If you do not have a Current or Savings Account with Maybank but you want a Maybank2U online account to check your Maybankard 2 Cards transactions, you need to go to a Maybank branch to get it done. Better that you inform the officer that you want the Maybankard 2 Visa or MasterCard as the main account and add your Maybankard 2 Amex to it. However if you want your Maybankard 2 Amex to be the main card for the account, when you first log in to register username add 0 to the 15 digits of your Amex card. Maybank2U for Maybank Credit Cards - You Don't Need To Have A Maybank Current or Savings Account.

However, if you are new to credit cards, I strongly recommend that you DO NOT opt for the paperless option (i.e. receive our monthly statements online) until you familiarize yourself with Statement Balance, Outstanding Balance, Minimum Payment and Payment Due Date.

Below info contributed by hebe87

I have received my partner of PIN & PAY MBB Card from Poslaju, almost two months ago.

Would like to check, how many days is allow to be active before expired ? Is it 90 Days from sending date from Bank ?

I can't recall it already

90 days.

No congrats posts.

already v17 still need congrats post?

anyways with pbb promo and wise revision, i use amex even less these days. their 5% weekend promo with minimum rm500 spending can go fly kite

V17 but getting slower d this thread

cos many ppl cut this card d or it's in the drawer sleeping

I still use for its 5% Weekend Dining to compliment my MACH though...

Now i know why my application got rejected.

and why is that?

Still use this card for airmiles

The guy said that i owned an Islamic cc less than a year.

So to add another conventional cc cannot.

But, it is do-able if only i split my credit limit into two.

Macam ni pun Boleh ...

Probably because my max credit limit is in 1 cc.

So, cant add more cc since its max. Unless you split it.

Commitment too High...?!

Reason of CC Rejection
https://ringgitplus.com/en/blog/Credit-Card...t-Rejected.html

probably reason #4. LOL

i reckon banks in general are more
picky this days in regards to approving credit cards and etc

Look at the economy also we should know
Perks of Credit Card also reduce already
Benefit also reduced. Cash Back worst! hahah

These days i find myself using the Visa more than the Amex card. Too many merchants don't accept amex
