Yes, FD gives higher rates (3-3.8%) but cannot withdraw. This M2U is a savings account (can withdraw anytime) but gives 2.1% pa! Isn't this the best savings account in Malaysia?

I actually dont understand how to differentiate the interest earning between savings & FD...

For example, if i save 5000 in FB with 3%pa and the withdrawal/maturity date are actually 1 month (rm5000 min 1 month) so how much i can get after 1 month?
Compared to savings lets say 5000 with 2%pa how much i can get after 1 month?

My confusion is, isnt "pa" means "1 year" ???

5k as FD, pa is 3% , pa = 12 months

5000 x 3% = 150 / 12 = RM12.5 per month.

you can either choose to add the interest into the FD which called add-on, meaning that 1st Feb you start with 5000 FD, after 1 month, 1st of March your FD will be 5012.50 x 3%

So its actually the same whether savings or FD eh?
But how come i see my savings interest when credited its like shit near to RM0 ?? where as if i put in FD i do see the interest montly
