Re: official complaint - giro transfer via maybank2u has been rejected by hlb, but informed by maybank
Most of the time I am in singapore and I manage basically all my banking online. So does my hlb amex card payments.
I did my 1st transfer on 21 mac 2008 amount rm500 and the 2nd transfer on 16 apr 2008 amount rm600.
I did all proper procedure as what I did for my other credit cards and my statement shown transaction approved and accepted by maybank.
But both rejected by hong leong bank.
When I return from singapore on 20 april, I receive an advice from maybank stated the giro was returned by hlb due to funds cannot be applied. Return reason: invalid account number.
Surprisingly, I did not receive a single letter from hlb regarding the rejection. But I only receive letter and letter of reminder to warn me of overdue payment by hlb. Perhaps that's all hlb is great of chasing money. As if hlb did not even know I sent money.
Without delay, I made calls and calls and calls to hlb and maybank.
After my investigation, I found that is hlb rejected my payment, but I has nothing wrong with maybank or even my log in procedure.
Some of your hlb operator asked me to try again, non of them can answer me is the 15 or 16 digit problem or what, did they open any maybank website to check? Or help me? They don't care and ask me to call them back if problem occur and not giving me their direct line.
So every time I called I will have to listen very long the pre recorded steps, and wait till I can have the selection to choose to talk to one of the officer. Then I will have to explain and explain again and again my problem, and they will ask millions of question to verify my identity.
Only after the forth time, your officer encik yusri seek help from his colleague and finally he called me after 4 hours to tell me I can use 15 digit for my maybank2u.com giro transfer. (Although the instruction given by maybank2u was a 16 digit.) he asked me to try... (Which means he is not confirm) I tried... Result... Unknown.
I did that giro transfer immediately unsure it went through or not.
I am very upset with:
1. Why is the reject not being informed by hlb to me? I only get to know when maybank send me a letter to tell me the money has been returned by hlb. The worst is it happened twice.
2. Why is hlb did not have a signal to show such rejection to customer? And all hlb know is only "overdue payment", "overdue payment" to warn me.
3. Is the account number of my amex 16 digit or 15 digit? Please make me clear now.
4. Why only the forth time someone can finally give me an answer? Then your other operators must have not be qualify to handle problems. Why is your operators are not being trained to handle such case? Why not the first call, my problem will be solved?
5. Perhaps your operator required some time to investigate, but why is slower than myself? Or they don't even care and just let me do all their job?
6. Are you using this way to earn extra interest from me?
I may not be interested of weather your procedure required your party to keep me informed in regards to the payment rejection. But in view to the customer's knowledge, I found the rejection should be highlighted by hlb to me and not by maybank.
This is a very simple procedure that made very bad reputation and impression on me and my friends to hlb. It is a shameful case that your staff did not know how to handle. It also shown that you all only know how to tell people "overdue payment" but never you notice there is another error happened within or behind the case.
The delay result my two giro transfer cost me processing fees. I in need a pay back from hlb.
The delay result my interest is being charged by hlb. I in need a deduction from it.
I am very disappointed with your service attitude and I view this very serious issue as it has given me extremely unpleasant experience.

At Seremban Branch today. Most counters are free, staff are just chit chatting. But one counter is opened for hire purchase and personal loans. Wonder why there is only one counter for these transactions and getting delayed. Other counters are not mobilised and really free.
Tawau HLB staff counter and Customer Service is bad. After change some staff the attitude is bad and lazy, will never explain more detail, no passion at all. Extremely bad service and rude!
I called your idiot hotline and waited for like 10min . Wait for 10 whole min also never got ppl assit me on my problem . What is wrong is your hotline customer service ?
Firstly, Hong Leong Bank, Taman Melawati KL branch's bank personnel are not aware or properly informed by their own superiors/top management with regards to the new ruling stated in the Companies Act 2016 endorsed by the government agency 'Suruhanjaya Syarikat Malaysia' or 'SSM', which allows a single director of a local Malaysian private limited company (Or it is called 'Sendirian Berhad' in Malay Language) to open a current account. Plus, the service provided at this branch is consistently very poor and unfriendly, refer below for further details.
I am a single director of a new private limited / Sendirian Berhad company and the company was newly registered this year September, and I was trying to open a new current account at Hong Leong Bank, specifically Taman Melawati KL Branch. Back in late September 2018, I requested for the application forms to open the new current account but the bank teller was not satisfying in terms of her service and she simply gave me the application forms without informing me anything else.
Then, back in early October 2018, I came prepared with all the necessary documents required for the application, only to be told by the bank teller there that a private limited company must have two directors in order to open a current account. As such, I have tried to tell the bank tellers that I will call up my company secretary in regards with the new ruling of Companies Act 2016 so that company secretary could explain to the bank tellers. Unfortunately, the bank tellers replied to me in a very rude manner, exclaiming "What else is there to explain?". After hearing such a rude reply from them, I got fed up with their service, took back my documents and left the bank immediately.
As such, I would strongly implore the top management of Hong Leong Bank to look into the bank tellers working at this branch and mete out the necessary action towards them, especially informing them about the new ruling from SSM to allow other future potential customers who are also a single director in a private limited company to open a bank account. This is highly unacceptable since this ruling came from a government agency and by right all bank must adhere to this ruling without fail. Last but not least, the service provided by this bank's branch must improve or else it will not be good for the bank's image.
Pls can you ask your agent to get loss
