Exchange Rate - Part 2

[Toopidduck_]

What I did before reaching tpe:
1) Open and set up a trust bank saving account via app

2) as I already had a Trust CC, I would need to go to the Trust app and pair the CC to the Trust Bank saving account upon saving account approval, this is important if not you will incur cash advance fee. At the same time set the up PIN number as well

3) Top up monies via fast or paynow to the Trust Bank saving account

4) go to BOT ATM, and withdraw monies via saving account option, max twd20k per transaction, can reque and withdraw again!

based on naxchua post, no need to do pairing if you are withdrawing from ATM... I think the screenshot from Trust Bank...

Withdrawing from ATM, no need to do pairing...

Only do pairing if you want your CC to deduct from your savings account on terminal... meaning make ur CC become a DC... refer to below screenshot for explanation... hope it's clear...

Yes correct.
Do remember to enable your card for overseas withdrawal.
I tried multiple times at atm and wondering why can’t. Lucky the app prompted me to enable it.
Today rate is 22.66 at bank of Taiwan atm

Also remember to set atm pin in trust app.

I assumed the login pin = auto atm pin.

Did like so 4 times in Taoyuan Airport. Got scared as even if there is error and rejected, u will get receipt (it does say wrong pin in one of the lines)

The error pin msg will only appear for 2 secs on screen. So I thot my withdrawal was successful but faulty machine as no money come out lol.

All was good until I asked the bank of Taiwan money changer staff (the atm was beside it) then she said no deduction due to error lol. Set the atm pin in app and 22.66 exchange rate lol

Nbz, last used youtrip card in Sep.
Just realised it expired in Nov.
But youtrip didn't automatically send new card just like other Mastercard.
And we've to request them to send.
Damn lousy service.

Now I'm unable to receive new card in time for my coming trip on Wed.
