QUOTE UOB FD Promo - Effective from 2 Sept until 30 Nov (3) 13 months - 3.95% (was 3.9%), FD interest will deposit to saving account every 6 months. Open a saving account requires min RM 2K, but can withdraw it during the second day. Can withdraw on the second days means the whole amount, or need to leave a token sum inside the SA? Should be able to transfer out using online IBG right? Thanks This post has been edited by Human Nature: Sep 6 2014, 12:14 PM

QUOTE(davinz18 @ Sep 11 2014, 11:39 PM) juz as I suspected as The first shot has been fired by Strd Chrtd Bank  meaning if the OPR remains the same on the September meeting, more banks are likely to offer more FD promo?

Yup, just have to make sure this: Saving Accounts with no transactions for 1 year (12 months) will be considered as dormant. Any dormant account with a balance of RM10 and below will be deducted by the Bank as dormant fee and the account will be closed. For accounts having a balance of more than RM10, a dormant fee charge of RM10 per annum will apply until the remaining balances are sent to unclaimed monies as per Unclaimed Monies Act 1965 So once open, then do IBG 1 time  Anyone happen to know whether the SCB promo has reached its cap?

Managed to dig out 20k and placed at SCB, 15 months promo. Really crowded and took 1.25 hours but it is ok coz the staff is so They really psuh hard their Just One account but I managed to open the basic SA, RM20 min deposit. Forgot to ask about free gift at all but what i like is, they give your slip in a nice plastic slip. If the OPR remains the same, i hope SCB extend this promo.

QUOTE(bearbear @ Sep 15 2014, 05:59 PM) queue for like 30 mins, then the whole process (i am new to bank) takes another 30 mins. not fast but better than ocbc and yes alot of eye candy as well lol u worried me a little bit with the just one acc i totally forget to instruct for most basic acc (see what eye candy did?) anyway i checked mine and is just one saving acc, dont think it is complex aite? since they only ask 20 bucks from me to deposit. yup, a straight forward account. they even give a passbook  ops..didnt ask about how the interest will be paid..maybe later i email to the staff, i asked for her name card This post has been edited by Human Nature: Sep 15 2014, 06:04 PM

QUOTE(BoomChaCha @ Sep 16 2014, 03:21 PM) Ya loh.. Then I just go for SCB hopefully this promo is still available on 19th.. Ha.. ha.. let's say if BNM makes announcement to raise the OPR on Thursday.. then how..? If this happens, I think I still need to go for SCB on 19th because do not know when will other banks to take action to react to this OPR change..? Do you want to go for SCB 4.25% for 15 month? Or 4.00% for 12 months? I will go for 15 months.. What about putting 3 months, then wait for the Nov meeting. 6th Nov meeting, got 1 week for the banks to react.

QUOTE(bbgoat @ Sep 19 2014, 05:23 PM) In SCB today for the 4.25% FD. The "consultant" recommended a "JustOne" account which does NOT need any money in saving account. Normal SA need min RM20 there. Interest is paid every 6 mths to the saving account. Did someone say that interest only paid at end of 15 mths ? FD can be placed up to 4pm the same day using cheques. The FD may be extended next week. Have to call to confirm.  the lenglui who handled mine said end of the tenure wor..i got a feeling your consultant is more accurate This is the requirement for JustOne Deposit minimum of RM1,500 in a single transaction into JustOne Personal Current Account monthly (fresh funds). https://www.sc.com/my/save/savings-justone-personal.htmlThis post has been edited by Human Nature: Sep 19 2014, 06:30 PM

QUOTE(bbgoat @ Sep 19 2014, 06:44 PM) Actually I should say the 1st 6 mths interest paid, next one will be at the due date interest will be paid. The mthly deposit is to enjoy certain benefits of JustOne account.  Did you open the JustOne also ? i thought need to deposit a large amount to JustOne, so I opt for BSA

QUOTE Best 13 Months UOB 3.95%, pure FD. valid until 30 Nov (New added & updated) Please read below comment about UOB open CASA issue posted originally by Gen-X Click to enlarge: [attachmentid=4128524] I am looking at this promo if there is no other promo within this week. However, the eAccount has a minimum initial deposit of RM 500. In this case, shouldn't the Basic Savings Account be a better choice as its minimum initial deposit is only RM20.

QUOTE(nomen @ Sep 22 2014, 08:25 PM) However, do take note that the 15 months tenure earlier had been revised to 18 months instead. [B]Place a minimum of RM5,000 in fresh funds into a fixed deposit for 18 months and earn 4.25% p.a.[  Tenure 6 months 3.75% p.a. 12 months 4.00% p.a 18 months 4.25% p.a. Good catch 18 m works for me too.

QUOTE(bbgoat @ Sep 25 2014, 07:21 PM) 4. For this 18mths promo, every 6 mths interest to SA. oh, so still need to open CASA QUOTE(bbgoat @ Sep 25 2014, 07:28 PM) Yes, notice the same today. Still photostat ic copy and a chop. But the chop is away from the ic image so can re-photostat some more copies. If chop is on the ic image/wording then will be better security. The photocopy was done inside their office (cannot see)

Just to re-confirm, there is no minimum initial deposit amount for the SCB Just One account and we can fill up a form to cancel debit card (else will incur RM8 charge)? I was again informed by SCB customer service that need to deposit RM1500 and it can be transferred out the next day.
Also, I plan to open another SA or Just One account so that the interest does not get mix with my first FD. Since the new FD will be a joint account, can the SA or Just One account be opened for joint holders too (ie. 2 names)?
