From what I heard..
Just use mykad for transactions.. Don't need passbook..
After finish, teller print out slip

Is it system totally down, aside from the website? I went to Maybank, can't even open account for ASW and ASM. Teller say no units at all.

Hi guys. Am new here. So if i wanna open account for all three ASM,ASW,AS1M, do i need to fill 3 sets of forms for 3 account, or just 1 set will do for all? Thanks

Cool down after the joy, let me share my details experience at Affin bank.

As usual, we always thought we need IC to verify right.
It is not the case for Affin bank.

Checked my account and check units available !

And vola... Available and managed to subscribed!

Realized Affin bank hardly got people, when taking my number, only 2 number in front of me, but only 1 counter for ASNB.

All done within 15mins! So guys gals u all know where to try your luck to open ur account for newbie like me.

true also, will visit ASNB when passby next time to ask for details
and noob question here, why dont we just focus on 1 lets say ASW, but put into 3 different ASM, AS1M and ASW?
on the side note, ASM faster apply now, plenty!

I got 1200 units of ASM this afternoon. Out of bullets now till my next FD expire..

Recently i went to asnb office to update my as1m and asw2020, they told me now no longer using investment book. If wanna check use IC will do. What happen?

Hello folks,

After going through this post, I feel like I was born yesterday as I do not have a ASX account yet. Anyway, going to open one now. Few questions, if you don't mind:

1. I take it that the best place to open will be at an ASNB office instead of bank?

2. Does the ASNB branch need to be close to your house address as in case of opening FDs, where they will ask you to go to a branch close to your home address?

3. What documents do I need to bring to open the account? Proof of income, address?

4. I had a look through Maybank website about online top-up. I am a non-bumi, so looking at ASW, ASM, AS1M. Of these, I could only see AS1M on the Maybank's website. Is this correct? If yes, how can I top up the others?

Thanks.

Avoid ASN. If you are bumi go for ASB & ASB2.
If non bumi, go for ASW2020, ASM,  AS1M

Make sure the investment u intended to put must be above EPF or ASx funds return...

If not no use... Might well just dump into EPF or ASx funds

Can you discipline yourself to consistently contribute the extra into ASNB every month?

First few months possible can.. Later?? End up Spending

If can don't disturb your EPF contribution..

Your are welcome..

Remain active in this thread because when you read others building up their units consistently, it wil motivate you to start your own.. Somehow you wil reduce your unnecessary expenses and start building your ASNB units...

So, leave your EPF alone... Have a great weekend too..

I can use my my no ahli in my book right?
Correction. Topup max amount in EPF for income tax relief. Don't topup more than needed and divert the rest to amanah saham. That way, money masuk EPF, income tax also reduce. Win win situation 

after registered and trying many many times, finally able to buy rm200 for asw2020....wtf...lol....

internet 'bank'ing. exactly.

except they're not a bank.

maintaining physical withdrawal as the only means could be a way to control outflow.

It will be too good to be true.
Will try rhb ambank and affin today.

sad to say i have 95% of my funds inside ASx also... dont know where to go, FD way too low %, wanna stay "safe" for now... cant afford to take the risk since my house just completed, wanna have some spare cashflow just incase... not pumping into housing loan since 6% > 4.15% housing loan
