Dont think so, I purchase before with debit card, the amount was instantly deduct out from my bank balance. If they cant deduct out, dont think that will work.

Anyway did you try?

You can try get a Maybank Platinum debit card which has 10k limit.

Hey man, what are the requirements for the platinum debit card? Can I upgrade it from the existing one that i have?

Only now manage to call the apple store online, they confirm received the order and it will take 24 hours to process the order prior to shipment.

I guess the whole of today will only count, weekends does not count as working days.
