Don't worry. All my previous mails from other SG banks/related agency also came one by one. laugh.gif doh.gif That person displayed out all the mails you will receive in due time.

Btw, I also didn't receive everything from Maybank yet tongue.gif

Next you will ask me is how long to wait right? tongue.gif
Ans: Usually one letter per week. doh.gif

Really don't know what wrong with SG banks. Why do they like to send one by one and using normal post. Use DHL la. doh.gif

Local post not as secured as DHL. Look at Malaysian banks. All credit card are sent via DHL/courier.

that is why they send the mails separately. with just one of the many mails, nothing one can do. btw, not all credit card are sent by courier. i got one with normal post, with the credit card and booklet almost fell off a half torn envelope.

Agree with that. POS laju delivery boys simply deliver the items. Sometimes even to the wrong person, especially when that person is not around. doh.gif

I received the letters one by one. The reason I made the list is that you can check your items with mine. If there is anything missing, you need to inform Maybank Singapore.

Within a month or so, you should receive all items and can activate online banking. Did you submit a bank draft worth SGD 500, with your application forms? For me, I did not submit any bank draft, and transferred the required SGD 500 from my other Singapore saving account to my iSavvy account, after my online banking access was activated.

My concern is that after a month, if you still cannot activate your online banking, your saving account may be closed, due to zero balance. If you feel that the delay is too long, you should inform Maybank Singapore.

Another way to activate online banking is through your debit card, as reported by lamode.

QUOTE(lamode @ Mar 10 2017, 06:58 PM)
for those don't want to wait the PIN mailer for Maybank SG online registration, there is an alternative if you got all other docs and debit card.

1. Active debit card
2. register online banking @ www.maybank2u.com.sg, select debit card and pin.
3. use the debit card number and the debit card pin mailer
4. enjoy! smile.gif
