For those of you without children under the age of 18 years old (so that you are eligible for a Junior Savings Account to earn higher interest rates) or need a Maybank Savings Account, check out Maybank2U Savers which is a pure Online Saving Account that can only be opened if you are a Maybank banking customer and has registered for M2U online account.
I wanted to open a Maybank Basic Savings
Account which earns nominal interest rates but was recommended against
doing so. Instead the Maybank Exec recommended that I opened a Normal
Savings Account for my purpose of linking all my Maybank Credit Cards to it in order for me to make payments online via Maybank2U.
And with a Maybank Savings Account, we may be issued a Maybankard Debit Card, and mine was a Platinum MasterCard where the 16 digit numbers ended with the number No.8, thanks to my lucky star. Initially, the first debit card the Maybank Exec wanted to give me did not have the number No.8.
I also applied for the Maybank2U Savers Online
Savings Account which earns me minimum 2.1% interest rate with minimum
deposit of RM2.5K.
