I opened several FD in Public bank on Different time, the FD account number is the same. Is it the interest compounded it together?

Sorry I should go to ask the officer there but due to in rush, I forget to ask. sad.gif

Should be OCBC promotion. Please check 1st page.
Ya read through.
Sorry not familiar with FD promotion thingy.
For OCBC promo, option 1, it's mention tenure 18 months. 6 months : 3.6 % and remain 12 months is 4%.

What happen after 18 months? I normally put my FD 5-10 years .

Ha, interesting. So you normally put for 5-10 years ? Which are the banks that your normally use and getting good rates ? Just trying to learn from the "veterans" as so far I have not put any FD >2 years.

After the 18 months, withdraw and find another FD promotion.  biggrin.gif

Haha... Not veterans. For me FD is FD (fixed) .so I didn't touch. Used it once when I bought my house after so many years.
For me , any good rates definitely couldn't beat our country inflation which roughly >8% (my own way of calculation, no supporting facts, haha) . Just for better savings.

seems like RHB has improved their 15 months promo;

http://www.rhb.com.my/Whats_New/deposits/s...D/#.U7pHrZSSzyQ

((3.48/1.05) + 3.68 + 3.88 + 4.08 + 5.38))/5 = 4.067%

First FD promo to breach 4% mark but 5% have to maintain in CASA for 90 days biggrin.gif

I had a saving and FD in Rhb.
Is it mean my current saving can be used to at as the requirements for CASA?

UOB interbank GIRO max per transaction is 500k, no limit on number of transactions per day. They charge me RM1 to GIRO.

Different bank different rules I guess.

Normal bank 10 cents.
Maybe the large service amount available

Since all my. FD is auto renewal upon maturity period, so the bank will automatically adjust the fd rate accordingly right due to OPR increase right?

Bank will auto renew to the board rate, it will be the higher rate if they adjust it. But some bank may not adjust it in relation to OPR increase or late in doing so.  smile.gif

Thanks. I guess need to check with them.

Noob question.

If i wanna change FD from Branch A and Branch B, (same bank), I just go to the branch and tell the staff there. So they will do the necessary right?

Do i need to physically take the FD money (bank draft or cheque) from Branch A then bring it to branch B to open a new FD account there ??

Thank you.

Before you bring your FD receipt to B, call up B and ask these two questions:
1. Can I withdraw branch A FD at your branch ? If answer is yes, proceed to ask 2nd question.
2. Is there a inter branch withdrawal limit ?

Different bank have different inter-branch withdrawal policy.

Most banks operate different branches different FD account account.

There is one bank allowed opening account in branch A but can top up or do other operations in branch B. I think it is OCBC bank. Correct me if I am wrong coz I remember I did FD banking in two different branches.

In your case if you have saving account, you need to withdraw from branch A, IBG to saving account and go to branch B to open FD account.
Alternatively you can use banker cheque. Different rate of charges for IBG or banker cheque. But the different is not much. IBG has to be done before 12 noon to ensure the fund is in on the same day.

Thank you thank you. notworthy.gif notworthy.gif
