any good rate for 12 months other than the usual 3.3 from what i check on the topic updates? Any promotion (without needing to put certain % on the primary account or link with any bond/investment), just pure FD

The Affin 3.60, does it come with any condition, the description mentioned about placing 100k in the saving/current account, does that 100k inclusive of the FD itself or u need another 100k apart from what u place in the FD

Affin's 3.60% p.a. is their standard over-the-counter rate. purely FD. no other conditions. no need setup any accounts.

I did mine few months back, easy peasy. nothing to worry on CASA/FD split.  thumbup.gif

that's cool, been looking around OCBC, HSBC, HLB and RHB but mostly around 3.3% only, might be interested in Affin

You can consider Mach 3.7% for 6 months, monthly interest, but need to
sign-up a debit card for RM 8.00 annually. This promo ends tomorrow.

How about this second option..??  hmm.gif


RHB CNY 12 Months Term Deposit Islamic Promo from 20 January until 20 March 2014


Minimum FD placement: RM 10K
Maximum FD placement: RM 3 Million
Fresh Fund required
Both packages will pay monthly interest into saving account due to Islamic banking type.
Eligible depositors can apply to upgrade to Premier Customers to skip put money into CASA.

Package A: 3.78% rate p.a.
Non-Premier Customer: Need to put 5% into CASA and hold for 90 days
Premier Customer: Not required to put money into CASA

Package B: 3.88% rate p.a.
Non-Premier Customer: Need to put 10% into CASA and hold for 90 days
Premier Customer: Not required to put money into CASA

how many fund required to be eligible to become a premier user? never really deal with RHB except for their loan, might be interested in this since there's not much promotion for the past few months, most of my FD is reaching their maturity soon around march/april

Gotten 3.45/12 months special rate offered by UOB, non condition normal FD.
They have another 3.55/12 months but have to have some lump sum kept within the account for 3 months so i stick to the rate they offered.

R u guys planning on a group bulk Fd in search of better rate?
Mind if I ask a few questions regarding this?
1) would the account registered under 1 name or all that had participate
2) is the account require authorization from 1 name or it require 2 or more signatory to operate?
3) which bank u would probably place the Fd?

Had a few Fd maturing around early April, it sound like a good idea so please do brief me more. The current rate isn't really high compare to last year.

nowadays mostly involved CASA, ratio 80:20, 90:10 u name it

effective rate running from 3.4 to 3.55 i guess

don't really like these type of FD, the rate might be higher but some ppl tend to forget about the amount they place in account and not doing anything about it after it been released.

Yes, we are planning to gather a big fund from all participating members so that we
can negotiate better FD rates with the banks.

To answer to your questions:
(1) With a unique code for each member, each member will go to the bank to place FD by themselves.
There is no such thing we will pass our monies to one member to place FD for us.
Each participating will have a fully control of their monies, they can even cancel and not to participate our plan, and no questions will be asked.

(2) Participating members just need to use the unique codes to identify themselves to the bank  so that they can get the special FD rate from the bank. So it is up to the participating members whether if they want to have a single name or joint name on their FD account. Participating members can use their existing FD account to place this special rate FD.

(3) We do not know yet. But we have short listed Bank Rakyat and Affin Bank.
Let me brief you our plan:
(1) Consolidate a big fund first

(2) Talk to the bank.

(3) If the bank says ok, then one of our participating members will generate and PM confidential unique codes to each participating member. Then submit these codes to the bank so the bank can
identify us.

(4) We will not reveal the special rate and unique codes in public to avoid unnecessary problem. We will PM special FD rate and unique codes to each participating member only.

(5) Participating members go to the local bank, submit their unique code to get special rate, then place FD just as usual.

(6) All participating members' privacy are 100% protected.

(7) We use unique code because we do not want to explore our identities.

We will improve our planning and procedures little by little..

Please let me know if I am not answering to your questions.
You further questions are very welcome.. thumbup.gif

Yea u answer most of my doubts notworthy.gif
How will the bank quote their rate? According to the lump sum of all participant or quote before we participate?
Please update me the rate if it's nice i might take some of my FD which will mature early April and place under this, do they do things like CASA or it's just a normal 12months FD?

We appreciate your interest in participating our Group FD Campaign. However, we are unable to
get you an approval to participate our Group FD Campaign at this time and this is due to one of
the reasons your low post counts do not meet our requirement.

We apologize for the inconvenience that may cause you.
