Update: Banking services on all of Maybank's channels are back to normal

In another episode, it seems that Maybank services are temporarily down (again). So if you think it's your internet issue, it's not and Maybank is currently working to resolve the issue as we speak.

Today, Xiaomi Corporation has announced that a donation of USD 100,000 (~RM 418,150) from the Xiaomi Foundation has been contributed to both Malaysia and the Philippines. The donation was given to the Yayasan Food Bank Malaysia's emergency flood-relief fund as well as the World Vision Philippines. 

Just a few minutes ago, Maybank just announced that there will be another maintenance happening across several of its services. Just like before, it will be just for 29 minutes, starting from 11.30 PM until 11.59 PM on 24 July 2021 which is a Saturday.  

In preparation for the 7.7 Mid Year Sales, Maybank just posted an announcement about they will be doing their maintenance on 6 July 2021 (Tuesday). It will be just for 29 minutes, starting from 11.30 PM until 11.59 PM. 

Here's a public service announcement - Maybank just announced that there will be a system maintenance exercise soon. Scheduled on 19 June 2021, all the Maybank ATMs, Self Service Terminals, Maybank2U and Mobile Banking Services will not be available.

Maybank has officially announced on their Facebook page stating that their routine system maintenance that was scheduled to be conducted on 5 May 2021 from 12:00 AM to 12:30 AM will be brought forward to 4 May 2021 from 11:30 PM to 11:59 PM. With that being said, you will be able to make online purchases during any 5.5 online shopping deals from e-commerce websites such as Lazada and Shopee.

In this digital age, there are plenty of ways to scam a person. Whether it be pretending to be another person, sending a parcel scam message or directing you to a fake Maybank website, scammers have found a new way of scamming even more people by having a fake app.

Just last night, Maybank announced that Maybank users who make transactions of RM5000 and above will no longer use SMS TAC anymore. This initiative will take effect from 16 February 2021 onwards and the SMS TAC will be replaced by Secure2u.

Chinese New Year is just around the corner and Maybank is expecting an increased usage in e-Angpao. As most Malaysians aren't able to return home for the festive season, the company is predicting close to 1.7 million e-Angpao transactions amounting to over RM60 million. 

Just a few hours ago, a Malaysian discovered that there is a fake Maybank website online. Unfortunately, he learnt it the hard way as he got scammed badly by going into the wrong page that looks exactly like the original.
