Seem like quite a lots of visitor curious how a Malaysian able to withdraw paypal money using local ATM, I can understood that, previously I always think of withdraw by myself without paying any charges to mid-man. I no need to explain on
How Malaysians can withdraw directly from Paypal, because Hong Kiat has blog a very detail post to teach you how to do so. Actually I am learned from him :p
But I did go through some hassle due to my stupid lor..I show some of the note that might help you to process your transaction smoothly.
On Paypal
1) Make sure the name and address in your paypal account is same as the one you register on VMI card (VMI card need your NRIC for registration).
- Fund will refund to your paypal after deducted some charges if anything information doesn’t match in both account.
2) Enrolling your paypal account and get verified with charges US$1.95 to your credit card (payment will be refund to your paypal account once it verified). Must verified using credit card because VMI Bank account are not qualify to verified your paypal account (refer to below).
3) After you added the bank account into paypal, you will received an email from them and asking you to verify your bank account with 2 random amount they has been transfer in.
- But I never received any random payment from them, email them and get below answer =>
The bank you added to PayPal can not be confirmed. It can be used to
withdraw funds. However, it cannot be used to add funds into your PayPal
Account. The addition of this bank account will not qualify you as a Verified member.
4) Transfer Fund to the VMI account – It will be on pending abut 2 day and show transaction completed in the 3rd day. BUT this amount wouldn’t show in your Bank account yet. Bank to Bank need another 1 – 2 days to communicate before credit your bank account.
On VMI Card
1) the birthday date they request for register is based on MM/DD/YYYY format. I make a mistake on this and need to register again.
2) Remember clearly on your access number and ATM pin.
Note : I transfered $300 to bank account at the 1st time have no problem, 2nd time also no problem (Maybe due to small amount), but someone (not sure can expose her name or not
) transfered 700 in the 1st time then received Paypal limited access email immediately. Hot-Screensaver’s blog about his Paypal has Limited Account Access before too. I almost kena tipu, because I also received an Limited Access email But is fraudulent one.
