Re: CIMB Malaysia and Singapore
SushiFan,
When you visited the branch, did you ask for the TAC on device option? Or maybe a mobile is required to initially register? I don't remember if that was the case, but the 'TAC on device' option is surely there when making online transactions through clicksonline and if I remember correctly I had to pay for getting the TAC generating device. |
Re: CIMB Malaysia and Singapore
CIMB stopped offering TAC devices more then 1 year ago.
They gave no explanation. |
Re: CIMB Malaysia and Singapore
Strange, haven't heard about that one.
But my device worked fine yesterday. See also: Welcome to CIMB Clicks Malaysia No word about the device not being available. |

CIMB works in mysterious ways :sneaky:

Re: CIMB Malaysia and Singapore
Gunnar, I have not yet visited a branch office. At least for the initial stage is a mobile phone required. I don't know whether multiple options are available once the initial registration has been completed.

Re: CIMB Malaysia and Singapore
To update my experience with CIMB Clicks: I was able to register my Malaysian mobile phone number at an ATM machine. And then able to proceed with my online registration for CIMB Clicks. An SMS was sent with a verification code.
After my registration had completed was I given two options for future confirmation codes. Either have a confirmation code sent by SMS each time when you need it. Or have "TAC on device" which means that you need to run an app on a tablet or mobile phone. The bank does not offer a specific device which can generate TAC codes. |

CIMB works in strange ways indeed. After writing to my CIMB 'Relationship Manager'on Dec 22 to get some clarifications on this, he responded that the TAC generating device has NOT been cancelled. But then again, this may only mean that you can continue to use the one you got. Anyway, I now installed the mobile app as well, thanks for the info regarding this. |

One remark related to CIMB Clicks: you need to have a mobile phone with Malaysian phone number as they send a PIN code for each action as SMS message. I didn't have a mobile phone number yet and was thus unable to sign up for CIMB Clicks.

Re: CIMB Malaysia and Singapore
Ian, I agree with you. Once you have set it up, using a Malaysian mobile phone number, can you switch to a non-Malaysian phone number. My comment was directed towards the initial setup of CIMB Clicks. That initial step seems not possible if you don't have a Malaysian mobile phone number.

Re: CIMB Malaysia and Singapore
we don´t have a proper Banking in MY Thread (or i did not find it), so i use this.
As you might have noticed it is very difficult to get a proper credit card here. Some banks refuse foreigners completely, even with MM2H visas. Any success stories from MM2H holders with premier or preferred status in terms of getting a credit (not debit) card with no fuss? |

Re: CIMB Malaysia and Singapore
My wife and I are on MM2H have our Fixed Deposit (FD) accounts with CIMB and now have CIMB Preferred Visa credit cards. We just needed to open a separate FD account with a sum of money equal to the credit limit agreed. Very simple and no hassle at all.
