If 0.5% then no need hassle i think.But lets say this month i deposit 200k in ocbc 3.65% for half year.Then when the period end and they renew my fd for 3.3% i guess i need to find another bank for best rate right?

0.5% difference can be significant if your principal amount is big and also significant to pensioners who live on interests.

4% versus 3.5% is 0.5% difference

Example Bank X, 3 mth 3.5%,
            Bank  Y, 3 mths 4.0%

(RM10,000 X 0.5/100) X 3/12 (quarter) = RM15 difference

RM 100,000, difference is RM 150

RM1,000,000 difference is RM1500
