TO WHOM IT MAY CONCERN
I'm making a complaint regarding the above insurance which is still charging me through my Ambank Bonuslink Credit Card.

One of the officer called me and invited me to join in their Smart Partnership Programme in which i had rejected the offer. However, I was shocked to find out in my credit card statement that they had continuously charge me for TWO months under the programme which i had declined...

The costumer service is terrible, very poor attitude. Your staff did't respond nor settled the problems even after we had call many times and sent many mails.

It was an impossible task to activate the digital token, due to the following situations that occurred :
1. it took more than 300 seconds to receive the code, so it will expire. As such we were not able to enter the correct code.

2. although...

I'm making a complaint regarding the above insurance which charged me through my credit card. I’ve been calling AmBank regarding this issue. The staff said, it was purchased through telephone and conversations recorded under "Smart Partnership Moto Kuala Lumpur”.

Dear Sir/Madam,
I am writing in the email to let you know that one of your Customer service/loan agent named: Bhoovinder was being rude and harrased me by calling me non stop back to back on non office hours/weekends in order to respond to his WhatsApp msg. On top of that, he reached out to my brother and threatened to end the process of loan application if i do not answer his call or reply his msg immediately. Why am i being harrased like this instead of be given time to respond? This is unacceptable and the reason why i am not going to proceed with further steps on applying loan or being an Ambank customer for the fear of ill treatment from your agents.
Kindly educate your agents on how to treat customers.

To Whom It May Concern
I would like to log an official complaint at one of your Fund Manager at Kampar Ambank Branch. Her name is Ms Liew and contact number is[protected]. She is very unprofessional and unethical to call herself an investment adviser. My mother by the name of Hang Yee Looi was one of her customer, she has been approaching her to invest in all sort of different fund for many years. Non of the fund has make any profit, generally we unable to discontinue the fund otherwise we would lost even greater. I have been talking to Ms Liew for many times since 2020, that my mother age has already been like 75 yo, she is not supposed to take up any even a low-risk investment fund, the money that we give her is for her saving and usage, I do not mind Ms Liew to help put that into fixed deposit or Amanah Saham which I have made very clear with her. Last year I have called to Ms Liew again and even personally went to the Kampar Ambank Branch to confront her as I noticed similar fund investment happened again. My mother personally told me that she always signed a lot of documents, she did not even know what are those documents all about, she did not even know whether did she transfer any of her personal saving to any place or not. She is illiterate, that is the reason why I told Ms Liew very clearly that any signature of investment must be sign in front of me. She did listen and when ahead again and again. When I confronted Ms Liew I demanded her to list out all the funds, fixed deposit etc that is under my mother name and joined name with me at Ambank, she has provided me the list, after sometime my mother shown me another investment letter from Ambank, this investment account wasn’t at the list she provided me earlier. Again when I called her why this account was missed out, she given the excuses that this one was because it is under individual account so she need to get consent from my mother. Isn’t in the first place when my mother and I was there in the branch, both my mother and I already consented to disclosed everything to me and why is she deliberately holding back such information? In the recent case on 4 Oct 2022, Ms Liew has giving me a call by phone, unfortunately I couldn’t pick up her call because I’m in meeting, then later at night when I call my mother, she told me that Ms Liew said I did not picked up her called, because of one of the fund has expired she need urgently to put that into another fund. Imagine an old lady at 75 yo rush all the way to the bank using her old bicycle just to signed something that again she do not understand. This is totally unacceptable, is Ms Liew or Ambank hold full responsibility on my mother safeness? Is she going to hold full responsible if any unfortunate event like accident happen to my mother? Why is the rush for this transfer and why it is require to settle on the spot? To me, at least, it shown that Ms Liew acknowledged with our previous conversation that all the new investment need my consent and present, that is the reason she bother to give me a call, but why only one missed call? We have been talking few times thru Whatapps previously as well, why not leave a message or voice message to ask me to call back urgently? Isn’t this a deliberately act to hide something or wanted to divert the excuses. Where is the bank code of ethic?
I am taking this matter seriously, I am considering her no different like a scammer but hide behind a good bank name like yourself. I am demanding an explanation from your bank on why the branch manager is allowing his/her staff doing such an unethical thing. I am also wanted to have your internal compliance team to check on Ms Liew with regards whether did she happen to mislead my mother to transfer any unauthorised fund to her personal account. I am demanding to restrict her from handling my mother profile. My tolerance and patient at her way o[censored]nethically serve the customers has reached my limit. I’m not sure how many more victims has she cheated, I am definitely have faith and confidence with Ambank management to settle this and provide me a full explanation. I will leave it to your good officer to start your internal probing.

I demand a reply from Ambank within 7 working days starting from 6 Oct 2022 on the next cause of action, failing to do so I am not hesitate to further escalate to report to BNM and police on the unethical customer service. Thanks.

Hi,
On the 23rd of February 2022, I made a call to ambank customer service to get know further detail clarification of my housing loan interest. A lady officer answered my call and she said she is not assigned to deal with housing loan yet she will arrange for a call back from the respective department. She also did asked what was my issue and explained to her. She said I will receive a call back from the respective department in 2 days which means on the 24/02/2022 or 25/02/2022. Today is already 28th of Feb 2022, I have yet to receive a call back from ambank. I need a call back from ambank to solve my issue. My name Rupashni Vatumalay and my contact number [protected].

Your contact center is not able to advise proper procedure for fd redemption, i have been sending written instructions as requested and every time after submission, they will change the requirements happily and never get my request done. I will write to the press about the stress we are trapped at other country and unable to even transfer our own money to our own account due to AMbank changing requirements all the times and making things difficult for customers. I feeling very sick about the way your bank handle customer request.
