this thread should be sticked.....if CC thread can, why can't our thread?

After RM50 "service tax" on CC implementated next year, more ppl will run to debit cards. haha

PB Day2Day VISA is better than PB Visa Electron, cause still there are some merchants who don't accept Visa Electron.

wat about bsn debit card?? is it good?

Thats good to heard that, now debit card can accept in many places

hi, does alot of stores/places/restaurants now accept debit cards? its not that common issit?

Major of the merchant do accept debit card

debit card cannot use to pay installment....so frustrated...

im still new to debit card.

is PBB debit card = ATM card? just like what MBB doing now.

You can use it at all stores displaying VISA and Mastercard logo.


Yes. The Public Bank Day2Day VISA debit card also serves as your ATM card to access your savings/current account over the ATM, just like Maybank Cherry series of debit card. The reward system for PBB D2D VISA debit card is better than Maybank Cherry series of debit card.

possible but your screenshot looks very much like either your friend con you or someone does not understand what is e-ticketing

that is not the line item for e-payment ticketing
this looks more like he used his debit card to buy tickets in gsc pavilion

e-payment, mine usualy appears like the below (from my cc statement)
26-09 GOLDEN SCREEN CINEMAS SELANGOR MY RM 23.00

I'm in love with my PBVE debit card..!
Highly useful for online shopping. Congrats on having version 2..

u meant he purchase ticket thru counter by card, not online purchase by card.

PBVE need any requirements to apply? at least 18 years old with address (no PO box)?

Yes. Exactly what he/she was trying to say.


As long as you are at least 12 years old you are qualified for all range of Public Bank debit cards. However, please note that for PBVE you must keep RM25 of deposit inside the account at all time. As for Public Bank Day2Day VISA debit card, the minimum deposit must be kept inside the account is only RM1 at all time.

which website it able to use? does the web mentioned it can use debit card?

feeling the CC has more points & rewards compare to DC. anyway, i will cancel all my CC & keep 1 only to avoid paying RM50 to gov for them to masuk their bloody pockets, stupid leader made stupid decision on budget 2010.

I have few cards for diff promotion: Citibank Shell card to get rebate when pump petrol, Citibank Giant card to get rebate when shop in Giant, RHB Tesco card to get rebate when shop in Tesco, IKEA card to get free coffee when go to the curve etc.

Stupid leaders of malaysia, I will know who to vote in next election! Damn!

that is stil too early to make desicion whether to cancel or not the cc.
banks side will definitly doing some 'action', give them some times , i believe they on process of meeting & think out some 'strategy'.
who knows when gov take 50, but banks give anothers kind of rebate that worth 50?
who knows when gov take 50, banks side give more benifits of card?

I already have this Public Bank VISA Electron. Should I cancel it and get Public Bank Day2Day VISA debit instead? Seems more easy to use. Lazy have to go to the PB bank to reload the PBVE

BTW, the intention to incur RM50 is to control ppl dun sign so many cards & hutang a lot but if those who used to hutang CC payment, they already owed banks few thousand or more, so RM50 to them is nothing, they dun care at all. BUt for ppl like me who used CC for saving money, I dun owed CC coz I settle every months, so RM50 to me is big money. 1 card RM50, i have 6 cards total RM300 per year for the tax...I hope what u said will come true, i really hope that...but chances is slim lo

www.singaporeairlines.com
www.cathaypacific.com

and many more. As long as they have the VISA or Mastercard displayed then it means your debit cards are accepted.


If you use for online transaction a lot then PBVE is actually a better card as the exposure is not as great as PBB D2D VISA. PBB D2D VISA is directly linked to your savings/current account whereas PBVE is not. You can apply for PBB e-banking and transfer the money to your PBVE online from your savings/current account whenever you need it. This way you won't have to go to PBB to reload your PBVE anymore.

Public Bank VISA Electron is a good card i can say, u can review previous Debit Card V1 for information.
since it doesn not linked to saving/current account, i plan to apply one, but not now, because i believe bank's customer service counter are full or people now, they going to cancel credit card.
1 year RM24 lower than cc RM50, and lower than nexG prepaid mastercard 1 month RM3.

thanks for information.
