Hi, for Hong Leong Mach FD 4.0%, one must open it at MACH branch only? Hong Leong branch unable to?
HL Mach FD only works for minimum placement of RM10,000 for 1 year right? After 1 year it will revert back to the current FD rate if you continue the FD tenure.

Alternatively, Hong Leong Bank also offers Islamic FD at 3.8% where the promotion ends earlier (today) than the stipulated date, due to overwhelming response. Conventional FD from HL also having a promotion of 3.75% until somewhere next month right?

(Seems like Hong Leong is more prosperous, either that or they are desperate for money.)

Would like to ask whether Hong Leong Sweet Deal FD 3.75% able to open up via Hong Leong online banking? I don't have Hong Leong account at the moment, so is it worth it to open up a saving, and then to create the FD via online banking? Or does the Sweet Deal only works for paper application, that means must do at bank and get certs.

So, the conventional FD, Sweet Deal 3.75 promo, only available via certs, be it you have a savings/current account with them or not.

Meaning, existing HLB savings/current account users with e-banking, can't make placement for this special promo FD? They must also go to over-counter?

Okay thanks, this I've known but no near branch at my area yet.

Hi, I went to a Hong Leong branch. I wanted to open a savings to facilitate the FD placement. I wanted to open the Basic Savings without annual fee (RM8), with limited transactions per month, and e-banking facility. However they told me that their Basic Savings Without Annual Fee, only comes like this:

- No ATM/Debit Card
- No E-Banking facility.

I have previously always been able to open the non-annual fee account (with ATM limited transactions & E-Banking) at other banks.

Forumers, can anyone tell me whether HL Basic Savings really works like this? I thought Bank Negara mandates all banks to carry Basic Savings, Option I and II, is that not?

Normally why banks have higher FD rates for kids? When actually most of their adult guardians piggyback on their names to get the better rates for their own?
So isn't the bachelors or single adults standing at a disadvantage?

May I know what is the current RHB promo as mentioned as expiring on Friday?
