For 1 year 3.6% - Affin Bank and UOB until 31st Aug 2011 ( Minimum RM25K )
RHB got slightly higher but need to deposit X amount into Savings or Current Acct.

Thanks for the info.

The 1 year FD 3.8% is for Flexi FD right? For the Flexi FD, interest is credited monthly into Flexi One Account. therefore need to open another account and must check if you need to maintain minimum amount in the Flexi One Account to avoid service charge.

But what caught my attention is the Junior FD where the rate is 3.9% for 12 months and 4.5% for 2 or 3 years. Offer until 30th Nov 2011.

As for fresh fund, yes withdraw it and then deposit it back next day smile.gif Some banks will even allow you to withdraw as "cash" and then deposit it back as fresh fund. Ask your branch.

I just called HLB CS and the guy confirmed to me for the 3.8% :

1. Need to open FlexiOne Account since interest is credited monthly into it. If you don't have one now, a new account will be opened for you.
2. The Flexi One Account is Similar to One Account where you need to maintain average RM1K to avoid RM5 service charge.
