I'm in the process of deciding which credit card to apply for and the Maybank 2 cc was recommended to me by the guys at kopitiam.

I've looked around for info on the card and I think I have a decent idea on how to go about the application process. I went into the klcc branch an hour ago and they can definitely process it immediately if you send in a request before 4pm. They also accept applications all week long including weekends but you will only get your card the next business day. Also, this office closes at 7pm.

Another thing I've learned is that they only need your ic, 2 months salary and 3 month bank statements. No mention of the epf or tax records.

I have three questions that I haven't been able to clear yet:
1. Do I need to get the cards first before I can ask them to link it to a single m2u account or do I need to have the card in hand first? I do not have a checking or savings with Maybank.

2. How is payment done if I do not have a CASA? Can I just use climb clicks or do I need to do it personally at the Maybank branch?

3. Are statements sent electronically to my email or in paper form to my home? Can I make payment immediately after I use the cc or is it wise to wait until I get the statement and pay it off in one go?

Thanks for the input guys.

I went ahead and applied at the klcc brand at 3pm last Friday and was told that they'd try to process it in the hour (their policy is if you submit an application on business days before 4pm you can expect your cards within the hour). I was told to not leave the premise as i might be called back to pick up my cards. I got a call an hour later to provide a single detail i missed and i have not heard from them since. I expected a call over the weekend or at the very least a confirmation that my application was being processed and i could pick it up today but I've heard nothing so far.

I'm gonna give them a call later. The cc hot line is 1 300 88 6688 correct?

I just picked up my card. Apparently it was ready on the day I applied but they just didn't contact me. I called up the cs number and was told that my card was ready to be picked up.

I asked them about statements and I was told that I'll be getting hard copies at no charge. The rm1 is just for reprints.

I also asked them if they could hook me up to a single m2u account but they said no, since I do not have a casa. I read somewhere that you need to go to an experienced person to have it done. Can anyone here let me know of where I could go to have my cards linked to a single account?

Hmm, I checked my maybank2u account and the 2 cards are already shown there. Collected my cards today from the card center at the gardens.

Do you have a checking or savings account with Maybank?

Checking account. Shouldn't matter as long as you can access maybank2u online account, rite?

If you already have either checking or savings, the cards will be included into one online account.

If you don't have either, I will get an online account for each card. I've read here that it is possible to have a single online account for two cards without having a checking or savings account. I'd like to find out how.

I'm at the bank right now, trying to get them to pair two of the cards to one online account without having a casa. The wait is about 40 minutes long and I'm still not guaranteed that the staff is capable of doing what I am asking.

Can you guys tell me which branch you went to to get this done? Most places I know are full of staff who can only pair one card to one o line account.
