if u guys wish to apply the Public Visa Electron in juz few weeks time, it is easy, juz go pbebank.com.my, check on the Card Application form, fill it and mail it, and remember to send email to the pbebank and inform them u already post your application, they will send a feedback to you, the most convinient way to reload the card will be thorugh online banking but before that u muz go to any public bank to register the online banking, after u receive the card, remember go to the public bank again to register the debit card recharge throught online banking, this card can be use as a atm card too but they will send u the pin about 7 to 10 days

Have you purchased anything successfully from Amazon.com using the PB visa since you are saying it? Or just your imagination that you have never even tried before?

Why make so difficult with debit card, just apply Tunemoney.com VISA debit card and verify with PayPal. You can do online shopping and also withdraw your money at PayPal to Tunemoney VISA card.

Valid until 2013

Jeff,

Here are a couple of tips with PB Debit Card.

1. RM25 is the minimum to open the account and keep the account open.
2. PayPal verifies your PB Debit card by charging the card approximately U$1. This means that if you have only RM25, the minimum to keep the account open, PayPal can’t verify your card. Put at least RM35 into the card.
3. If possible, you should have a current account with Public Bank. The reason is to transfer the money out of the PB Debit card. The money is traceable if the card is lost, but it is a hassle.
4. try to do all your transactions within the Public Bank current account as opposed to the PB Debit card as you have the better audit trail.
5. Just go to the branch and apply. It is faster and cleaner. I always say…better to know the person behind the desk than just a voice on the phone.

Just my two sens.

the last i heard about maybank debit card it doesnt work but when i click on “add a card” page in paypal, there is a statement saying that “Debit cards will be accepted if they have Visa or Mastercard logo” so i do not understand why it doesn’t verify…..

I was replied by other blogger that there is a different between linking your account for purchases and withdrawal. For online purchases, paypal allows Visa and Master Cards deposit, there is a spending limit for unverified paypal.

Noticed Maybank also launching its Debit card - Maybankard Visa Debit. Anyone got this? Looks good to me as I’m also a maybank saving account holder, thus transfering money to this debit card could makes my life easier.

Currently using Tunecard, transfering money online using FPX is quite troublesome. Many times I always facing hang pages when FPX connecting to Gateway. So only reload fund in POS Office. RM2 service charge, and too much hassle to go all the way down to Pos office and queue.

Garfield:
Yes, PB Visa Electron can be used to pay for petrol.
Online purchases depend on if they accept Visa.

Anybody with experience on unconfirmed shipping addresses on eBay?
See my earlier post above #373

Hi,

I got my debit card and topup the card more than RM25, enough for me to apply getresponse. But the thing is, when I tried to submit my application, getresponse decline the card. Try to apply for aweber, decline also.
Got decline so many times even when I try to verify my paypal.
Don’t know what’s the problem.

After getting a card verified, how can one in Malaysia get their shipping address confirmed.
Some sellers on eBay refuses to send to unconfirmed shipping addresses.
My friend is having this problem and soon it will be mine too as I’m getting a PB debit card and Paypal account.
