Getting your cash back

How it's paid
Not published by Public Bank Public Bank does not publish how or when it credits the cash back. It says only that cash back on the principal and supplementary cards is paid out together.
Which month counts
Your monthly statement cycle The Visa and the Mastercard each have their own RM20 cap per monthly statement cycle. Public Bank does not say whether a purchase counts by the date you made it or the date it posts.
When you lose it
Card cancelled, suspended or restricted by the bank If the bank cancels, suspends or restricts the card, for example after missed payments, the cardmember agreement says all card benefits are cancelled or suspended at once. Public Bank has no rule written for the cash back itself.
