I finally got my VISA Debit Card from Al Rajhi Bank! I chose this bank for two reasons. Firstly, there is a branch near my place, which definitely spells convenience for now and future purposes. Secondly, I did my research on the Net and apparently, this bank is recommended by several reliable bloggers for the purpose of withdrawing PayPal funds into your bank account. In my case, my friend Emila recommended this bank to me.
It was very easy and fast to get this debit card. The whole process took less than 20 minutes and even then, it would have been faster save for the fact that the most of the bank's staff were on leave due to the upcoming holidays. So I had to wait for about 5 minutes before I was attended. Minimum amount to open a savings account is RM200 and all you need to provide is your MyKad. Customer service was fast and efficient; exactly how I like it! Your debit card is given immediately and once you have activated your online banking, you are good to go!
If you're thinking of getting a debit card yourself for the purpose of withdrawing your PayPal funds into your account, this is the bank to choose. Happy weekend everyone!

Hey Marzie, I didn't know that Al-Rajhi did pay pal? When I call them they said they didn't but guess they do now. Congrats on getting it :D

Thanks Nick! I noticed many posts on Al-Rajhi for PPal, and Emila confirmed it too, so happily got one for myself la! :)
Congrats GP.. Now you can enjoy your Paypal money!.. eh RM200 to open savings account. I thought I read online it says only RM20.. wah lucky you told me otherwise I only bring RM20.. so embarassing...heheh
happy to hear this...tht u got a debit card in 20 min.
here in india..it usually takes 15days to get a debit or credit card with u'r name printed & embosed on the card.
for normal cards with out name embosing.it will take a 10 min to get a card but almost 24-48 hrs to get it activated so tht we can use it at ATM!....malaysia is far better......
