Maybank never increase your card limit automatically. You have to do it manually.

This is my experience from 9 years of using MBB CC

Later after you reply, then you will be charge a monthly hidden premium sms fee.

The sms gateway number is shared and not owned by Maybank alone.

Best to call Maybank hotline.

call bank to confirm.

1. Bank already have ur NRIC.
2. Bank can increase limit without customer need to reply sms.
3. Bank can increase limit by calling customer.
4. etc..

Citibank called me personally about limit upgrade. Talk kok sing song, when i was about to agree, she ask for mothers name etc. I told her i not comfortable with giving all these. U bank should have the information liao. Hanged up.

One month later, citibank sent me a letter informing me that i am eligible for upgrade, just call customer support.

Moral: dont confirm anything over the phone. If its urs, they will get it to you no matter what.

nope, last time before the new BNM rulings, maybank will automatically increase your limit if you are a good paymaster/spend a lot using card/loyal to maybank whenever renewing card.

my example was i started at rm5k in 2005, then increased to rm10k in 2008 (1st renewal) and later rm15k in 2011 (2nd renewal).

i think the auto-increase in credit limit stopped around 2011/2012, when bnm required all banks to follow the new cc limit (base salary x 3 or something) and that those who earn less than rm24k/year are no longer eligible to get credit cards at all...

those who earn less than rm36k/year can only have 1 card...
