QUOTE(base7632 @ Nov 1 2011, 10:35 AM) Standard chartered e-saver account: What is the formula for calculating interest ? ADB= Total day end balance / Days account opened in that month Interest for the month = ADB*5%*(Days account opened in that month)/365 DAys account opened in that month = 8 I received an interest today Nov 1 of RM 53.47, appreciate if any insider could tell me if my formula is correct? I can't seem to get what they are getting. The interest of RM53.47 is part of the normal eSaver interest. Refer to table above. The 5% portion is NOT IN YET

QUOTE(ronnie @ Nov 1 2011, 09:00 AM) This is only the normal eSaver month-end interest... wait a few more days for the 4.4% portion  Thanks for the explanation. I though I kena tipu already also. Made a top up on 31 Oct, let see if I got the interest for the top up amount as well.

Some countries are easing monetary policies... do you think BNM will decrease FD rates again?
I think I better lock in for 6 months or 1 year...

QUOTE(nomen @ Oct 31 2011, 01:50 AM) According to the T&C interest payments will be calculated at the end of each calendar month and credited into the Promotion Account on the third working day of the next calendar month. 3rd working day already. Nothing happens.

SCB is a reputed bank. I'm sure they will give the interest soon. Anyway, they have a new promotion for online bill payment. 20% cash back cap at RM100. Nice way to earn extra.

SCB 5% bonus interest for esaver/supersalary has already been credited. Seems like they did a wrong calculation (more interest than i expected). standard supersalary interest=1.5% plus bonus 3.5%.

I have the SCB Supersalary 1.5% credited to my acc earlier. But now i only get around 1.29% bonus interest instead of the remaining 3.5%. Anyone here experiencing the same thing?

My eSaver account shows the "Bonus Interest - October". Correct calculation of 0.6% + 4.4% to yield 5%
Those with SuperSalary may need to call SCB CS to clarify the discrepancy. Possibly is the calculation of ADB

Anyone here experiencing the same thing? Not me, I am using supersalary but got the remaining 3.5% in yesterday. Based on my own calculation also, seems like is more than 5%.
