If you do not have a Current or Savings Account with Maybank but you want a Maybank2U online account to check your Maybankard 2 Cards transactions, you need to go to a Maybank branch to get it done. Better that inform the officer that you want the Maybankard 2 Visa or MasterCard as the main account and add your Maybankard 2 Amex to it. However if you want your Maybankard 2 Amex to be the main card for the account, when you first log in to register username add 0 to the 15 digits of your Amex card.

Click 'I am interested' on the MBB2 website

not really for me since i clicked this 1 month ago and still no news. just clicked again yesterday

MBB now has 2 more card centres in Klang Valley, other that KL Main, which are:
1. Card Centre One Utama Shoppping Centre
2. Card Centre KLCC

operating hours ?

Hi, one of my friend clicked 2 weeks plus but still no reply.
Finally last Friday received email and ask to fill in application form.

1U MBB Card Center opens 10am-10pm daily if not mistaken

I only knew the operating hours for 1U card centre, which is 10am till 9pm daily. Closed on Hari Raya.

I applied mine through email 7 days ago on my own initiative.

Then 4 days ago, someone from Maybank phoned me, i believe it's because i click the 'i am interested' thingy. She asked me to email the application to her and i did.

Just now, I called AMEX customer care line to follow up and was informed that there is no record on the system yet, and had me re-sent my application.

So all in all, i have submitted my application 3 times.

lol, something similar is happening to me. it must be really chaotic there right now

Added on March 15, 2011, 2:06 pmthe funny thing is she email me the amex application form as well

Added on March 15, 2011, 2:07 pmim dragging time since i want to get the mastercard, not visa since visa don't have any promotion

i'm existing amex gold cc member and i fax the application form and supporting docs to 1300888899 on the 3 Mar. until now they say no record in the system yet even after numerous call. wanna give up already....

Refax your application to the number I posted in the first post if by end of this week still not in system.

Finally ! This is so much more convenient to me. 1Utama simply is just too far from the city centre.

But 1 utama is nearby my place...

Normally when can we see the 5% rebate? My last statement i don't see any rebate appear on my statement. Is it normal for 1st statement didn't show the 5% rebate?

5% will be shown on the 1st day of the month following statement month

Oic,thanks .

Go to The Curve flea market during the weekend. The credit card counters are located at the middle point in front of The Apartment. You get a free umbrella from Maybank for applying.

I'm disappointed though Popular bookshop does not take Amex.

Added on March 15, 2011, 11:00 pmEh, the Amex cannot use to pay bills? Do i have to activate my cards for online payments and purchases?

This post has been edited by sailou: Mar 15 2011, 11:00 PM

Thx for the info bro

just receive a call from maybank card centre that i have been pre-approved and i do not have to do anything.

Forgot to ask when and where i can collect the cards. Have not see the cards in my online banking.

I only click the 'im interested button' and have existing maybank cc

Since you forgot to ask, why don't you call back CS and ask?
Do you really want the cards, or are you just interested only?

Applied platinum but Maybank give me gold whereas CIMB and HSBC give me platimum with higher credit limit

called them yesterday morning to taruk them kau kau and get the card approved yesterday afternoon. can see the cards are linked to my mbb2u.

but still yet to receive my card.....keep on waiting....

I really like the benefits of this card but I can't fulfill the annual salary requirement, can I add in other income like Rental Income?

Funny, the branch told me is gold card but the card centre officer confirmed it's a platinum card... Just wait and see what will I receive next week.

Today, i received feedbacks from all three channels, each saying my application is being processed. I send an email to inform them to not treat it as separate applications and give me Platinum AMEX+visa and Gold AMEX+visa I do not wish to end up having to pay RM50 + RM50 GST and have 4 cards from the same bank. Any advice on this?

This post has been edited by Human Nature: Mar 16 2011, 07:48 PM

I always go there, till one of the CS can even rocognized me...

Added on March 16, 2011, 8:30 pmWhich MBB Plat card? The generic Plat or the MBB 2 Plat?

This post has been edited by Alec.Yong: Mar 16 2011, 08:30 PM

Look at the bright side. It's not really a bad thing because with only 1 set of platinum card, you are only able to get back RM50 cash back with 1k spent. With 2 sets you can now earn RM100 cash back with 2k spent.

Can anyone teach me how to make bill payments with Amex via M2U? The drop down merchant menu in my M2U is empty for Amex.

go to the branch and tell them you need the card for overseas trip...
however you may get a rm10000 credit limit

It's not supported. Cannot pay bills using AMEX via M2U at the mean time.

Like you, I cancelled my gold card. Card sudah potong but still show up in my M2U got 4 cards there

Called numerous times to complain, but still there. 1 month liao.

You have to keep on calling for a couple of times like what I did.

Finally, I can see that only active cards are shown in M2U now.

yay i got my cards now.
now planning how to use them perfectly

my cards:
citibank clear card (0.5%) = on everything else
citibank cashback (0.3% on everything, 2% on pharma, grocery, 5% on fuel)
maybank 2card (2.5% on everything, 2.5+5% weekends)

my major problem is online payments like insurance, utility etc.
any ideas?

What's the difference between AMEX and Visa? Besides the cash back %? Why the need for 2 cards?

because not all places can use amex.
the visa card can keep in drawer because it only give 0.5% rebate.

If merchant do not accept Amex, still have Visa as backup.

AMEX: 5x TP + 5% cash rebate (weekend only) up to RM 50 per month
Visa: 1x TP

MBB 2 platinum. Cs said is platinum but branch said is gold. Will see what I collect from branch next week. Submit application last Tuesday through branch was told to b approved 7 days, after call follow up, it was approved this Wednesday. Not bad

Added on March 18, 2011, 11:11 amwow... just received call from the branch that my card is ready for collection now. In total, MBB took 10 calendar days to process and release the card.

Hi Guys,

I need your Opinion here on credit cards. Currently i have a American Express Gold Card. I have applied for CIMB tng VISA platinium and got it. I was thinking whether to cancel the cimb TnG visa Platimiun and covert my America Express Gold Card to Maybank 2 Platinium.

I have compare both of the benefits in terms of insurance. Missed Flight Connection, Flight Delay and Flight Luggage Delay does cover RM1000 for the insured person for CIMB Platimiun card. Maybank is much lower RM800. For Flight Luggage loss, Maybank offer RM2500 and CIMB offers RM 1000. There is no Retail protection found on CIMB card.

Do you think i should terminated my CIMB card and convert the American Express Gold to Maybank 2 Platinium? Please advice.

Guys, I just got my Maybankard 2, earlier this month.
From the details here, I need to pay whatever I spent within this few weeks before 23rd March?

Last payment amount: RM0.00
Last payment date: N/A
Minimum payment amount: RM0.00
Outstanding balance: RMxxxxx Pay Any Amount Now
Statement balance: RM0.00
Payment due date: 23 March 2011
Statement date: 03 March 2011
Current TreatsPoints: xxxx

Statement balance: RM0.00, so no need to pay anything
wait for ur next statement on 03 April

when did u received the card?

first week of march..

ok, then i thk u did not pick up the card immediately or MBB delays sending ur card
just wait for ur next statement

ya, they have delay in delivery.
thanks for the info!

Go convert the AMEX Gold CC to Maybankard 2 Cards. Not only Maybankards 2 cards gives you Travel Insurance, but your get 5X TP for any transactions and cash back 5%. As for CIMB, you got to go decide if CIMB promotions benefit you.

Not Maybankard 2 Gold though. It doesn't come with complimentary travel insurance. And by the way, CIMB kind of sucks these days.

Hahahaha, got my MBB2 card. Tomorrow can go shopping. 5% cash back. Muahahahaha
By the way, does anybody know if the "Purchase Protection Plan" is free or need to pay.

It's free. I assume you got the Platinum cards too ?

Thanks for letting me know.
Yes, I got the Platinum.

i just want ask...# 5% Weekend cash back² when spend on Maybankard 2 American Express Card.
²A cap of RM50 per customer (Principal Cardmember) per month..............................what does this means???

Every purchases charged to your Maybankard 2 AMEX during weekend will get you additional 5% cash back on top of the usual RM1 = 5 Treatpoints. However, this cash back is capped at only RM50 per month. It means that even if you charge RM5k into your Maybankard 2 AMEX on the weekend in a calender month, you can only get a maximum cash back of RM50.

Means you swipe during weekend you get 5% cash back. Maximum cash back you can get every month is RM50.

When I receive the card, the instruction says I have to acknowledge receipt & sign on the paper and return it to Maybank. Can I just ignore this?

Just ignore it and go use your cards

Cool. Maybank shouldn't ask people to sign and return the paper. Because it contains so much personal information... card number, expiry, name, IC No..and signature. If somebody get their hands on this paper, or if lost in post,.. then dangerous.

It is a standard letter that have been issued for years. the thing is MBB should at least make us call to activate the card and after verification then only the card can be use, but this is not the case. If you collect it at the branch, then the officer will make you sign on the form.

my maybankard 2 has been finally charged with GST, but it got waived automatically



17-Mar-2011 SERVICE TAX - PRINCIPAL RM50.00
17-Mar-2011PAID SERVICE TAX - PRINCIPA RM50.00

Is that an error or mistake for the portion being waived automatically? Maybank got absorb GST?

This post has been edited by David83: Mar 19 2011, 10:55 PM

yah yah yah, please elaborate.

In the Product Disclosure Sheet it is already mentioned that the GST of M2Amex is waived by the bank.

But M2 Visa will still be charged with GST. So don't get too excited.

Yes, that happen to your AMEX account transaction history.
If you check your VISA / MASTER transaction history, the ST was charged.

i wonder how long does it take for the bank to get back to us if we've applied for the card?

Usually within 10 working days.
You may follow up your application time after time so that they won't forget you

oh forgot about that but so far my M2 Visa haven't charge anything yet

Hmm, i'm in contact with the one who apply for me through e-mail only.
Until now no revert from her.. and it's been ard 15 days already.
any other places i could check up with?

Try AMEX Customer Service Executives at 1800 88 9559

thanks for the heads up.
will definitely give a call first thing in the morning!

I think you can call now too since its a 24 hours helpline...

hi i am new to credit cards and kinda interested in this maybank2card .
1. may i know if AMEX card is widely usable or its use is fairly limited? (supermarket, restaraunt etc).Can we check where is this card accepted?

2. While alot of ppl said that Mastercard or visa card is a matter of preference, any one of you mind to share which might be better to get?

3. As far as i know we can do withdrawal with credit card via ATM, can we ask the bank to disable this or reduce the limits?(incase if being held at knife point can reduce the money lost from withdrawal using credit card)

actually i think my card will be rejected.
just read thru and saw that if i got blacklisted in TM, i won't be able to get it approved.
is this true? anyway to clear my blacklist n stuffs?

if you can qualify for the MBB 2, just apply for it. If AMex cannot be used, you still got the Visa or MC. If you are in KL and do shop during the Mega Sale and year end festivals, MC do have promotion. Click below link to read my review on MBB Dua.

http://creditcardsmalaysia.blogspot.com/20...an-express.html

Hi all, got my card.

But on maybank2u I only see the AMEX, not the VISA. Is it normal?

What is the name of card displayed?

Still waiting fro the GST to be in my Visa card...
AMEX's GST was waived as promised.

I have already read that entry,that is why i am thinking of getting MBB2 after reading your review. your blog have been helpful for ppl new to credit card like me i think i meet the requirement for the MBB2 Gold ,but so far i only have 1 payslip since i just started working. So MC is better since it got promotion?if so,than i will wait till the MBB2 MC is available before applying.

about the supp card for MBB2, will it be 2 supp cards or will it be only one(either AMEX or Visa/MC)? and how much to pay for GST for supp card rm25 for 2?or rm25x2 =rm50 for 2? i am thinking of getting supp card for my parent since they do most of the grocery shopping,can earn more points .

Supplementary cards of Maybankard 2 come as a pair of amex+visa/mc as well, however, you need to bear RM25 for EACH card, ie. RM50 for the pair.
No, you can't apply for only Amex supp card. It must come along with either a VISA or Mastercard.

I'm afraid one month's payslip is not likely to make application successful. Maybe you should apply at a later time when you have three months payslip.

In the product disclosure, it is stated that"


when you guys mentioned the conversion rate for the other cards, is the 2.5% interest already taken into factor? I wonder if all cards imposed this conversion fee?

Visa/MC impose 1% admin charge on converted amount in Ringgit Malaysia.

Is the Maybankard2 AMEX Platinum entitled to Shangri-La's dining promotion ?
Eg. http://www.americanexpress.com.my/amx_info...-OffersServices

No, it's only applicable to American Express Platinum Card (without Maybankard logo).

Yes


Yes. The admin fee charged for transactions done in foreign currency vary from bank to bank. Please refer to the general Credit Card thread for the detailed list of foreign transaction admin fee imposed by each bank.

i want to ask bout credit limit, would i need to submit any doc to increase my credit limit for maybank 2 cards?

can u use the m2card to pay car loan for public bank??
if can, amex can use?

Loan-on-loan is prohibited
If it is allowed, I would already repay PTPTN using Amex

call CS, number behind your card and ask.

how nice if we can pay our loans with credit cards and earn points or cash back. The answer is no.

Sweat lo.. My application is still in queue due to overwhelming applications recently..

From Maybankard's FB reply


Next time have to try to swipe AMEX inside Petronas on weekends.

I failed to swipe AMEX at Esso self kiosk nearby my place. Tried twice also failed.

Frustated after that and went to Shell to refill, it went through.

have you tried all other pumps?

I'm kind of rush at that. No time to test one by one.

Ok.
Maybe next time, pls try another pump

It appeared something like "MAYBANK2 AMEX PLATINUM".. it is normal that the "MAYBANK2 VISA PLATINUM" not showing up?

Can i use m2card amex to autopay TNB, Syabas, MPK and TM??
Still got promotion that gives 10k TP?
