hi sifu. i m very noob one wan ask all sifus here one question. i planned to apply either the mbb or cimb internet banking fd. so i wanted to ask before the maturity of my first placement, when can i place extra placement? is it possible i add the placement before maturity (i know the interest i gained is based on the initial placement)
*
With M2U, you can place as many eFDs as you want. Don't have to wait for 1st placement to mature. Just go ahead and place the 2nd placement anytime. It'll be 2 different placements.

Ocbc Mega Save is extended from end of Oct to end of Nov. Anyone got any news on Uob promo in Nov?
*
Not much difference for UOB I think. Just check with the bank.
3-months at 3.4% (95% in FD, 5% in CASA or can try negotiate to put one lump sum of 10k in CASA if amount of large)
12-months at 3.55%
13-months at 3.65%

QUOTE(plumberly @ Nov 5 2013, 07:46 PM)
One thought came to my mind a few days ago. Someone raised the question about getting multiple FDs when the amount is large. Tied to the large amount is the ability to negotiate for a higher rate.

Now, the potentially good part is, in the event that one needs to prematurely withdraw some money, then one can terminate one of the FDs without loosing out interest on the rest and also still keeping the higher rate for the remaining FDs.

This is of course provided the bank does not keep track that these FDs are supposed to be a package for the higher rate and does not allow customer to partial withdraw.

Anyone has experienced this?

Cheerio.
*
If you separated your funds into say 3 FDs and you placed it at a certain promo negotiated rate then. When you decide to prematurely withdraw 1 of the FDs, the other 2 will remain no change until it matures.

This is my experience with most banks. Every FD is on its own and has its own receipt number. Withdrawing one does not affect the rest.

Hi, everyone. Newbie here... laugh.gif

Maybank offers 3% rate for 1 month fixed deposit.
If i deposited 10k for one month, is it i'm going get RM300 at the end of the month?
Anyone can help?
*
3% is per annum. Meaning if you deposit 10k for a year (12 months) then only you'll get RM300.
If you deposit for only a month, then you'll have to divide the RM300 by 12 months. Which means you will only get RM25 at the end of the 1 month.

Same goes to all other banks FD. The interest rate are all calculate per annum (p.a.).

ibg means the money will immedieately reach the other bank?

Don't think so. IBG should be GIRO, which usually takes a while to get into the other bank.
RENTAS is the one that is immediate.

When I was at UOB the other day, the girl told me about this already. You have to invest in their investments.

Like OCBC also has this deal if you invest in one of their investments then you can put funds maximum to the amount you invested into FD for 3 months at 4% or something. Something like that.

Thanks, was just about to call them asking for promo rates.

For (4), 50% in CASA can use SmartSavers account right? If SS Account interest is 2.4% then effective rate around 3.34%.

Yes, can use Smart Savers account.
If can manage to optimize the Smart Savers interest rate at 2.9%, then the effective rate is
3.59%..

But to optimize the interest rate to 2.9% very troublesome la. laugh.gif

Not really troublesome. Just need to deposit at least RM 1000 into Smart Savers
on any day of the month for 3 months.

I always optimize to 2.9%, never missed one time...  smile.gif

I was wondering can we IBG money into Smart Savers account rather than
go to OCBC bank every month?
*
If you have above 100k in CASA then can change to Premier Save Gold account, save the hassle plus slightly higher interest also. smile.gif

I'm waiting for my RM to call me back. When she does, I ask her and see if IBG is considered as deposit or not. I assume it should be.

Ah that makes sense now. Yes Internet banking GIRO has a transfer limit of 10k.

But I've not encounter any limit over the counter, unless it's TT out of the country. laugh.gif

QUOTE(bartbarb @ Feb 14 2014, 10:13 AM)
wanna ask, I'm new in this FD.
I heard that usually those that offer high interest rate one, the rate only will be counted on the last of the month. Means like I'm placing it for 1 year.
the 1st - 11 month, the rate is just the normal rate, then only on the 12th month it will be the high rate.

Is this real ?

Cause i intend to open an FD this month.
*
Some are like that. But now the latest trick is to tie your money up with CASA which has lower interest rates. So in actual fact, the effective interest calculated with your total amount invested is lower than advertised. If you see any interesting promo, chances are it's not pure straight forward FD.

Did you get any gift when you opened Mach FD account?
This Mach FD comes with a FD cert?

The selling points of the Mach FD:
(1) monthly interest
(2) 3.7%
(3) 6 months tenure

Drawbacks:
(1) not many branches
(2) need to sign-up a debit card which cost RM 8.00 per year

I didn't get any gift when I opened Mach Money Box account few weeks ago. FD all placed online so no gifts also.
No cert, everything online.

When the FD mature, it will go back to the money box acct ? So you can place another online FD for the new promo ?

Have to ask as this Mach is not similar to normal acct in banks. Thanks ! biggrin.gif
*
When I placed the Mach FD online, it doesn't give me a choice for no autorenewal, means all auto renew most likely at board rate, for how many months I dunno. Interest is credited into the money box acct monthly though.

From what I was told, if we prematurely do a partial withdrawal, there will a penalty of 50% of the interest earn on the earlier months or something like that. I guess the best is just withdraw it upon maturity date. It's online so more convenient than going to the bank. laugh.gif

QUOTE(RO Player @ Feb 25 2014, 10:42 AM)
remember those who uses heavily on internet banking & need to protect your hard earn money...please check

1) you using notebook/pc, whether is fully protected? Anti virus (AV) these days not fully protected the internet transaction..therefore Internet Security from KIS and McAfee is the solution.

2) Clear cache memory and history after each internet banking session.

3) If possible, your notebook/pc have strong password or better finger print sensor (biometrics) or retina eye scan to avoid any theft/break in.

4) Malware these days are suspicious & dangerous..especially cookies/adv/etc which hook/tag your notebook/pc which indirectly stealing information from you. Remember to install malware like spybot/anti malware.

5) Check also windows defender & firewall/third party security is on & fully protected.
Have a nice & productive day ahead & be safe.  rolleyes.gif
