BSN Matrix Debit Card is Useless?

Filed in: Life Log, Malaysia — June 16th, 2006

A year ago, I received my Public Bank Visa Electron debit card. The debit card is useful. I have already done many online shopping using the card.

bsn matrix cardBeside Public Bank, other Malaysia local banks also offer Visa Electron debit card. However, for some reasons, not all debit cards are accepted by online merchants.

Bank Simpanan National’s BSN Matrix card is one of the example, according to Menj.

The reason I decided to apply for Public Bank’s debit card service was because my BSN Matrix card (although claimed to be a “debit card” complete with Visa Electron logo and the Visa hologram) is pretty much impotent and it is not accepted anywhere online.

[Critical Thoughts]

My two cents

So far, Public Bank’s Visa Electron debit card is known to be the best debit card for online shopping. It seldom gets rejected, even the online merchant accepts Visa credit card only.

    Hmm. I want to apply for PB Debit Card. Do you know that the most payed CEO in Malaysia was PB CEO. Indirectly, that’s why (maybe) it’s DC was accepted by PayPal. Don’t laugh of my idea. One more: BSN is not a commmercial bank (it’s just a saving bank), so accept it as it was>

    I heard that BSN real debit card is the “Matrix-i”, not the normal “Kad Matrix”.
