anyone has the mach online FD?

since the mach FD interest is credited to your money box deposit account every month, so the FD already paid the interest to you earlier than maturity date.

Just want to ask if i open 1 year FD of rm10k on mach FD, i full withdraw the rm10k after 5th month. Since the 1st - 5th month i got credited on my deposit account of the interest, so i have no lost on the interest? or they will deduct the penalty interest on my withdrawal amount?

in short, please refer to the example:
rate of 3.40% for 1 year, rm10k FD , average interest = rm28.33 per month

withdraw on 5th month maturity date (interest credited)
QUOTE
case 1:
rm28.33 * 5 = rm141.67 deposited to moneybox

FD rm10k -> money box,
total money box = 10,000+141.67 (which been credited monthly) = rm10,141.67

OR
QUOTE
case 2:
rm28.33 * 5 = rm141.67 deposited to moneybox

FD rm10k -> money box, penalty of 1-5th month applied (deduct rm141.67),
total moneybox = 10,000 - 141.67 (penalty held on your FD amount) +141.67(which been credited monthly) = rm10,000.

You principal amount will be deducted accordingly at the point of pre-matured withdrawal but you will still get some token interest.

As long as your deposit is more than 3 months, you will get some token interest.
Token means a much lower interest than the contracted interest. The token interest varies from one bank to another.

i see, just checked, basically would be 1/2 of the interest rate for mach FD.
thanks for clarify

just got email from hong leong bank about 3.7% 6 month FD promo for mach

seems like i can directly do a new FD placement from my currrent money box deposit account via hong leong connect.

So, if i IBG to money box deposit account, i am selecting "Hong Leong Bank" as Benificial Bank?

Havent done any IBG transaction to money box account before.

Any charges to open a Money Box Deposit Account? Anyone can share how this savings account work? As I tried to search on the HLB website but can't seem to find any links relating to it.

Am interested in the Mach FD Promo but want to ensure that I can perform it online.
*
account open = rm50 (minimum balanced maintained i tried is rm3, maybe can up to rm1)
debit card charges = rm8 annually
mach FD will link with this money box account, interest will crediting to this account every month.
For feature of the money box, just refer to the link by MGM

can do new FD placement online via hong leong connect. (even for this promotion, drop down list show '6month@3.7')

I can confirm up to RM2 as that's the amount currently in my MoneyBox. I opened with Rm100 deposit because they gave free water bottle.

confirmed RM1 as that's the amt I always leave in there after withdrawing my monthly FD interest. For for normal savings account , it has to be RM10
