@john: the paypal account does not show your PB acc balance. PayPal will deduct your PB acc balance when you have not enough fund in PayPal account for purchasing an item.

Hi,
about The PB Debit Card, I only applied for card only, not with the PB account bank since I know that we still can verify paypal with the card only without the account bank.

But my question is, I just wanted to confirm this. I don’t have any Paypal money, but I wanted to spend the money from the PB debit card through Paypal. Will Paypal automatically reduce it from the card? Do we need to have PB account bank?

Is there a restriction/limitation when spending the money from the debit card through Paypal?

@Shahril: you can transfer money to your Visa Electron account through Public Bank ATM (cash deposit machine).

@Jen Hau: the “Verified By Visa” and “MasterCard SecureCode” are used to further enhance the security of online payment. They are used online only. However, not all online merchant apply the security.

For all Debit Cards a single PIN is issued for all verification purposes. I have a VISA Electron card too with one PIN.

Isn’t it faster to call the issuer for a confirmation?

I see. So what is the use for the PIN that we fill during verifying our debit card at this website http://www.pbebank.com/en/en_content/personal/cards/vbvmc.html ?

@Jen Hau: yes, if the shop accept VISA Electron card then you can swipe the PB VISA Electron card like a credit card and make the payment.

You will receive the PIN of the VISA Electron card in a separate letter. The PIN is needed when you use the VISA Electron card at ATM. It is not the same PIN as your Public ATM card.

Hello, i would like to know, can we swipe the PB electron card, just like when we swipe the credit card at shopping mall ?

I had received the card today, and it said that the PIN will be sent seperately with the card. So, if i verify the card at the public bank website, is it the PIN that i fill in during the verification is the PIN for my ATM ??

jhuan,

PayPal does not accept Maybank Debit Card at the moment. I’m using TuneMoney Debit Card to transfer funds from my PayPal account within 2-3 days.

One can apply for this and that by submitting forms online – fast and convenience – but there is no guarantee that the card, etc. would be issued fast since the issuers are still working in “you-wait-la” environment.
