Now we have 16 members, total RM 800K

Plan (my brain storm only)
(1) Consolidate at least RM 1 million fund from all participating members.

(2) Appoint representative to negotiate with the bank.

(3) As suggested by Warrior HJebat, after bank says OK, then representative generates and PM confidential code (for bank to  recognize members' identities purpose) to each participating member so that members can place their FDs at special rate by submitting the code to the bank. Each member will get one unique code only.

(4) Members can place FDs in their local bank branches.

Any suggestions are very welcome..Thank You

a great idea there, but I am just worried if this is considered as illegal deposit taking by the rep or the one who started this ? and then bnm take legal proceeds and freeze our fund ? any lawyer here can give any heads up ? unsure.gif

No illegal deposit taking as each individual will go to the Bank to perform your own FD with given a special "preferential FD rate"

This is a very good question.

In fact, participating members will place FD by themselves in one of their desired local bank
branches.

Each participating member will receive one unique code via PM from the representative, and
participating members will use this unique code to get a special FD rate from the local bank.

Our representative will submit all unique codes to the bank HQ to identify our participating
members.

All members' privacy will be 100% protected.

Thank you very much for your comment and concern...  thumbup.gif
Please let me know if I am not answering to your question.
You further questions are more than welcome..

I believe this is the first time of Group FD Campaign ever launched in Malaysia.
Definitely to use your money to pay off housing loan first.
