No, its not a scam. Its their so called TELE-MARKETING

they hav join venture with Bank & CC company to get ur details, n they do their promotion based on ur details/background provided by the respective bank.

I've encounter numerous tele-marketing before be it Insurance, CC, trust fund, etc2.. But i juz turn them down, as for me., as long there's no black & white or T&C or rules&rulegations to be read/understand, I don't give them a single chance to take advantage on me.

I had the same call from Public Bank.. the best part is that the call came just a day after I opened an account there... it all sounds promising until they mentioned the monthly deduction part... then I reject... I have to admit they do sound convincing.. lucky also my hp battery died tongue.gif

Hm.. My friend told me he did received a call like this and unfortunately he did says yes or maybe something like that, because he doesn't know much about this thing.

Is there anyway to canceled this agreement/deal? the phone lady says this deal don't have a contract, which mean can be canceled right?

Just want to share my experrience. i took my PA through etiqa@mbb when 1 of tele-marketeers called me last time. But only I clarify, by asking them to send my few copy of brochure & T&C via fax. After read & go through only only i took it. Monthly payment through my mbb account. Policy I received after 3-4 weeks. Less hassle & I'm covered. tongue.gif

but...must be careful for scam also...

I have similar cases, but from public bank, promoting new PA. I check from public bank website, there's no such offer given. I chat with telemarketer till i say "NO"
