Only the digi centre has 24h kiosk no?

Hi there.

I have an urgent question regarding usage of the Maybank2 Card overseas.
I'm planning to use the cards in both UK and Europe this month. Do I require to have a PIN number to use the cards at oversea merchants?

I thought that the PIN was only required to withdraw cash from ATM using Credit Cards?

Appreciate advise since I'm leaving quite soon.

Came back from German early June. No PIN required

No need. When the cashier at the respective country will confirm with you if PIN input is needed to authorize the swipe, you just answer no.

Thanks for the replies.

Was just wondering coz when I called the bank to activate my CC for oversea usage, the operator said that I needed to have a PIN to use the card in UK and Europe.
And he specifically mentioned that without the PIN, I will not be able to purchase at the merchant.

Is the PIN compulsory or just optional?

At China, their CC needs PIN input too but I was able to use mine without inputting any PIN.

just tell them no pin and press enter if the terminal prompt you for pin.

they will then ask for your signature.

Should work fine.

Normally in UK / Europe PIN is only needed if you're using a locally issued credit card.

I've used my MBB2, MBB Premier / VI cards in UK etc. not long ago and all was fine using signature only.

on first post stated can use amex to pay assessment bills, but when i want to pay, it doesnt have the options for me to choose amex card to pay.

i'm missing something here?

which assessment you are paying to? not all accept amex.

So when the cashier request for you to input your PIN, do you just inform that you have no PIN?
Will they proceed with the transaction?

I see. So as long as I have not activated/ requested for a PIN from Maybank, pressing enter on the CC Terminal should allow the transaction to proceed right?


How long back was that sifu? Is there any clear signage saying that PIN is required? Or will it depend on the retailer?

Hopefully I'll still get to use my cards in UK/ Europe without my PIN. I'll update this thread if I succeed or not. The Maybank CC Hotline Operator was saying that if I have no PIN, than I will not be able to purchase at certain retailers. I checked online and it mentioned that un-manned terminal are usually the ones that require a PIN input.

MP Pulau Pinang, MP Seberang Perai...
MP Kuala Selangor and MP Selayang not yet tried..

This was only a few months ago, both Germany and UK.

This is usually the case, as many foreign cards won't actually have PIN assigned to them, no problem.

I actually have UK cards also, but don't know any of the PIN so that's why using Maybank cards

yeah, not all can. i paid before to mpsj, mbsa, mbmb no problem. many more also can, but too bad just not all.

Anyone tried amex for MAS on9 ticket and get the 5% cb on weekend?

As long as they accept Amex payment then will entitle the 5% cb because all transaction on weekend will entitle the 5% cb.

Hi, I would like to ask anyone can help me on applying the Maybankard 2 card? As I don't know why i got rejected from the application.

Gross salary : 2.9K, After deduction : 2.5k+

However, I not sure I fill in the application in a correct way and my document as the PIC dint ask from me.
I din't give my bank statement for at least 6 month. I got FD and my salary with HLB. I did not fill in my car loan which will be starting from September with Toyota - new vios 56k loan. PTPTN repayment starting from December with schedule but now I advance payment to reduce the repayment amount starting from December.
As i initially did not know I need to fill in into the form since it havent offically start to pay the loan.

Anyone can kindly advice me on applying the credit card?

Thanks.

even if you did not fill in your car loan, they still can view by checking your ccris, however, ptptn is not listed there.
do you have other loans or cc? they are able to view as well.
you may attach more documents when reapplying like your bank statement, epf, tax, etc.
