Yes, as long as you have a bankard, you are eligible for internet banking

I will try to convert my account to the Basic, or else create a new Basic account.
However, according to the website, seems like the internet banking service is only for Option II, but you confirm even option I has the internet banking service?

and the "(except GIRO)" does that mean GIRO from internet is not provided? can only do in ATM?

sorry for keep asking

yes, confirmed option I has internet banking, I'm using it currently
and GIRO option is available through the internet banking

Thank you very much

unfortunately, i could not convert the RHB account to basic account.
have to open new basic and close this account.

I will open the basic account next week
Closure of current account will need to do after April, since closure of account within 6 month will need to pay rm20

u don't really need to close that account, just cancel that debit card
then open a new basic sa with free atm, apply online banking and both your accounts shud be there, don't need to inform ur hr about changing acc some more

The link I use below showed that Public Bank hv zero annual fee and zero interest rate, is it true??

http://www.moneystreet.com.my/Banking/Debi...ld2=0&balance=1

Zero annual fee ? That only applies to select card types, for instance the ESSO VISA debit card which is totally annual fee free. Some other card needs you to swipe the card x times and annual fee will be automatically waived. PBB Day2Day VISA debit card annual fee is indeed RM8. Not sure if they now issue the PBB D2D VISA to basic savings account though...

The zero interest rate is not true.

My account is statement based, means no passbook. They allow cancel the card without closing the account?

btw,is there any other debit card offered by public bank other than Day2Day which is also link to saving account?

Only Day2Day is been linked to saving account for Public Bank.... Other debit card is statement based account....

edwardccg, that i'm not sure, maybe you can ask them when u open ur new bsa

Guys,I tried purchasing some posters from a US site using my maybank debit card and it turned out that the site does not ship to Malaysia.The amount paid was refunded by the site but why am i being charged again with the same amount by the bank>?

Is it the refund pre-auth amount??

The first one says "PREAUTH SALE" and it has been refunded under "REV PREAUTH"
The second one just says "SALE" and it has not been refunded yet.
I've contacted the seller and according to them,they have already given a refund.So is this the bank's fault?
Thanks

Is the Merchant fault...
PreAuth Sale meaning they hold a certain amount then the bank only charge u back according to the actual exchange rate or amount hence it become Sale
Then Bank refund back the hold amount so it was Rev PreAuth Sale....

I see, thanks for reply


I will try to cancel the card if can

I got another few more question about Public Bank Esso debit card, thanks for help :

1. can it be used in Petron for 1% rebate since Petron already bought over esso? anyone tried?
2. If i apply online, what is estimated arrival of card? and upon received, just call to activate just like CC?
3. If i apply in branch, can it process immediately and give me the card? (I wonder because the name need to printed on the card, right?
4. will the esso debit statement account automatically include in my PBebanking account? (currently i have one online account with my saving account on it)

The merchant said it has already been refunded.it's been more than a week already,does it usually take this long?
Again,thank you for your time

They Usually need 5-10 Business Days(US) to Refund & Credit Back the $$$ to Your Account (I had kena before)

1. Yes.
2. I got my card within 2 weeks and my pin number about a week later.
3. You will still have to wait for them to send you the card even if you apply from a PB branch. My friend applied from a branch while I applied online.
4. No comment since I don't have any account with PB.

Thanks for your reply

I think apply online is more convenient since apply in branch still need to wait for the card.

Is the flow look like this?
1. apply online
2. received card (~2 weeks)
3. contact PBB for card received
4. PIN received (~1 week)
5. Bank in amount to the account
6. Card ready to use
7. Call PBB for adding this account to my current PBB online account

Thanks you for take your time for reading
