I hereby reconfirm the above rates for the 3 & 12 months FD Promos are correct as of 7 November 2012. However the minimum Fresh Fund is RM10K (which has always been the case for UOB FD Promo).

it is not FD rate. Example if you have RM300k loan, and if BLR is 6.6% and bank offer -2.4%, so the interest bank charge is 4.2%. But if you money say RM20k to dump into that current account, bank will give you back 4.2% for that RM20k. So, it is indirectly 4.2% p.a. Am i right? smile.gif

In that case you better ask bank charged you 6.6% so you can earn 6.6% or better still ask for BLR +2.4% for your flexi loan

I think ngaisteve1 is talking about instead of placing 20k in FD earning 3.x%, might as well use the money to cover up the flexi loan account Interest at 4.2%.
His rm20k "yields" better in flexi account than FD account. A sensible move indeed.

ngaisteve1 just hit the right note.. nod.gif

Musical chairs player should fall into two categories:

1. Short term players who may need the funds for other investment or needs.
2. Long term players with almost no outstanding loans or debts or temporary parking of funds.

It does not make sense if depositors with outstanding debts/loans concentrate on FD solely for the returns if they have outstanding debts with banks. Its just common sense though it was not properly phrased.. nod.gif

For those with flexi mortgages, its better to deposit in it rather than FD.. good thinking by ngasteve1.. rclxms.gif
