Well, First one this is an islamic account if you care.

-eSaver 7% rebate only end this December but this one end 30th June 2009.
-5% cash rebate on hypermarket, eSaver do not have this - also end 30th June 2009.
-better interest/dividend tier.
-this is current account with checkbook facility while eSaver is saving account.

Well that all I know. I just open the account 2 weeks ago a few days after its launching.

ONLY can open at TTDI branch.

Look at my attach picture. That pamplet was taken at SCB. It should be real. The SCB officer also told me the same. Also they give you free gift if you deposit 50K and above.

Just apply another one. I apply this card less than 1 week after I apply eSaver card.

You are right the teller are super slow. It take me almost 1/2 hour for me just to collect my cheque book.

2.5k is the minimum for account opening. But to avoid service charge need to maintain at least 1k.

esaver debit card, you can choose to have name on it or not. No name they give the card on the spot but with name print it may take 2 weeks.

Yup, only at TTDI branch. Muslim or non-Muslim can apply for the account.

To SCB e$aver Debit Card user,

Anyone received your Nov Petrol rebate yet?

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.

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

Yes, the card come with printed name.

For a current account, I think not that expensive as it offer very high dividend good cash rebate. I notice some other bank even ask you to maintain RM3k for current account or they will charge you RM10 per six month.

Yeah, I encounter the same problem at Watson. They are also using Maybank Yellow Terminal. I call the customer service, they say it must be the merchant problem. I think only this particular yellow terminal is the problem as a few days back I use it at Jusco with no problem. This Jusco also using Maybank terminal but not the yellow one. The staff at Jusco tell me that they charge my card using the credit card menu. So no need to enter PIN number.

Before I also use it at Giant & Parkson also no problem.

Maybe the yellow terminal only work for Maybank debit card.

Finally received my 7% cash rebate for petrol purchase for Nov08 through my e$aver debit card.

Anyone know if there is more good cash rebate offer this year for this card or else this card will be abandoned, as the Saadiq Debit card have all the good cash rebate until june 09.

I will be waiting for your update.

I call CS when the problem happen but they take >10min to answer me. At that time I already cancel my purchase.

Yes it does not show on their website. It is written on a flyer which I take from their branch. It offer 7% cash rebate on petrol & 5% cash rebate on purchase on Hypermarket including Giant, Tesco, Carrefour, Parkson, Watson, Jusco & The Store. Their dividend also high compare with normal saving account, as good as one month FD.

Never mind, take your time. Update us when you have the information.

Now I think it seem clear that if the merchant use maybank yellow terminal, the transaction prone to fail.

RHB is launching a new Tesco-RHB Debit card. They offer 5x club points on last weekend of the month & 2x club point on other day when purchase at Tesco. Also 1x club points everywhere else
