if i set up auto top up right now, it says every month you will be charged for your plan from the credit card. However, I want to set up now and get the bonus, but I want to use all the current balance first and after that gets over, I want to get charged from the credit card automatically. Is the system smart enough to use my currently balance first and only charge to my card automatically when the current balance is used up? Or I need to manually cancel it and use the current balance first and after that is over, set up the auto top up??

I would like this question answered too.
If I leave do I lose the money that is in my accounts?

MK4753 — Sun, 01 Oct 2023 18:52:50 GMT

Hey Glen,

Unfortunately, if you leave the current balance is not refundable. So just cancel auto-top up and use current balance first. So even if you leave, there is no amount left for you to be worried about.

Automatic Top Up

Kaur — Fri, 03 Nov 2023 22:50:12 GMT

So the monthly plan I have is for $15. I currently have a balance of $15 on the account so when money is due in a few days will it auto charge my debit the $15 because I’m doing auto top up or would it use the balance on my account and charge me the next month? Thanks in advance!

Re: Automatic Top Up

MK4753 — Sun, 05 Nov 2023 20:42:16 GMT

Hey Kaur,

According to Lucky Mobile's updated terms on payment method, account balance should be used first if it is enough to cover the plan.

However, for some reason it is not implemented properly and it does not work sometimes.

Please, if possible, if you are ok with letting the card charge (not removing the auto top-up) for the next billing date, can you let me know if the current balance of $15 was used from the account or it charged the debit card? If it charges the debit card, you can remove the auto top up and the system will automatically use the current balance on the next billing cycle. However, if the system is working properly now, it will automatically recognize that a current balance is available for top up and it will not charge the card for this month.

I would really appreciate your reply on this as it makes me provide better solutions to other users.

Thank you Kaur.

Sure no problem. I need it to deduct actually, but was asking to make sure it will deduct, if it doesn’t then I’m stuck I need to find another bill for this month as I’m trying to gain a bank credit.

Re: Automatic Top Up

MK4753 — Sun, 05 Nov 2023 20:53:23 GMT

Hey Kaur,

If you want it to be deducted from the debit card, then I think you should not cancel the auto top-up. As there are 50% chance that it will still charge the card, even if you have an account balance.

But, if you remove the auto top-up, it is 100% true that the payment will be done using the current balance of the account.

Thank you for the quick reply. Let us know what happens during the next billing date.

Hey Kaur,

Just following up regarding the Auto-Top up. Was the amount from current balance used to renew your $15 plan, or did it charged your Debit/Credit card?

Re: Automatic Top Up

Kaur — Wed, 22 Nov 2023 07:49:18 GMT

Sadly it took from the balance I already had even though I chose the automatic top up each month option…

Can you pay your monthly charge on lucky with your prepaid account balance funds?

Gib — Thu, 14 Dec 2023 02:55:16 GMT

I paid for my top up this month last month on the 30th, i now found out it was to my balance fund instead of my next month. I don't know what to do.

How to cancel top-up because there's no cancel button

Bluemoon39 — Wed, 03 Apr 2024 16:51:56 GMT

I would like to know what to do to cancel a top-up.

I made a payment on March 15th for one month (it's what I hope).

I verified my account page and found "Monthly Charge Date ; 15th of every month".

But when I go to "My Prepaid Account" page and click "Change Automatic Top-Up", what I can see on the "Automatic Top-Up Options" page, there are only two buttons to choose ; "Automatic Top-Up: Monthly" and "Automatic Top-Up: Monthly with Low Balance".

There is not any "Cancel Automatic Top-up" button.

Does this mean that currently I don't have any top-up ? Even if April 15th comes, no payment will be charged on my account ? Or do I need to do something to stop a top-up ?

Anyway, I don't need to use this plan no more so I want to stop the payment and top-up. (Maybe next year I think I will use Lucky mobile again so I would like to keep this account, but there's no need to use any plans)

Is there somebody who can tell me what it my top-up situation please ?

(I posted the same thing on another topics but it was rather a reply to another member directly, so I repost this message here)

Auto top up - does it account for credits?

Pumama — Wed, 05 Jun 2024 01:10:53 GMT

Hi I just joined 2 months ago, and have referral credits starting soon. Will the auto top up payments account for credits on my account? For instance, instead of charging my credit card $20 on the billing date, will it charge $5 less so $15?
