I walked-in personally to maybank branch in Kulai for a current account and cek book. But they said the minimum is RM3000 for a new account. Is that true???

Maybank BoleH。。 If U Join “cepat kaya” using their a/c, U got no problems. But if your current a/c have few ‘void’ cheqce ,their will ask for detail like Bukit Aman…
.And If MBB Cr Card few month not settle,THEY work very hard to TAG (ISA) your others a/c, while others bank will try to understand your problems…………
So. just move to better service’s bank…..
Other local bank H, P also offer online ebroking………….
keep our dummy a/c by rm1 ……………………

Alamak! everybody seems dislike Maybank. I was the bank staff before. I would rather agree that to some extend some of the bank’s staff are quite “sombong” when attending to customers. In fact, I had experienced the same when I was visiting one of the branches. but when they recognized me, they immediately changed hahaha..

just for info, normally when you open a premier savings the bank shall offer you to open a personal current account to be linked to that savings. In your case, I didn’t know why only premier savings was given.

Hmmm…I hope my former department shall continue to educate the frontline staff and at the same time to continue improving the products which have become unattractive nowadays.

Hope Datuk Seri Wahid will do something better!

Maybank really sucks! Lost 4.0Billion just like that, really SILLY!
I suggest you to open a PB account instead

actually, if you have a gold card from public bank (credit card), PB Bank doesn’t need an introducer for a current account

look at:

http://www.pbebank.com/en/en_content/personal/cards/visa_gd.html

Current Account
Open a Current Account at any Public Bank branch without an introducer.

Good luck

It is a standard procedure that an introducer is needed to open a current account.
Sometimes if you have no introducer, the branch manager will be one for that purpose.

I dont like Maybank. After forgotten my password I requested them to close the account, but still they didn’t.

I have 2 accounts with Maybank. A personal saving account with the Alor Star main branch and a Maybank2U Premiere (previously known as i-Account, a interest paying current account which does not require any introducer) with Penang main branch. I have no problem opening a third one.

Well if we’re talking about SERVICE by MBB here, of course theirs are unsatisfactory.

But if you REALLY need a current account, and cheque, then why don’t you just get AN INTRODUCER (I believe many people willing to be your introducer ) and do charity, and pay my comment (hehe).

@Patick: my maybank online stock account is already a Premier account BUT it does not give cheque book like other Premier account. Weird? It is.

@aHfUi: PB Bank required introducer to open a current account

Easy, just change your current saving account to Premier (which got cheque facilities and higher interest).

Maybank sucks. Big time.
I forgot the password for the online margin trading account and asked for help to retrieve it, they had me run around, so I decided to close the account. After three years, it’s still not closed and they kept sending me monthly statements for a dormant account!!

aiseh… the bank so sombong, tot they r the only bank provide the service ah? When I want to open a current account, I never think of MBB althought I have a few accounts with them…

I choose AmIslamic Bank. They do request for introducer, but I request the officer to check to their system as I m their customer since long long long long ago althought is not with that particular branch (of course I never have current account with them before) and at the end the officer allow me to open the account without introducer. The officer just take less than a minit to make the decision.

That is the flexibility which the tiger bank cannot provide to their customer.
