Hi guys, probably not the right thread but since it does concern Maybank, just have a question.
Is it true that there is a promo going on now where Maybank is giving out free Visa/Mastercard + American Express CC? I got a call from them (03-22046688) earlier this morning regarding this. It sounded like a scam, but then again I had no CC with Maybank nor did the person asked me anything regarding of my bank acc. no. Only said I was eligible for the promo.
Called Maybank customer service and they did say that there is a promo like that going on right now, but they cannot confirm the number as it is a telesales line or something?
Any info regarding this will be appreciated.

QUOTE(maskedchan @ Jun 22 2015, 01:21 PM) did you salary go into maybank account? this is pre-approval card for you.. if you agreed, they will proceed with issuing the CC to you.. just becareful and not to disclose any information about your bank account or any other personal information. Yes my salary goes into my bank account. The person actually already knows my IC no., name, and home address though. I did not give any info regarding my bank a.c no. Maybank customer service said that it is quite possibly from their telesales department. But has anyone here received a call-in promo like that recently?

So, safe to say the call was legit then? Did do a search on this number 03-60246688 and results are like 50/50. Some say legit, some say it's scam. So scam and legit promos from the same number...

QUOTE(fruitie @ Jun 22 2015, 01:58 PM) Well, you can always proceed so long you don't furnish more information from your end. Mine was, they did call to my company for employment confirmation.  QUOTE(sj0217 @ Jun 22 2015, 02:03 PM) If you still worrying of this phone call whether is scam or not. You can direct apply from card center if interested, easy and fast take the card if approved. Thanks for the info. Thing is, I don't really need the card. I know it's free annual fee and GST, buy already have 3 CC, don't need another 2 more. So was just curious to know if the call was legit or not, whether my info has fallen to the wrong hands.

QUOTE(red_scorpion @ Jun 23 2015, 12:39 AM) Bro, that is not promo..that is pre-approve card offer to you..If you want just accept it, they will issue it for you, you need not to do anything. You can request them send the card to nearest branch or mailing address. I had received maybank pre approve card call since 8 years ago, that time was mbb visa classic card when i just worked for 8 months, salary auto credit into mbb accts , Thanks for the info. They did ask me for my mother's maiden name too though. You mentioned 8 months of salary, but it's only been 1 month since I started moving all my salary pay to my MBB acc. Previously was CIMB.
