Is it safe to put all your money to the bank account which is linked to a debit card nowadays? Or it is safer too put aside a sum of money for the card?

Thanks for the info

I also have have a BoA debit visa card, if I use the card to withdraw $ from the ATM in malaysia, I will be limited to RM 1,500 withdrawal each time rite?

Anyway to withdraw higher larger amount of $, since I am being charged USD 5 per withdrawal  + 1% conversion fees or something like that ((if I am not mistaken)

Many thanks for the info, Miles
Do you mind sharing the exchange rate that you get when you are doing the withdrawal over the ATM?

I did a withdrawal from Paypal to my bank account in MY, the paypal exchange rate is 3.29, while the "street" rate (if I remember correctly) was about 3.38 at that time.

Thanks GHz.

How can I tell whether the ATM can dispense 3,000 or not?

If I am not mistaken, if the ATM cannot dispense 3k, and  I decided to cancel the transaction, I will be charged USD 5 (by BoA) also rite?

I have to start looking at getting $ from ATM, as paypal now do not allow, adding funds from US bank account to Paypal (registered in MY)

balance inquiry definitely charge USD5
but i think if you do not enquire on balance and press cancel before withdrawing, you shud not be charge
do come back and update us

Tried that on ATM that won't dispense RM 3K, was not charged, but I can't withdraw 1.5k also. So I don't think it will apply.

Coz, apparently, when I cancelled my BoA checking account, the check card is also cancelled

.. SIGH ..

i have both savings & checking.

Cancelled the checking only ... still have savings

I have apply RHB cash connect visa debit card but can't verify by paypal

Most likely the card is blocked for Paypal, just like Maybank Cherry VISA debit card when it was introduced last year. Maybank Cherry VISA debit card can't be used on Paypal until about 3 weeks after Public Bank introduced the Day2Day VISA debit card in May this year.

If anyone of you guys have applied RHB cash connect Visa Debit Card, sorry you guys can't use on paypal. here the email i
received from their cards and unsecured business division.

Can somemore please tell me how to check MBB debit card treat points? I a regular dc user, started using every since mbb launch their cherry dc, till now i still got no idea how to search for the treat points i have accumulate.

GHz,

Do you know if the UOB Bank debit Mastercard can be used online ? Such as at www.malaysiaairlines.com.my/airasia.com/genting.com.my etc ? UOB Bank has stopped issuing VISA Electron. The existing VISA Electron card users have also been told to go to UOB Bank to replace it with the new debit Mastercard.

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?

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")..

sivapc, any bank that can link to Paypal will do, just refer to the link http://1-million-dollar-blog.com/2009/03/m...und-withdrawal/ by GHz just look for which bank would you prefer and suits your need eg. nearest to your house or charge you lowest annual fee and so on..

May I know when is this started? Because I have tried to link my Maybank DCard to Paypal before I applied for Day2Day Card, it failed.. 

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

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..

I am Dc noob . May i ask , when i shopping ? i buy the item using the Dc the amount of money will be deduct is base on the item price ? or they will charge more and will revised back later . Any tax or charge card for the swipe ?
