I went to the Maybank at PJ Old Town to make a bank draft but got rejected.

The purpose for the bank draft is to pay 3% booking fee for buying subsale house and it is over 10K.

That Malay aunty sat behind counter (maybe she's the boss la)rejected my request saying that I need to show them proof of the house price, amount of booking price and real estate agency details.

I was shocked because previously CIMB did not request any proof when I requested for a bank draft and it went smoothly. They only requested company name to be transferred and check if you have enough money, that's it.

Maybank staff keep saying that I want to make bankers check but I told them I want to make bank draft.

To all Sifus,

1) are bankers check and bank draft the same?
2) do I really need to show proof of house price, booking amount and real estate agency details.
3) if yes, how do I get that because it is a subsale house and don't have any fancy pamphlet like new house always got.
4) can someone punch that aunty in her face because she annoyed me too much.

thank you in advance

Hi all. I have bank draf from maybank for buying house. Now i want to cancel. But the house developer refuse to give back bank draf to me keep saying already lose it. Can i still refund my bank draft?

How about standard chartered

Yes and yes. You can buy a bank draft in any major currency.

If it's not yet banked in I think you can, need to talk to the bank though.

Why not just go to CIMB?

May i know the updates? Because I'm going to buy bank draft also to pay 7% deposit for buying subsale house and it is over 30K.
For 3% booking fee, I'm using online bank transfer which is also over 10k

I want to do a bank cheque at a public bank branch. Do I need to bring my bank book ?

hi all, i need to do the banker's draft for tender bond... do i need to bring any document for application. thank you

Can now buy the draft at any bank by Instant transfer?

what if you lose the bank draft...lost....do you lose your money as well ?

Instant transfer to which account if you do not have any banking account with that bank?
I dont think is possible. You need to have a banking account with that bank only able to do bank draft with that bank.

Nope. Just like normal cheque. Only the person / name stated on the cheque can actually cash out the money. You dont have to worry unless the cheque is bearing a very general name.
You can declare lost at the same branch you do the cheque. Penalty is RM20.

If you return a banker cheque unusued, the cost is RM2.
For comparison purpose.

Hmm. Seems like different from what i did last year.

I did a Rm100k bank draft and there's Rm5 charges in Maybank.

Added : Sorry jst saw your post is 2010 LOL
