got it today. card was delivered to branch on 4 Aug (according to the delivery acceptance stamp on the bank's book).

No one called me or informed me. The branch manager said HQ would have called me. The customer service said the branch manager would call. The CC dept said the branch will call me. (sad to see PBB's customer service has become so Malaysian-Style)

In the end, I was the one who CALLED to check and picked it up myself.

So that's a total of 3 weeks.

When i applied MBB 2Cards, i got it within 1 hour, with a RM10 complimentary starbucks voucher.

Priceless comment. rclxms.gif

Public Bank Customer Service also tells me that it takes about two weeks to get your application approved, and the card to be delivered to your house or home branch.

How come Maybank can be so efficient in performing eligibility check, CCRIS check and CTOS check within an hour, whereby Public Bank needs 2 weeks? Kudos to Maybank for their speedy approval on credit card. thumbup.gif

Perhaps, Public Bank Card Centre needs to organize 2-week long meetings, with Tan Sri Teh and Public Bank Upper Management, before they can process credit card application for a commoner like me. tongue.gif

Maybank has improved their service by a lot in recent years

Public Card stil has long way to go. My EMV chip got spoil so I got replacement Card and got few options how to activate the card

1) Self Service - via SMS

2) Call in

Just as other experts here suggested, just call customer service to activate your credit card.

Pretend that Option 1 - SMS activation does not exist in this world. biggrin.gif

What is the lowest threshold amount for the SMS transaction alert? Is it possible to set it at RM 1, via calling the customer support?

Assuming that I submit the application form for Public Bank Visa Signature today at a Public Bank branch, how long does it take for the automated phone system (03-21768000) to have a record of my application (knowing my IC number)?

Thanks for the information.

I have submitted the application form for Public Bank Visa Signature Card at a Public Bank branch end of last month. So, it is still under processing.

I am thinking of applying for Maybank Islamic MasterCard Ikhwan Card as well. If I choose to apply for this Ikhwan Card within next week or so, does it reduce my chances of getting the Public Bank Visa Signature Card?

Thanks for the information. smile.gif
