1. very elusive on how to monetise the "free" charges.

2. endgame is to give online loan @ 15% interest.

3. BP should be worth between USD 1 - 2 billion in 3 yrs' time.

short answer: just back from RHB branch and got back my card.

First the RHB CS told me whatever card held in ATM cannot be returned and will be send to card issuer, so I need to contact card issuer myself.
I asked her, what if it is oversea card? are you going to send back as well? then she asked me to look for officer in charge of ATM behind teller counters.

at first the officer told me the same, asked me the card got my name or not, if told her no, then she said it's probably due to MEPS failed to verify my name, and the card is blocked (this is not true, BP does not use MEPS Network at all, its going though Mastercard Network instead)  doh.gif  hence ATM retained the card, and can't they just can't return me the card as they won't be able to verify owner of card, then I told her I know the last 4 digit of card and you have CCTV, your ATM took my card without my permission, why should I pay for card replacement fees?  rclxub.gif

Then she went to open the ATM for the card, and called BP to verify ownership, in turn the BP called me back in few mins to do verification before releasing info to RHB officer (and she asked BP if the card is blocked or active! lol!!!). very well done for prompt action from BP CS, sorry I didn't get his name  rclxms.gif

Finally I got my card after RHB verify IC with thumbprint and signed for acknowledgment.

If all failed, perhaps need to "remind" them feedback to HQ/BNM.
TGIF all!

PS. I confirmed the card is usable as I made a withdrawal from CIMB some mins ago.
BigPayJonathan  bravo to BP CS this time

Thanks for the update.

1. Why can't BP include our name on the card?

2. Do take a pic of the front of the card, just in case...

3. the MC logo on the BP card is a pale shadow of the real thing... see pic

mc logo, there's no "real thing".

mastercard did rebranding 2yrs ago. no more "stripes", just flat design.
QUOTE(lamode @ Nov 30 2018, 11:46 AM)
3. its both the "real thing", just new version i guess.
sorry, my bad.

yes, no name embossed onto prepaid card unlike credit card. thot BP would want to make theirs a standout amongst prepaid cards with embossed name... smile.gif

Mate, which branch?
the ones that I tried are at Mydin & Taipan USJ 9 - I think all their ATM's can dispensed RM3K provided that there are sufficient RM100 notes in the ATM's.

cheers smile.gif

The paypass function of the card doesn't seem to work at Sushi Mentai just now.

Had to go the traditional way... key in the password...

Anyone have problems with the paypass feature?

The Paypass feature is working just fine, it's either the terminal problem or you didn't pay using PIN before because you need to pay using PIN once when you got your card to enable the Paypass feature (not sure when you got your card though).

you're right, bro. biggrin.gif

my 1st time using the card which i got on Nov 28. will try the paypass again.

thanks for the reply.

cheers... thumbsup.gif

Foreigners definitely can apply.. It says "All Residents" and not "All Malaysians"... As a Wakandian, I'm proof of such.. biggrin.gif  I've resided here long enough though..

Thanks for the info.

However

1. must the topup be from a M'sian bank/card,

2. the sim card be from a M'sian telco, &

3. the address to send the physical card be in M'sia too?

2. Yes!
3. Yes!
Thanks for the reply.

Told my friend to ask Air Asia Thai to start a Thai bigpay too. biggrin.gif

Then again, BP may have plans to introduce BP to the rest of the world... hmm.gif

https://ztidev.com/VisitThailandCard/superrich/

not as good as BP...

Card Packaging Fee = 150 baht
Annual Fee = 100 baht

Spending Fee at any merchants = No fee
Foreign Currency Exchange Fee at SuperRich = No fee (only FX rate applied)
Withdrawal Fee at ATM = 3% + fee at ATM provider (about 200 baht)

the best is dont use ATM to withdraw when oversea to avoid extra feees.

that depends on where you're at - when I was in Taiwan 2 weeks ago, & after reading up page. 1 of this chat, I withdrew from an ATM at a Family Mart outlet in Taichung, & only RM10 was charged by BP, & the rate was very good - much better than the money changers' rate!

so do read up page 1 before you embark on your overseas trip.
