FD is suppose to be safe and sound with no risk involve, the problem is are you willing to take the risk?

why should u try something u r not familiar with just because there's a promotion? wink.gif

after 1 month i will get 5000 x 0.0275 x 30/365 = 11.30

auto renewal,

i will get 5011.3 x 0.0275 x 60/365 = 22.65

or

i will get 5011.3 x 0.0275 x 30/365 =11.33???
*
if auto renewal and u credit into your principal

the 2nd one cos you are still on monthly basis thus only 30/365

You have to walk-in and negotiate with the branch manager.
1. It won't follow the promotional rate given to you when you opened the FD
2. You will loss partial of the interest earned

For interest that have already been paid out, they will deduct from your principal amount to pay for the penalty.
*
Thanks for the info, do we have the option to put in the interest paid every 6 months back into the principal?

In order to get the promotional rate, you must make your FD placement at the branch.

you have experience with their promo fd?

its not necessary to have a saving account with them right?i can just walk in and deposit for FD?

What they do with your FD when it is matured?(ie. after 6 months)

Okay here are the T&C for the OCBC promotional rate posted yesterday.

Minimum amount RM10K and promotion period 21st March to 25th March only. You got 5 days to get 3.9% for 9 months FD at OCBC.

No other conditions I were told.
*
3.6 or 3.9?

hmm heck think i would just go for ambank 5 yrs, kinda troublesome wanna move the money here n there wink.gif

depends on your perspective, considering AS1M pays 5.xx only this is like the next best thing u can have. U might not get 3.9 with OCBC anymore 9 months down the road

unless of course you might need the money, for me its extra so might as well lock it in. biggrin.gif

@kucingfight, apparently no...but if u r looking at 6 months OCBC is better @ 3.9% for 9 months

Yea it's the 6months 3.28% that I applied for.
But now everyone is mentioning about the OCBC 3.9% for 9months.
If I know it earlier should have gone for the OCBC.
3months longer is nothing compare to the rate offered. Sigh!

direct deposit if you bring cheque over?

i thought it takes 2-3 working days to clear the cheque?

Just went to AMbank to enquire about their 4.68% pa. Here is what I found.

1. 60 months tenure
2. interest to be paid out every 6 months (4.68% pa)
3. in the event customer uplift the FD before the maturity date, only 2.34% pa interest will be paid out. The higher interest paid previously would be deducted from the principal amount.

4. Customer can choose to open a saving account with AMbank , of which the interest of the FD will be credited into every 6 months.

Hmm.. not a bad deal..

hey there, thanks for the info

say if i deposit 10k and uplift it after 2 years, they would have paid me RM 936. How much will they deduct from my principal?RM468?

what good rate?pls know ur own product better b4 selling it or u knew it but still want to con ur customers. I did a rough calculation that showed even if the projected 5.5% is given, the ROI is less than 4% per year

Depends on which products.
if you buying banks offered product sure is little as 5.5%.

Mid term and long term is different story.
4.5x your capital upon maturity.
*
yes?just show me one good example.

don't need 4.5x, 2x is more than enough.

is fact. not example.
saving for 6th years term. yearly 10k
yearly will enjoy cash and dividend around 1.8k. until 35th years if u not withdraw capital.
for simply calculation
this is already 2x times.

excluded compounding interest and others added interest. it will be 4.5x
*
2 words for u...bull shit

10k the plan only pay u 12.5% once and for all, then the 10k will just sit there waiting for durian to drop

4.5x, whats is the ROI per year?don't avoid my question, what is the % per annum/year on avg? rolleyes.gif

So the condition is must be 10 months FD, then only you will get the interest rate of 4.38% right?

the other condition is the Money must from other bank , wondering when is the due date for this promotion?

I don't quite get it, supposingly a 4.38% for 10months is highly viable than a 3.38% for 9 months isn't it? 
For this, we are ought to withdraw our FD money upon maturity duration for 10 months right?
*
read again, PBB only giving u 4.38% for the 10th month, not for 10 months
