oh dear...think i lost out on the nego part and free gifts...because when i tried to nego with them for better rates for 12months 4.01%, the counter girl told me only sum more than 500k can nego...and the free gift were only a passport holder and a sling pouch...

hmm.gif 4.11% for ur part was really good. maybe i should go and premature after 1month and put as a new deposit again....arghhh
*
In fact, before I go, I din have high hope on 4.11%...I am fine with 4.06%...then when I ask for more, the teller said need to nego with manager... I tired (no loss mah), and to my surprise I got it! It is great.

@magika, do u have to nego on your every visit, or they will honour the previous rate you gotten before?

Thanks for updates.
Just checked, yay! It is in. The exact amount as I pre-calculated. Great! rclxms.gif
Now, I have forgotten, If I withdraw all the balance, will I still get 2.75% interest for January?

Mine too, total returns is 4.75% (maybe more if also calculate the compounded int), thanks to the person who brought this product here, sorry can't remember who.
For me I already withdrew my money  on 2-Jan-2013 and only left a few hundreds.
*
It was eugenecctan who shared this promo to us here. Big thanks to him again. thumbup.gif
Mine calculated as 4.81%. Not bad.
Oh you are fast, I am a bit kiasu to wait for the bonus interest credited first before withdrawal. tongue.gif

Actually I was also curious on how the Manager can promise me extra 0.1%. On collecting my FD cert, the Manager was quite embarassed to inform me that HQ has rejected the extra. Ha..ha  nevermind no extra as all along I have already doubt it.
I was waiting to see who really figured it out. Question everything ... you are good..
*
So, it is back to 4.11% for FD and 0.1% for introducer incentive, right?
Just wanna see BR's threshold... laugh.gif

Wow, thanks for the sharing...by putting upfront interest back as FD will yield 4.03% p.a. overall. (But need to visit twice, right?)
The deals are getting hotter. drool.gif

Anyway, I have committed my fund in Mach FD 4.00% and BR FD 4.11%. All good for the time being. laugh.gif
If I have more fund, will most likely go back to Mach or BR as I have acct and i-banking facility all setup.
Unless it is much more to justify the new customer/acct/i-banking opening process. sweat.gif

Bank Rakyat all the way then, but no PIDM tongue.gif

To me, AmBank is the best for good ol' no-fancy-T&C FDs with PIDM protection, 3.25% for 12-months e-FD. smile.gif

+100 on BR. thumbup.gif
With it's non-promo high interest rate. ==> One of the best FD returns.
Your money can continue to roll with high interest rate. ==> Save the effort/visit to transfer the fund from 1 bank to another.
And interest is crediting into SA every month. ==> Advance use of interest: put back as FD, IBG to other bank or ATM withdraw as your monthly pocket money, u decide. laugh.gif

I still don't see what so special about the Mach, if I'm not wrong normal banking can do pretty much anything that Mach does(doesn't count the FD part), not to mention very limited branches can apply it.
*
To take the 4% promo Mach FD, you'll first need a Mach Money Box account.
You can only open this account from Mach branch.
Thereafter you can go to any HLB branch and deposit your fund (or even deposit your cheque using Cheque Deposit machine) into this Money Box account.
Then you can use HL Connect online banking to place Mach FD by using the fund in your Money Box acct.
Interest is crediting into Money Box acct on monthly basis.
There is free IBG option, you can IBG your interest into other bank or withdraw at ATM, or place as new Mach FD.

Hmm i wonder why all sifus here dont put in HLB mach 4% for 12 mths? Other banks offer quite competitive rate like ocbc 4.5 but only 3 mths. Any downside for hlb mach?
*
I am into HL Mach 4% FD. Low maintenance (no need to move fund every 3mth). Interest credited monthly. thumbup.gif
I guess the only issue is the location. Mach branches are only in Klang Valley.
Some may not be here. The location is good for me.
