I'm not sure if you all are familiar with maybank priority banking

Standard Chartered Preferred Banking will be launch on soon, somewhere around 23 August to early september, the minimum requirement are RM 72k p.a. minimum salary or place a FD of 72k or combination of investment,FD and CA,SA with SCB MAlaysia then we will entitled with the Preferred Banking status. We will rewards with WORLD MASTERCARD as that shown our priviligle

Hey i want to ask about western union. Will be using it for the first time. Different bank different rate right? Which bank would is recommended? RHB, Bank simpanan nasional or CIMB? Let's say will be sending around 500USB. Normally how much is the fee?

Thanks

I have some transitional (temporary) money in my CIMB account, then suddenly they send me a CIMB preferred card, and automatically (forcefully) enrolled me. Now if I want to take out the money from the account, will they give me a penalty or they will automatically remove my status?

If these temporary money keeps going in and out, are they going to keep giving me the preferred banking and then retract it each time? Hmm weird system...   

It would be better if they give us a choice to choose.... Anyway tried CIMB preferred banking, got coffee and tea to drink, comfy chairs, 1 to 1 banking, but still same as CIMB, slow as hell.  Withdraw FD also need to take 1/2 hour... haiz something never change.

So cheap meh? 72k of investment can get priority status and world card, they have really dropped their status. Used to be 200k. 

If we already a StandChart Priority Banking client, we need to invest/deposit another RM72k to qualify for the Preferred Banking?

How about for example we have RM400k invest/deposit with them, we still need to invest/deposit RM72k again?
Or maybe only either one status(Priority or Preferred) can be obtain by a single customer?

I understand that if we receive the direct invitation if we are the existing client then it will be direct access to the Preferred Banking. Where as the card and status will automatically approve. Only those who receive the mail during last few weeks and upon invitation by the Relationship Manager then it consider as Pre-Approved. OR else we need to submit income document as proof as well, to meet the requirement of 72K p.a.

I do believe it should be as same as Singapore because most of the bank doesn't allow double standard. From the website, most of the benefit are the same and it shown as the same card we apply. Therefore i dont see any different from there. IT should be a complimentary card to shown our status as Preffered CLient in Standard Chartered.

If u can deposit RM 72k into Standard Chartered then it wil be complimentary card, but if not we still can apply tru RM 72k p.a of annual income.

Hi, Just to check, which bank can deposit and withdraw FD online?

All Priority Banking customers are granted free for life platinum cards right? or in some cases infinite or world cards. Are these cards pre approved or subject to normal credit processing?

I'm interested to be a SCB's preferred banking customer, can anyone introduce any banking officer that I can talk to?

Forumers, just wanna ask - does the priority service of UOB, OCBC, Standard Chartered, Citibank - allow me to open an account in their Singapore branch without me having to be physically present in Singapore. And do they offer free telegraphic transfer of funds from my Malaysian account to my Singapore account?

Noted, thanks. Does UOB and OCBC offer the same?

I see. Does HSBC and Standard Chartered accept a big housing loan in place of the RM200k-RM250k deposit? For example, CIMB Preferred is available to those with a minium of RM1 million loan with the bank.

I like HSBC for its first class service but Standard Chartered offers innovative products and are generous in giving out loans.

priority means..no need to queue.
cut the queue all the time..

To my knowledge, CIMB's Prime Plan also offers priority banking service, including cash withdrawal/deposit at the counter

You get to cut queue if you're using the normal counters at HSBC.

But if you want to see the RM without an appointment, you usually have to wait. I asked the Branch Manager before the number of clients each RM serves, and he said "...we try to limit each RM to 200 clients".

Sometimes, priority customers do need to wait if there are lots of priority customer. However, so far it is much much faster/convenient than the counter. And also you get nice comfy chairs, free newspaper to read and free good quality coffee/tea available while you are waiting for your turn or transaction to complete and your RM fills in all your forms etc.. Beats waiting for a queue number and standing at the counter.   

I dont go HK and wont do the banking there oso..
prime plan is too common.
I want something that is so limit. but very sad i got no money

Hmm I saw the standard charted Preferred Banking, it is more of a lite version of their priority banking, similar to CIMB Prime? 

Hi,

In the list of fees and charges of CIMB Prime Account, there is an item stating as below:

Interbranch Current Account Cash Withdrawal (for individual account only)  RM5 per transaction

Do you have idea what it means?

I see... So there is no such priority queuing in fact. The priority is paid anyway.
This I really never realized! Thanks for pointing out! It seems only closure of CIMB Basic accounts are exempted from the fee.

I'm not worried about that half yearly service charge (aka maintenance fee?) because DA's Premier Plus Acc and Prime Plan can waive it.

I just noticed that Prime Current Acc and DA Current Acc don't have such HALF YEARLY SERVICE CHARGE. Only Regular current account got.
