Maybank recently announced that it's offering Flood Relief Assistance to ease the financial burden of its individual and SME/corporate customers who are affected by the floods in several states in the country.

The Flood Relief Assistance is designed to address the challenges the flood victims are facing and will include, amongst others, deferment of financing/loan payment, a reduction in monthly instalment or extension of repayment tenure.

For convenience, customers can apply for the Flood Relief Assistance via two (2) easy channels, as follows:

  • Email to floodrelief@maybank.com providing name/company name, IC number/Business Registration, contact number, type of loan/product (e.g Mortgage, Hire Purchase, Term Loan Financing);  Vehicle number (for Hire Purchase)
  • Visit or call any of our branches, SME Centres, Business Banking Centres or Auto Finance Centres (whichever is relevant) nationwide.
All applications will be evaluated on a case-by-case basis. 


Besides, the Bank is also offering a waiver of fees and charges for selected services...


... such as replacement of debit card, ATM cards or cheque books lost or damaged during the floods. It'll also provide a waiver for late charges for credit cards. 

Etiqa, Maybank Group's insurance arm, has also put in place a hassle-free and expeditious claim process for its insurance policyholders and takaful certificate holders, with no forms or supporting documents required. To submit a claim, the respective policyholders or certificate holders can:

Maybank Group's primary concern at this moment is the wellbeing of the community impacted by the floods. It hopes that the Flood Relief Assistance will help alleviate the burden of its customers and allow them to focus on the safety of their families and rebuilding their lives. 

In addition to the Flood Relief Assistance, Maybank continues to make available Repayment Assistance to support its customers who are impacted by the on-going Covid-19 pandemic and has extended the application deadline to 30 June 2021.
