WHEN Muhammad Nur Amin Mohd Zaibrib, a 37-year-old father of three, received a call from Maybank congratulating him for winning RM1mil under Maybank’s Mencari MAE-llionaire campaign, his life transformed overnight.
Upon receiving the news, Amin and his wife broke down in tears of joy.
“I could hardly believe my incredible fortune. I use Maybank’s MAE App daily for both my personal and business needs, but I never thought I could win RM1mil just by banking on the app.
“I am extremely grateful for this timely windfall from Maybank that came just when I needed it the most,” he said.
A Maybank customer of 17 years, Amin took the brave decision to quit his job as a Royal Malaysia Air Force officer during the height of the pandemic to be closer to his family in Ipoh.
To support his family, he started a distributor business for household cleaning goods but struggled to fulfil monthly financing repayments and outstanding payments to suppliers.
Amin plans to use his newfound winnings to expand his business and take it to greater heights. To support him in making informed financial decisions, a Maybank relationship manager will be on hand to provide tailored financial advice suited to his needs.
In a similar story, Mohd Faizul Husin, a 50-year-old site engineer from Kuantan, shared his joy after learning that he had won RM1mil through Maybank’s Mencari MAE-llionaire campaign.
“As the sole breadwinner of a family of seven, I have always prioritised managing my finances wisely. “Winning this RM1mil feels like a dream come true and I am beyond grateful to Maybank for this life-changing opportunity.
“The MAE App has been my go-to for all my banking needs and I often recommend it to my colleagues for its ease and convenience,” he said.
For Faizul, this windfall is a chance to secure his family’s future and fulfill a deeply personal dream. Part of his winnings will go towards funding specialised therapy for his eight-year-old autistic son, who has yet to be able to speak.
“Speech therapy is essential for my son, but it is also very expensive. This win gives me the means to provide him with the best care and resources so he can thrive,” he said.
For more than two decades, Maybank has been with Faizul in every step of his financial journey. Starting from his very first job where he opened a salary account with Maybank, Faizul has benefitted from the bank’s comprehensive suite of financial offerings including housing loan, credit cards and savings accounts.
“Maybank has been my trusted financial partner through so many milestones in life. This blessing reminds me of how much value they bring to their customers and I am beyond grateful to Maybank for this incredible opportunity,” he added.
Running from now until Feb 28, the Mencari MAE-llionaire campaign has rewarded two lucky Maybank customers with RM1mil each and is currently on the lookout for the final winner of the RM1mil prize.
