I applied thru Eform this morning. Got a call few hours later from local branch to go over the branch to verify n submit documents. Up to now , it is fast and efficient.
Was told by the officer that my form will b submitted to HQ this thursday as they have “24 hours approval campaign” on that day.
Let s see how.

I tot the previous posts said an agent will find the applicant? Your is bank staff call you and ask you to go to nearest branch?

I submitted the online application form first. Then branch called for thumbprint n document verification at the branch.

Hello all, if you are staying in Ipoh area and you plan to apply for these CC, i can recommend a Affin sales officer. For my case, i happy to get my application approved within 7 days. I did the submission by eform.

please note that i don't get any benefit in any form from the Affin sales officer. Purely just a recommendation for anyone who needs such service.

Just to share my experience in ipoh. Total 10 days from date of apply till self-collect the CC at branch. Apply internet banking on the spot. it is fast for my case.

Anyway, u cant avoid to go to the affin bank unless you dont want internet banking or you already have it.

For the internet banking application not really need to go bank.
Some officer can accept the submission via email.

good to know that. so i assume the applicant needs ask the officer to send the form via email first, fill up , sign, scan and send back.

anyway, for the card activation, i need to go to the ATM to key in the temporary PIN (from SMS, upon activation) and reset the PIN number.
i'm not sure if this can be done online as well. if not, then.... still need to go to the Branch.

for me, for the same visit to the bank, i collected, activated, re-set PIN and apply for Internet banking. Settle.

Card activation and set pin can be done thru phone banking.
So the entire processes can be complete without physically attend to branch

thanks for sharing. In summary, everything can be done without going to the branch.

yes, under FAQ from AFFIN

"Do I have to pay SST for AFFIN DUO?
Yes. For the first year, you only need to pay RM25 SST for AFFIN DUO. RM25 SST waiver will be
given on the second card (AFFIN Mastercard Rewards)."

Oops. I just click "sent" via email before reading your post here.

actually, this can also be done via phone call.
Based on my experience, AFFIN is quite efficient in this. Within 2hours, Affin bank returned my call and got my BT done.

So, I just called Affin Bank at 10.46 a.m. for CIP application and I was told an officer will call me back by today.

I'm surprised the call came in 5 minutes ago. rclxms.gif He asked me which card I want to use for CIP, I chose Rewards card so that I won't mess up with other cards' transaction as I don't plan to use this card at all. The problem is I haven't activated that CC yet. tongue.gif So, CS helped me to activate as well. Good job.

Everything was done via phone, it will be credited within 3-5 working days. The officer who called said if I'm interested with 0% BT, can straight contact CS and mention his name. This guy is efficient. thumbup.gif

Oh ya, my earlier call to CS also checked for my Duo statement date and I was told it is the same as VS.

another good experience dealing with Affin bank CS. Indeed very good! thumbup.gif


however the service on the email is not good. I sent an email about 2 weeks already, yet still no reply

sorry, i should say the sst will automatically charge after 3 months, not activate without your conscent
but if the card not activate how they gonna charge the sst ler

this is from mbb:
https://www.maybank2u.com.my/iwov-resources...ardsSST_FAQ.pdf

According to the link, it says:

"
i) New Card
For new card, Service Tax will be imposed upon activation of the card. If the card is not activated within 3 months, the Service Tax will be imposed on the 3rd month."

i think i just want to make it simple. Instead of keeping "previous statement balance RM3000", i just topup E-wallet RM1000, and get RM30 CB.
