The one haur went for is this branch. I find the location very suffocating...that's why I'm thinking of the one in Bayan Lepas. But so far no one tried that out yet. Anyone?
Thanks for the info!
I only used Jelutong branch so far as it is nearer to me and don't have to go to Magazine Road.

I guess you are still new at this, but you should cut and paste and then only post all your replies in a single post.

General, I did read your article "The Best Savings Account in Malaysia" before I posted my question.
I just tried to find out how old is premier saving account in OCBC. After reading your article, now I figure out
we need to understand the bank deposit products first before go to banks, we cannot always count on the RMs.
Thanks so much for your efforts and valuable articles.  notworthy.gif

RHB customer service told me he received email about this FD promo extension when I was
in their branch late afternoon yesterday (Friday), his superior also confirmed this promo.

When did you check with RHB staff and helpdesk?

Did you get the gifts over few times deposit ? They used to have lap top bag, school bag to give away.

I split my FDs, i heard dangerous/attracting attention if put big amount in 1 cert...That 50k refers to 1 deposit. To negotiate rate, usually they would ask total how much , then i tell them xxx and they allow me in lots of 50k. Below 50k i get board rate. I got 4.25% for 24m and 4.7% for 61m.

They dont give me gift for every deposit. i go often , if ask every time with every Fd, shy also.
But after 2 or 3 deposits if they dont automatically give me, i will ask. whenever i ask they will give.

I never get bags so far. Towels, manicure set of different types, T shirt, but i now mostly prefer pens, esp the parker pen set, i think buy outside maybe RM80 and can give to others as gift. been with BR >10 years despite my brothers discouraging me saying not safe etc.

(Learning new tricks of combining posts, to shake off name of spammer.)

For 12 m, I have got 4.2% though someone has claimed he got 4.25% before. So for 24m, can try to ask for higher % than 4.25%.

Their Parker pen has 2 types, one of them is a cheaper version.

Wow, with BR for >10 years ?? notworthy.gif I am just coming to 1 year. You sounded like a big timer with BR ! biggrin.gif

Ya ya, interesting. For me, I split amount but mainly just in case there is a need to terminate and I don't have to lose out all the interest.

No. of days/365 x rate x principal
Use excel to minus between cells to get the number of days will be easier. If manually count, dont include the last date.

Hi, does anyone tried Affin Bank's FD before? Is it good? Saw the rate is 3.6% p.a. for 12-months, this is very much above the standard by all other banks. I was also wondering whether any body tried whether their e-banking facility can do the FD placements and upliftments without going to their physical branch, just like maybank2u? That would be good. rclxms.gif

Gonna try RHB promo. Not bad since interest is paid out monthly if you wish.
I wonder if they have anything extra for Premier customer?

OCBC has promotion now.

But mostly my FD is put via online banking, easy to get it uplifted.

I heard if you put over the counter, you would need to uplift it over the counter too.

Plus it's so risky to bring cash to bank.
