Actually what was I am trying to say was SCB got rebates for petrol & groceries spending. I have checked for MBB debit card and found no similar rebates for petrol & groceries. Correct me if I'm wrong.

agree... and some of them wont accept maybank's card.. dunno why

but the problem with SCB is they dont state the benefits properly... .and btw until now my card has been retained... will go back msia n make noise 2molo

Yeah ... I agree with ya coz SCB did not mention that the rebates will only be credited back to the account on the next statement cycle. Will hold my thoughts until I see it myself next month in my statement.

BTW ... I may have miss your earlier thread ... what exactly happened to your card ?

i have no idea... had a lot of $$$ in my esavers acc... but i withdraw it and leave around a couple of hundred... before that i was in the states so my acc could have been inactive... i withdraw my $$$ by asking them to issue me a cheque btw...

1 day before i leave for sg, i tried depositing a bit of $$$, the stupid machine say sry your card have been retained, they gave me a receipt with reference no. i give them a call from their kiosk no1 pick up which i assume is because after office hours.. the next morning i headed to sg until now.. 3 weeks ago. now debit to use, have to use my states debit with no chip

hey jz a question maybank visa debit atm card, if u withdraw cash at atm from other banks, i.e. pbb, rhb, cimb etc. will it charge the normal rm1 or will charge rm10 by visa??

normal... because they will 1st follow network charges... unless no network then they will withdraw from card company

for debit cards rite nw, if im not mistaken, Standard Chartered Banks debit card is having a 7% rebate for petrol purchases.

that used to be the case for esavers acc debit cards... dont know whether they extended it

now there's a new islamic acc... also got a lot of benefits

I'm not sure about whether the promo going to be extended for esaver account but I'll follow whatever offering they have that gives the best offer.

Simple.

esaver already don't have rebate for fuel
But the islamic have rebate

since they took my card away for esavers... i might as well clsoe that acc down now and apply for islamic banking

Me using :

Maybank Debit Card

Tunecard


That's all. Hassle free.. Just beware of using Maybank Debit card at petrol pump, make sure u have enough fund, coz normally they will hold a minimum RM150 for every transaction. Only will be refunded 1-2days after and deduct your amount sale.

Maybank Visa Debit would be a nice card once online enabled...

But, when will it happen???

it would take a long time though, a lot of frauds will happen. and they need to setup a good IT team to administer the service.

To SCB e$aver Debit Card user,

Anyone received your Nov Petrol rebate yet?

nope... not yet.. i think they stop before the month of nov right?

The 7% cash rebate end 31st Dec 2008, look here,

Normally how long the take to credit the rebate?

I already received SCB Saadiq 5% cash rebate on hypermarket a few days ago.

Minimum deposit is RM2,500 but what is the min amount to maintain?
Can i after i open an account with RM 2500,then withdrawn the RM 2000 ?
Do the card have our name printed on it?

I think there is no minimum but if balance fall below RM1k, they will charge you.

Yes, the card come with printed name.

So expensive $20 fee/year is balance is under RM 1k

Note: A half yearly service fee of RM10 is levied on accounts if the minimum monthly average balance falls below RM 1,000 from 1 January to 30 June and
1 July to 31 December.
