Is it ok that I choose not to change my OCBC ATM card to a OCBC debit card, as I do not want to pay RM 8.48 annual fee? Or, does OCBC offer basic saving account without annual fee?

Banks to Offer Basic Savings Account since 2005
From Bank Negara

OCBC Basic Savings Account

Yes, I currently have this Easi-Save saving account.

Still, the debit card annual fee will be imposed from the second year onwards. Is there any way to prevent the debit card annual fee from being incurred from the second year onwards?

I afraid that OCBC will forcefully deactivate the OCBC ATM cards next year.

open/convert to a bsa.

or cancel the card if you don't really need it.

Hi, was curious about the China union pay debit card.
I saw for example, PB one have mydebit features, let say I want to use CUP card in Malaysia, is that the transaction based on RM? AFAIK, the CUP are based on dual currency which is in RM and CNY.

Secondly, is possible to use CUP card in taobao? As they can accept CUP card if I'm not mistaken

Hi
I am an European national, often traveling to Malaysia to enjoy life there during my holidays.
I am going to be there 2 months July to August and I wish to know if anyone knows of any bank or financial institution offering a PREPAID debit card Visa or Mastercard. As bank wouldn't let me open an account, and I don't want to go around with cash the whole time.
Not to mention is not wise to withdraw by my foreign CC/DC due to the silly exchange rates and fees...
Any hint?

RHB Prepaid Card

Maybank Prepaid Card

Thank you very much
Maybank cards seems to be out of stock though
I can't find on RHB website how long it takes to have their card in hand, any idea about it?

I am not sure on how long will it take to have the card in hand but since prepaid cards in Malaysia do not require your name to be embossed on the card then I think it will be issued to you right after going through the application/ documentation process. That's my guess, I maybe wrong because I never used prepaid cards cause it's too expensive for me.

Maybank Prepaid Card available for sale at www.superbuy.my

Thank you @moonsatelite, I will check with RHB once I will arrive there
@byron: yes I tried to purchase the card through Superbuy, but though it's shown that card is in stock, when I put it in my cart, I see this:

I don't think you should buy the prepaid card from the Superbuy website, I feel it's suspicious because if you try to own a prepaid card you will need to have your identity verified by the bank and since superbuy isn't a bank you might be buying a non usable card. If I were you I buy it through Maybank themselves by walking to any Maybank branches to ensure usability of the card.

Thank you very much for your great help!
As soon as I will be there I will try my chances at RHB and Maybank HQ
Really appreciated!
