Need to top up another 50% sum to buy Smart Income Saver (SIS)
Ask the staff how it works
Told me investment plus insurance
Can any1 enlighten on this?

Hi guys, a quick question here.

For the OCBC smartsaver, if my FD is already matured and withdrawn and if I maintained the amount in my smartsaver for 4th and 5th month, willl I be getting the interest rates of 2.9% if I continue to deposit 1k into the account without any withdrawal?

Thanks.

Yes, it has no link to your FD.

Earlier SC got offered me 3.5% for 6mnths. But I choose to wait and hunt.

Get to know MBSB give 4.2% for 9mnths. Anyone got further details? Is clean FD or else?

Still holding my bankers cheque. Wait and see.

For OCBC's 4.2% 3-months deal, the effective rate should be 3.55%, right? Someone mentioned 3.7% earlier, so which one is correct ah?

How do you get 3.55?

Only under specific promo or certain bank offer such service whereby they credit the monthly interest into your saving accounts.

Of course always better to get monthly but i prioritize the interest % more than this as it is not the deal breaker for me.
