Maybank iPad2 Event

It was Tuesday and it was my off day. The initial idea was just to go the the bank to settle some stuff at Pavilion. Yes I go to Maybank Pavilion since I can straight chill after that.


So while I was wondering around the mall I noticed something interesting. The queue was long so I didn't bother to asked what it was about. It started at around 6pm. By the look of it people would already figure it out what it was all about. It was a private event by Maybank and they did it at Godiva.


Then I told myself "Hey, I am Maybank customer, why am I not invited for this event". Probably they did but I was too busy to noticed it. Hahaha. I already ordered one for myself through online. Yeah I wanted this baby too. The iPad2. Since Malaysia always seem to be low in shortage, I had to order it online.


It already 745pm and the queue is still long but not as long as earlier. I decided to approach the counter and asked what it was about. The lady just inform me I can still buy it if I am a Maybank credit card holder. Sweet! I just straight away took out my card and register for it. The next thing I know I was given my invoice for my iPad already


The best part for it is I don't have to line up. I was told to just come back before the event end. How cool was that? No queue. True enough when I came back all I need to do is just pay for it.


Maybank and in calibration with epicentre Pavilion offered some door gift as well. It came with a free screen protector, RM20 cash voucher for purchase at epicentre, RM88 iPad training and epicentre membership which give 10% discount on 3rd party product. Oh ya, I forgot to mention about the free drinks and chocolates too served by Godiva.


I have my iPad. I've done the screen protector (free service by epicentre) and I used up the RM20 voucher to buy the iPad casing.


Everything is complete.

P/S: I cancelled the online purchase immediately after. For info, your credit card will be still be charged for a merchant fee regardless even if the amount is charge in RM when you purchase apple online. The charges are from the bank and not apple. Such a rip off.
