attempted to apply grab card from the website, the address was the previous address ( I moved ), and the website there asked me to call CS to update my address.
In the end the CS just asked me to go to the settings and update my saving account address, and when I waited for 2 days and go back to the application website, my address is still not changed. (CS in the phone told me I need to wait 24hours)
Sometimes I wonder how even some Maybank CS get their job? Simply give solutions simply entertain customer. Nice.
Anyway, what else can I do? Besides calling them again?
Yeah, some Maybank CS are indeed terrible. I could not use my new MBB Grab card for FPX transactions although I could use my existing Amex for that. The error message was "Transaction declined. Please contact bank". I contacted CS and was told there was no attempt to charge at all on their side, so she cannot see what was the problem. She said since there was no attempt at all, it was not the bank that declined my transaction. I asked if I needed to enable anything to use that card for FPX and was told it was not necessary. I asked her what else can I do and she said there was nothing else I could do, and there was nothing she could do to help me either. What kind of solution is that?
Obviously, the problem is with Maybank and not the merchant. I was able to use other banks' cards with FPX. I could even use my Amex but surprisingly, I could not use my Grab or even FCB card for FPX. Only one card worked but not the rest. I wonder if anyone has similar issue and managed to solve it. Any suggestions would be welcomed.

Yeah, some of the guys here are indeed more knowledgeable than the so-called professional CS staff. I once contacted Maybank CS regarding the issue with FPX for GIA-i placement. My money was deducted from the source bank but it was not reflected in GIA-i account. He did not know what GIA-i was, so I told him it was General Investment Account-i. When he heard the word investment, he immediately asked me to contact my broker or Maybank Investment Bank as they only deal with deposit accounts. This coming from a Maybank staff? I had to educate him that GIA-i is a product of Maybank Islamic and nothing to do with share investment.

He did not manage to solve my problems at all even after waiting for days. Luckily, another CS that I contacted through e-mail managed to solve it for me but it still took weeks to get the money refunded to my account.
