Dear Bankers, I was trying to create a paypal account and when I tried to add the my VISA debit card to it, it throws an error saying that your card is invalid. Upon a little research I found that the card I was using was SBI classic debit card and it is valid only for Indian merchants, so I applied for SBI gold card, which according to SBI website, works for International transactions, but, unfortunately this time too, I encountered with the same error. After digging little deep I found that RBI have made it mandatory for all banks to implement an extra security measure by integrating OTP verification and international merchants like Paypal and Skrill do not know how to handle that, but strangely, ICICI bank debit card works every where. So, is there any way through which I could perform international transactions without creating a different account in ICICI.
Any help would be gravely appreciated. Very Best Regards Ajay www.beyondinvisible.in It’s better to light a candle than to curse the darkness.
