O.k, i’ve make my decision.
Which is i just narrow it down to this 2 debit card. PB visa electron and EON combi. Since i already have PB savings account i also think that PB visa electron is the best option. But i want to know, how about hotel reservation. When it says CREDIT CARD, can i use my PB visa electron to make the reservation.??

Those with info. pls reply ASAP. Thank you.
Love your blog LiewCF.

Alex,

The Standard Chart DebitCard does not charge any fee but you have to pay 1 time activation fee RM10. Also you need to open an account call E-Saver Account to link with the DebitCard. Minimum amount to open the account is RM500 I think. But this account give more interest than any savings account from other bank in Malaysia. Thats what i knew dude

@n|ck: You can try Tune Money Visa Debit Card, one of the best option so far for online purchases and paypal withdrawal (check out my review).

So far, there are mentioned thumb up feedback from user of this card.

Vincent,

The card is launched since the opening of the Pavilion shopping centre. The Pay Pass I used it at KFC and no problem at all. Yes, I collected the card by myself at the EON Bank Pavilion Branch. I got it at the same day I applied but have to wait 2 hours. About the Combi card, im not sure, sorry hehehehe

Vincent, I applied for the Combi card.. They say the cards are not available yet but u can still apply for it. Once the card is done, they’ll call u for collection at the branch. Can’t wait for it!

Vincent — Tue, 05 Feb 2008 01:29:26 +0000

How long for the card to be issued? Have you try the pay pass? Collection of card is at the branch itself?

I am also checking if the Combi Debit Mastercard is available or delayed again. Talk to the CS that the card is not ready. If got Combi, I dun hv to own another account lah.

Hi Ianflojam & Vincent,

As for me, now im holding the Pavilion Debit Mastercard and I get from the EON Bank at the Pavilion ( Bkt Bintang ) on December 07. There is no need to open an saving or current account in order to have this card. This card has his own account ( call it card account ) and you have to bank in cash into the account in order to use the card. Once you have transactions, they will automatically deduct from your card account. Kind of like prepaid Mastercard la. I also wonder as Vincent said the card is not available and launch is been delayed. I will check it out and let you guys know later
