no way you can get it from the seller that easily mainly becos of the lag time from sell-HQ-buy lag time.

Units are opened into the system. The sales at the seller 's branch must be accepted by HQ, even if the buyer is standing side by side at same branch also no guarantee can get.

I tried that before. He was selling at the next counter, and i was just standing there seeing the counter girl keep trying to key in buy orders. Due to the lag time, 1 got RM1k only whereas that fellow sold 20k!.

got chicken feed, RM700

today went to MBB to collect pelajar mas money for my son. As usual i bring some money just try top up ASM/AS1M/ASW.

must be the lucky timing when trying to top up my ASW 2020. surprised she told me got Rm1000 all in 1 shot. I quickly told her try another RM2000, again got it. Then 1 emty all my wallet try the remainder RM900, alas no more she said......

nowadays whenever i am at the bank doing anything must surely bring some extra money try top up....who knows may be lucky like today! Last week i got RM300 also for ASM.

i oso tried all 3, got some AS1M and a little of ASW2020.

Earlier i did not think about trying to top up is actually a good method besides the long queue at launching of new units.
Sekali dapat, now keep wanna do it again and again.

I think is RHB, that time (just before and after G election) was the best, I dapat till abit “worried” but still I put in whatever cash I had in hand then. At one of the visits, met a neighbour who was there busy selling his ASW2020, ASM etc, and he asked me “why u are buying, now people are all selling !” (preparing for possible change of govt….)


Take some never mind.
I checked my yellow slips, the time were 14:42, 14:43,14:44, and also 14:45:19 , must be just slightly earlier than you.
Today I may go to mbb again and try after this.

i got RM500 for AS1M - time on yellow slip 09:47.

Is there a max limit?, above 50k they still allow me to top up, may be 100k I don’t know…

No la, I don’t go solely just to top up ASM, where got so much time…….. That RM500 I got it when I was there to bank in a cheque.
But if it seems rather easy to strike nowadays, I don’t mind finding excuses to go to bank more often…
For the fixed price ASM,AS1M and ASW2020 I would think your money is very very safe la, is unwritten guaranteed. How could you lose money on these?? Just buy la, no worry. People are queing up to buy and you worry you cannot sell and get back your capital?

anybody going to try top up tomorrow morning? i have something to do at CIMB, will try there.

THere is a promotion at RHB, apparently it started from 1.8.2013 and ends this month. I just got to know it today when i went to RHB!
For those of you who have bought the ASM/ASG etc fund min 1000 units this month, you get 1 entry for lucky draw.
Better go buy from RHB.

Are you sure no seller for ASM? i just got RM2000 x 3 on 29.10.13 for that ASM

if you key in RM1000 buy and at that point in time only RM500 available, you wasted your chance, the teller tell you no unit available.
your buy "unsuccessful"

If you keyed in RM500 buy and you got it, sure you wanna buy more, thats' why you see the RM500 + 500 +....

Pro and cons for big amount attempt and small amount attempt.

Big amount attempt - less chance to get, for 2 reasons
1)not many people wanna sell what more big amount.
2)Bank teller usually lazy to help you bid repeatedly by reducing your bids again and again. If you start with RM2000, do you think she will try for you 5 x eg failed at RM2000, then try at RM1000, 500, 300, and 100?

the gd thing about it is if you strike, you get to buy a large sum then.


Small amount biddings eg RM100 has better success rate, is easier to get.But if you start at RM2000 bidding,
i doubt the teller actually tries for you at RM100 even though she tells you she had tried.

the bad thing about small amount bidding is even if there is a big amount sell on the other side eg RM20000 , how much can you grab with each attempt at RM100? at most you get to buy 3 or 4 times only, the units would have been all snapped up by then.

i dont have insider info. but i believe if there are 10 sellers, each selling RM500 all at the same time and you are the first person to bid for RM5000 you will get it.
If your first attempt is bidding only RM2000, you should also get it. I dont think the system requires a perfect seller-buyer match. But i do know you just cant buy direct from that seller as i was standing side by side with a seller over the next counter the other day. It all goes into the system and then we buy from the system. yeah i think the system will pool whatever units sold together and sell whatever units available .

we need luck to bid exactly at the time when there is adequate unit available.

i dont understand what you mean.

For me if i want to buy RM1000, and no 1000units avaialable, and the teller manage to buy RM800 for me, i would be very happy to accept.

i agree with ronnie that ASNB should change the system to sell whatever units available to the buyer rather than the eaxact amount "ordered"
then the teller need to key in only 1 time for each buyer, save energy and time.

i think it only happens if the bank teller knows you well. and willing to do the 'extra' to help you buy.
They had done that for me before , passed the cash to her, tell her to try buy whenever she is free,but not anymore.

Usually they wont take that risk. in case payment does not come in time, her balance wil be left hanging,and cant close for the day.
It's more and more strict now, hard to do the back door way now.

wow, getting RM10,000 and another RM50,000 in a day is really.....unbelievable!

And next few weeks can get it to RM100,000? I am shocked you can get that for nonbumi quota!

my books are left with the bank clerk. I never withdraw before, so just wanna ask.

Do they need our IC, or thumbprint to make withdrawal from the ASM,AS1M or ASW2020 book? i think they sure need signature on withdrawal form, but not sure about the above 2 extra...

PS: I wonder if that guy who said he left his book with the bank clerk, i wonder how much he managed to top up so far...

thanks, feel better now.

i m feeling lucky, got 20k in 2 days.

bank teller at CIMB, penang

yeah today i got some also. From CIMB at 11.37am
