You can check your Maybankard 2 Cards transactions online with Maybank2U.com

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 you 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. Maybank2U for Maybank Credit Cards - You Don't Need To Have A Maybank Current or Savings Account.

However, if you are new to credit cards, I strongly recommend that you DO NOT opt for the paperless option (i.e. receive our monthly statements online) until you familiarize yourself with Statement Balance, Outstanding Balance, Minimum Payment and Payment Due Date.

why not? whatever remaining of your epp, it will be deducted from your credit limit and will only be available after you have made payment for it each month
else how can the bank make sure you have enough CL to always include the epp each month

old card got fraud? or missing?

if chip faulty no need to change number, if missing i'm not sure
is the CVV number the same (the 4 digit in front)

This post has been edited by alexwsk: May 20 2013, 11:57 PM

since no fraud, same number will be given
unless u tell them up front to change the number

request granted
next time see this question, can answer "please read first 3 posts"

Regarding Maybank Agoda discount, if anyone successfully done the booking with discount, please post back here with the url used for booking. Thanks.

great, will update at the 3rd post
ronniebtw, did u book on sat or sunday and at what time?

This post has been edited by alexwsk: May 24 2013, 01:14 PM

David83, how much is the discount using the link above, is it 5% 6% or 7%? Thanks.

print it out from your online statement
then bring to the bank and ask the customer service to acknowledge by stamping it

i did it for my e-statement from M2U, brought it to Maybank to get a chop on it, not sure whether applicable to CIMB or not

u use visa/master or amex?
i assume yours is platinum card.

the bank will check your ccris report, and all your cc will be in there

this is thread version 7, so rest assured all of us are getting the cash back as advertised
we will surely update if there are any changes to the benefits or doubt regarding the card

maybank shud follow this thread if they are smart, and they better train their staffs properly (for me those facebook replies shud not be allow to occur at all)

this was also added to the 3rd post, too bad ppl normally dun refer

no no, dun misunderstand
you are too kind to dig it up for him

but i reckon most of the questions here can be avoided if the poster read the 1st 3 posts first
or maybe i need to reorganize it properly

anyone can provide ideas on how to make it better?
