Hi , I got somethings need to ask . I want to withdraw My Paypal Funds in My Paypal Account

My Name on the Passbook of Bank Account showing : Mr Lim ...

When I insert the name in Paypal , should I enter "Mr" or don't need to insert "Mr " and direct enter My Name ?

No need Mr. Enter directly your name. Sometimes if you mis-arrange the order of your name also can pass through, as long as all info matches

Ok. Thx . I going to enter the information already , hope can received the money this few days

Happened to me once too.

If I'm not mistaken, you must have at least USD50 in your Paypal to make a purchase. Less than that, your CC will be used for the purchase.

The difference in my case is that I use Hong Leong Debit Card to verify my Paypal, instead of CC.

really ? because previous i have purchase stuff via paypal before.. it didn`t prompt for a CC.. just direct pay with paypal. actualy i am trying to get the maxis buy 1 free 1..... but it still prompts me to enter a new CC number.. which I dun want =.=

Hey there, I just called PayPal and the rep told me that they are upgrading the system and notification will be sent through email once it's done. (no estimated time was given) In the mean time, we can only use RHB bank to top up.

Thanks but paypal called me and they said no more topup from other banks FOREVER.

So i went to RHB and make a new saving account with debit card.
I had add up my RHB debit card to my paypal account and they charged MYR 10 for verification and they had payback the amount to my paypal account.
Unfortunately it is in MYR, so i cant do anything with it unless i buy something using MYR.
So my question is:

When i buy something from ebay in USD, they just take the amount from my RHB account bank and convert it to USD right?
So do they charge anything?maybe for conversion or transaction?

Thanks~

Just received an email from them:

"Since October 2010, RHB customers in Malaysia have been able to top-up their PayPal account by transferring funds directly from their RHB Bank account. Following that, we had conducted a pilot phase to explore ways for you to top-up your PayPal account through Maybank, Bank Islam, CIMB Bank, Hong Leong Bank and Public Bank.

The pilot phase has now ended and as such, the “other bank accounts” top-up feature has been turned off with immediate effect. Thank you for your support and feedback."

So they probably will conduct phase 2 or something?

Did you get the card on the same day and got it verified right away? Or how many days did you have to wait? I might have to create an account there as well for the sake of the top up feature.

Yep they will convert it automatically with their own exchange rates or visa/master, no extra charges that I know of. (it will convert your MYR 10 as well)

Got the card at the same day but need 2 days to use the online banking.
To verify with paypal need 1 day.

The flow:
make a new saving account + debit(rm20 per year) > got card immediately >asked them to register online banking > add debit card in paypal > paypal took 1.5 days to verify > after paypal verify, u can shop online using paypal although u can't use rhb online banking yet because they had not yet add your phone number (need to call them after 2 days and it took 1 day to verify)

just made on an online payment a few minutes ago for a Groupon voucher with my Maybank2 mastercard via paypal, wasnt asked for my CC numbers or any other details. smooth hassle-free process.

perhaps this a security feature which is part of your credit card issuing bank's policies? would be beneficial for all forumers if u can share here which credit card u used when u encountered this incidence.

Then I'm also not sure... new to Paypal here.


NOTE: Tried topping up my Paypal using Hong Leong just now, can't do it anymore. Now need to open RHB account pulak... haih...

from my experience regularly using PayPal since 2006, its better to use the foreign currency exchange rates determined by the bank issuing your credit cards. PayPal's forex rates suck cos they are always higher.

Just wondering..if i shop online..between directly using visa debit card (im using RHB debit card) or paypal , which is better actually?
in term of charges, currency conversion and safety or others...
thanks..

i added maybank2 amex. and it already verified.... maybe because it amex...
i guess i try to add master card n see later..

Using paypal link to debit card is the best in terms of charges(No charges for buyer), conversion(follow bank rate) and safety(able to open resolution case).

But actually either way is the same. Since now most e-commerce website provides protection plan for buyers whenever they place order. Unless you're going to those unknown websites then use Paypal is better.

The best safety plan is using credit card linked to Paypal. As they can apply resolution case and in case it fail, able to apply chargeback via bank.

Thanks for the info!

I just contacted Paypal today, I was told that they are working on the top up for other banks feature and its not permanently disabled.

Oh well, have to wait and see. Sigh..

hey guys may i know is there any charges if i transfer money from paypal to debit card? (USD to MYR)

yes. youll be charged

pls help..i bought something from ebay how do i pay the item via maybank debit card which is verified through paypal?how to link the debit card?thx
