Go to Maybank and request to change your current Maybank ATM card to the new Maybank VISA debit card. You will need to pay RM12 for the card conversion. But if you do not want to pay for the RM12 conversion fee, go to any Maybank branch to cancel your current ATM card first, then go to another Maybank branch and apply for a new one and make sure you tell them you want the new Maybank VISA debit card. Someone has done this recently and it worked. He didn't have to pay for the card conversion fee.

When you go to apply for the new card, make sure you tell them you do not want to pay any annual fee.


IC > David Lee Ah Beng
Paypal > Name : Ah Beng ; Surname : David Lee


You better email them to change it. It should be the other way around. It is so because Paypal is an American company and Americans have their surname at the back of their name. This is why in Olympic Games, you will always see those Malaysian sportsmen names appear as "Choong Wei Lee" instead of "Lee Choong Wei".


Go into any Public Bank branch and apply for online banking for your debit card. You should be able to see the code in the transaction history page.

Prob is I wanna use my Paypal now.
Any method to get my statement faster?

Public Bank user please help!

You can check it through online transaction history thru online banking or call their customer service hotline.

Paypal do not encourage you to call your bank for the code AFAIK

i'm using PB MU Debit card.. and i got the code by calling the Customer service. Pls try yourself.

did they really say that?.....i do that most of the time.....3 days too long for me to wait

i'm using maybank visa debit card to make 2 payments through paypal and i was charged USD1 for each transaction by maybank. is this correct ?

all the other pre authorization charges were reverse except the USD 1 charges.

also weird coz USD 1 was charged as RM 1.02 on local currency?


anybody?

Guys, I have a question.... I know now we can withdraw Paypal funds to our Maybank acc. But is it possible to purchase paypal funds with our Maybank account?

Aih, I'm in need of funds and now LYN dun let ppl sell paypal anymore

strange it should be just USD1.

If you mean you want to transfer some money into your PayPal account, then the answer is no.

Hi guys,

I'm in dilemma and totally confused..

How do i transfer my USD funds to my Maybank account? I don't have any credit card or debit card, i manage to link my Maybank account to Paypal but now i'm wondering whether Paypal will allow me to transfer USD - RM - Maybank account. Paypal will convert currency for me? Any ideas? I'm waiting for some funds to come in, and my client is from the States. This is my 1st time using Paypal..

Would it be easier if i convert my ATM card to Debit card? If i use Debit card, i'm able to withdraw easily? USD-RM-Debit card.

Will i have issue with my name? I'm Muslim, we have "bin", from what i can see on my Paypal account is only my name; without "bin(father's name)". Will Maybank recognize it as full name? Or i have to request to change my name?

Thanks in advance guys.

I'm not sure if this is the right place to ask this question, if i'm wrong, please inform me, thanks,


I got a question about using Credit card or Debit card to make online purchase via PayPal,
about the charges,

I'm using a EON Bank Master debit card, I linked my card to Paypal, and use Paypal to purchase online,



an example, I made a purchase USD 5.00 with 3.26 exchange rate to RM,

5.00 x 3.26 = 16.30

I got RM 16.30 deducted from my bank account,

02/04/10 EDEBIT PURCHASE-SA (ATM) -RM16.30

then 1-2 days later,

04/04/10 EDEBIT PURC CANCL-SA (ATM) +RM16.30
04/04/10 EDEBIT PURCHASE-SA (ATM) -RM16.56

I got my RM 16.30 back and deduct again RM 16.56, and this is the final charge of my USD 5 purchase,

This is the same to all the purchase I made via paypal, but I can't get a right % or a way to count it right,
different exchange rate purchase, different extra % charge, just don't get it,

I'd like to know how to count this? how does it actually charge me. Anyone know?

1 more example,

USD29.99 exchange rate when purchase = 3.3024

16/03/10 EDEBIT PURCHASE-SA (ATM) -RM99.04
18/03/10 EDEBIT PURC CANCL-SA (ATM) +RM99.04
18/03/10 EDEBIT PURCHASE-SA (ATM) -RM101.47


thanks

Actually that's just a standard procedure when you use credit card (in your case debit card) to make any purchase. Highlighted in red above is called pre-authorization.



Similar to the example above, when you charge something to your debit card, the amount will be deducted from your bank balance [16/03/10 EDEBIT PURCHASE-SA (ATM) -RM99.04]. When the merchant actually submitted the transaction to collect funds from the bank, your pre-auth will be refunded [18/03/10 EDEBIT PURC CANCL-SA (ATM) +RM99.04] and the ACTUAL amount will be deducted from your bank account that your debit card is linked to [18/03/10 EDEBIT PURCHASE-SA (ATM) -RM101.47].

The 2 different amounts is due to different currency exchange rate (which you should know fluctuate every day) when the time pre-auth was charged and when the actual amount was charged.

In credit card you don't see this because the pre-auth is deducted from the credit limit, hence not reflected in transaction statements. Only the actual charge will be posted to the credit card statement. Which is why, if you have a credit card, the transaction posting date is more often than not a few days later than the actual transaction date.

Hey peeps, I have added a credit card to my paypal account but I didn't verify it (and don't plan to) because of the USD 2.95 charges that will be imposed on my card for verification purposes. See below:

Sure, it will be refunded but not to my credit card account. It will be refunded to my Paypal account, which I will never have any use for it since I don't keep funds in my Paypal account (what can I buy with a mere USD 2.95?). I'll only pay using my CC attached to Paypal.

So my question is, can I still purchase online using an unverified Paypal account that has my CC linked to it?

I'm new on paypal, just want to know is it the paypal will link to normal saving account (ATM ) or must be credit card / debit account ?

Must be linked to your credit/debit card.. They still did'nt enable us to link to our local bank account

I though already can direct link to our local bank account already. Just see those pp setting on local bank account for withdraw money from paypal, so I feel like already can link for payment directly from bank .
