I am using it, and it pay me 2.65%-2.75% p.a every month of my balance.
However, to archive this, you will require to credit RM500 per month in 12 month time to step up the interest. (with no withdrawal)
The RM500 incremental every month is based on your average balance in a calendar month, so to ensure it will entitle a step up, it will be better if you credit rm500 in 1st of every month. Or else you will need to calculate the amount needed for credit in order to have average balance incremental of rm500 comparing to average balance from previous month
once your 12 month step up is complete, your account will be permanently having 2.65%-2.75% base interest rate count for daily for any balance you have in account (no withdrawal limitation, can withdraw anytime)
I have completed my step up on beginning of 2014 and now it pay me 2.65%-2.75% p.a every month of my balance.
PS:
If you worry about the annual fee of the debit card when you opening an account, which will drop you effective interest rate.
What I do is I open a Basic Saving Account with No Annual fee first. then open this Bonus Saving Account and request to link to the debitcard/ATM card on the Basic Saving Account without annual fee. Just need to ensure every 12 month to make some transfer to the basic saving account to keep the account active.
Most branch people will said cannot link, but try to ask them to check with their manager, because there is no black and white state this account could not link to any card. It took me some time when they finally agree that can be link.
*I am not sure if there a new TnC state that Bonus Saver account cannot link to Basic Saving Account anymore.
see attached for the step up calculation:
