try maybank.its convenient as most stores/outlets accept it.

but for apple store, if im not mistaken they wont accept debit cards.only credit cards...

maybank can't use for online shopping.so u can forget bout maybank debit card.i think PB Day2Day is still the best choice

i bought stuffs from apple online store before. and NO maybank debit card cannot be used cause it's only meant for physical swipes and can't be used online. so i used PB Visa Electron instead and it works!! But since you are below 18 years old, Public Bank Day2Day ATM/Debit card is the best bet.

tunemoney would be good...

ok.. just go in then register then use?

i just registered for a maybank account and they give me a debit card free. its included with my ATM card. so its kinda a all in one thing.

any benefits?
haha other than the obvious.

i cant verify my paypal account by maybank debit card??? maybank debit card cant shop online? ?? i trying to register Maybank Shop Online but its unsuccesfully???

debit cards are not meant to be used online if i'm not mistaken.
just for cash purchases at shops or supermarkets.

Debit card act as normal credit card, the only different is hutang first or keep first... Debit card can be use to shop online same as credit card unless the bank didn't enable it. That the case for Maybank debit card.

A lots of Maybank Debit card user already return the card because they cannot use it online. I have this kind of discussion in other forum as well. Click my link above for summary of debit card... compilation from few forums. (in post #2)

The best so far is Public Bank and TuneMoney.

I own an EON debit card myself... getting for free with some RM inside...

Hi ,

This is really depends on yourself .

I have a MayBank Debit Card . I'm 17 this year .

It do come in handy when you didnt bring any cash go out .

But , as other forumer said , you can't use it for online shoppings etc

And , it can be only used if your account have cash in it . If not , dont apply for it . Apply for credit card instead . Ask your mommy sub one card for you


Thanks ,
Chris



PS : Ignore it if the info i given is false .

i think its quite accurate.

the benefits of debit card is that there is no chance of overspending and getting into debt.

but the disadvantages is that sometimes when u no money, u cant buy something lor (for emergencies and etc).

I just applied the " Maybankard Secure Online Shopping Registration" on maybank2u, after succesfully applied, i registered my debit card to the paypal, and its succesful also, then i check my maybank2u but my maybank2u show me " Pre-Auth Debit Rm 7" , no show me 4 digit numbers, i think need wait 2-3 working days just can see the 4 digit numbers???
