Wait for your first monthly statement la.. You'll get the code there.

*hiding beside a corner and cry*

Ok, thanks for the help guys Might come again if I encounter any problems

I start from zero too on debit card and Paypal. No worries k?

Yes. You can. Just follow the instructions on screen.


This is now possible since like a few months ago. Minimum amount you can transfer into your Malaysian bank account is RM40 and a minimal service charge apply per transfer (RM3). No service charge if you transfer at least RM400 or more in one transaction.

I've verified my paypal with Public Bank's D2D debit card and am now wondering where to get my confirmation code for Paypal? Do I have to wait for the statement to arrive at my home?

Maybe you can check your online banking.

Checked already, but perhaps it's New Year today, so the system has not been updated yet.

If my memory serves me correctly, it takes a few days before it appears in your PBB e-Banking.

i also used visa electron to verify my paypal account and in my case public bank send me a pnc letter about the transaction with the confirmation code so i don't need to wait for the statement to verify mine ^^

Pump Petrol will take a min deposit from the card?

If you swipe it at the petrol kiosk, then yes. RM200 will be hold.

Thanks for the advise, will check with pbebank after Monday

hw long will the PB D2D cash back rebate last?

The 0.3% and 0.8% cash back is a permanent feature of Public Bank Day2Day VISA Debit Card.

if its the visa electron debit card, does it has the same cash back as well?
does it auto cash debate on the spot or monthly?

hey miles, i'm a student and currently i have a CIMB acc only. i would like to apply for a debit card. what bank and card is the most suitable for me?

i might be paying anything ranging from below RM100 (e.g. for discounted games on Steam, some of them are even below 10 USD!) or maybe thousands (e.g. helping a friend buy a limited-time deal for a laptop on Dell website since he doesnt have any CC or DC).

best if the card has no yearly commitment fee though. sometimes i might be short of money. well, u know, student life. hehe.

For zero annual fee. I think your best option will be MBB Visa Debit card. You will need to open a free basic saving account for that. If your monthly purchasing of grocery/petrol is very high, you can even consider PBB D2D Visa Debit which offer cash rebates but with RM12 annual fee.

I'm not sure about CIMB debit card though. Perhaps someone here can explain to you. Cheers~

There is a new Manchester United Debit Card issued.

Interesting black card design with Manchester United logo in the middle minus PBB's logo.

Check it out at your nearest PBB Branch.

It is either Maybank Cherry VISA debit card or Public Bank Day2Day VISA debit card. If you are going to spend a lot then PBB D2D VISA is more suitable for you.


Maybank Cherry VISA debit card is the only card with no annual fee. But mind you that the reward system sucks big time ! Public Bank Day2Day VISA debit has a much better cash back system.

If you are driving and pump your own fuel and do groceries shopping yourself, the PBB D2D VISA is very suitable for you. The RM12 annual can be easily covered.


Do not open a Basic Savings Account with Maybank. Maybank's Kawanku Savings Account is much better. Just insist that you do not want to pay annual fee for the ATM/VISA debit card as you are now allowed to either choose to pay RM8/pa for unlimited withdrawals or pay nothing and get 4 FREE** withdrawals a month.

**From the 5th withdrawal onwards in a month, RM0.50 will be charged per withdrawal. If the 5th, 6th withdrawal and so on made when your account is no less than RM5,000, no penalty will be charged.

im currently having the public islamic saving account, is it true that if i want to apply foy PBd2d debit card i have to open a normal saving account? Can't i use my current saving account to apply for the card, as i know the amount use using debit card will directly debited from my saving account but why i need to open another saving account because both is public bank saving account, im so confused
