sorry if this question had been ask before, can DB card use to pay for installment ?

Thanks

Debit card cannot use for pay installment, only credit card will do.

Just wanna share my experience here about debit card.. the debit card that disappoint me is that Maybank Cherry debit card.. 1st when I applied for that card, I thought it really could be linked to Paypal where the officer in Maybank told me so.. What I had did wrongly was I didn't do research at the 1st..

After that, I tried to look through google search and i found that tunemoney and pb visa electron are both confirmed that can be linked to paypal.. the annual fee of rm24 for pb visa electron is actually the reason why i didnt apply for it.. I go for a tunemoney card which requires rm12 annual fee which is a relevant fee.. now i feel kinda inconvenient whenever i wanna use my paypal because i gotta keep reloading my tunemoney card and always been charged rm0.50 through fpx reload, this is the cheapest way of reloading the card.. and now they had changed the fee system, annual fee rm12 is gone, but rm1.50/month fee came.. =.= so i am going to cancel it very soon..

Few days ago, i went to public bank to buy bank draft, so i saw this MU debit card and day2day debit card brochures.. i asked 3 officers over there.. 2 told me day2day card cant link to paypal.. and 1 told me he dunno what is paypal.. >.< so i decided to apply for MU debit card since the 2 officers said day2day card cant but MU card can link to paypal.. in this case, my MU debit card will be prepared after 2 weeks..

Infact, i was going to open a savings acc at public bank, so i decided to get the day2day card as my atm card because i can withdraw money unlimited times/mth without charging me fee for over withdrawal..When i reached home, i tried my luck to link the day2day card to paypal.. and it successful.. So, now my coming MU debit card is actually useless already..

Sometimes, I just felt that they didnt give us the accurate information and they didnt update themselves as financial institutions.. Just like the officer don't even know what is Paypal.. >.< But anyway, I am satisfied with this day2day card.. unlike the maybank debit card, it can't even use for online purchase.. seems like it has only two functions which are withdraw money and swipe at counters (so call "work like a credit card")..

hi guys~

besides PBB~is there any other debit card which can be linked to paypal? i've tried my RHB...it cant be linked

DO you know that now you can link Maybank Debit Card with Paypal?

just wondering what you guys use paypal mainly for?

Both Public Bank Day2Day VISA Debit Card and Maybank Cherry VISA Debit Card can be linked to Paypal. It wasn't possible to verify the Maybank Cherry VISA Debit Card when they first introduced it in 2008 but when Public Bank came out with the Public Bank Day2Day VISA Debit Card in June 2009, all of a sudden Maybank Cherry VISA Debit Card too, can be verified by Paypal. I guess they are aware of the huge Paypal user base here in Malaysia and afraid Public Bank might steal away all the customers, so they allow the card to be linked to Paypal as it is already a long known fact that all Public Bank range of VISA debit cards can be verified by Paypal.

I think Miles need to update this in the 1st page 1st post for a reference.

is it good?

which bank is the best? planning to apply one next week.

thanks in advance.

just received my MU Mastercard - renewal
new application shud be MU Visa

If I'm not mistaken, Paypal accepts all cards from any banks now.

Maybank activate the feature in July 2009. But remember to activate your card first.

Not really. Some debit card such as from Alliance Bank & Standard Chartered still not.

What do you mean by activate my card? Umm.. as in go to the ATM or do something through the maybank2u?

he meant logon to m2u, and click the MSOS to register

yesterday i use my cherry card at s&j they kept asking me to key in my pin number..i told them just treat it like a visa card ..am i right or wrong? cuz other places i dont need to key in pin and sign like a usual visa..

yes exactly, if you still confuse, check out my blog post here

If you need to key-in PIN number than its use MEPS e-debit network. If no PIN is required than it use VISA network. SO ask the merchant to charge the card as credit card.

i faced this issue before as well.. i just ask them treat it as like a credit card then it works.. because we dont even need to tell them what our card is, because they will be more confused..

My choice now is narrowed down to either maybank visa or public bank electron or day2day. both banks are near my place. and both cards has similar charges. which in terms of service and experience would you recommend. and i need this for paypal too.

Believe the clear winner would be Public Bank.
