QUOTE(selvenz @ Apr 2 2015, 04:51 PM) If number is 20246688 be wary, i called maybank twice first time they say there is no record of this number in their system, and no calls were made. Called second time, today now they tell me this number is their internal telemarketer but unable to see any records of a call to me. Funny also offering maybank2card platinum. said was pre approved and will deliver card to home in 14 days. irony they didnt ask for income tax , epf etc just said since my salary is via maybank no need any further documents. I find it hard to believe but will wait and see. Er.. I had my pre-approved cards the same way too back in 2011 when it was just introduced to the market.

QUOTE(maskedchan @ Apr 2 2015, 04:58 PM) you think too much.. if he had all the information about you..what he can scam you? did the person ask any extra information from you? or did the person just ask your consent of accepting the offer? Maybe im being paranoid, i have been burned badly thru identity theft once. who remembers Southern Bank "direct Access". Took me 2 years and all the running around to clear my name from ctos , lawyers etc. In the end i still have to pay off the debt. so i just want to be careful.

Actually if I were you due to bad encounter, I will just reject the offer and apply directly from the bank instead.

I find it hard to believe but will wait and see. This is common if you are using maybank account to receive your salary. i myself applied the m2c without needing to provide anything at all. they just look at my account and ensure the salary is enough to apply for platinum card. received my card within 4 working days. and they're all through phone.

There is a difference. In your case, you applied. In this case, it was supposedly from a 'telemarketer'. The issue is on whether that telemarketer is genuine or a scammer This post has been edited by Human Nature: Apr 2 2015, 07:27 PM

But that is just me. You need to check with customer service whether it is possible to convert or not as they are not having the same credit limit and considered as different entity (islamic banking).

If u have doubt, just reject it. I just want to point out maybank do have facility to pre-approve card for u if u banking with them QUOTE(Human Nature @ Apr 2 2015, 07:31 PM) higher admin fee, lesser acceptance, 5% cashback on weekends, 5x TP everyday Actually AMEX acceptance in Singapore not that bad. Almost all big departmental store accept it. Also restaurant widely accept AMEX
