If Standard & Chartered Bank can extend this promo, it can create a big FD war

Nego wise, it depends on the bank, some bank may give more (like BR), some zero. SCB offer is the best so far ! rclxms.gif

Thanks for the confirmation.

So for RM100k deposit @ 5.31%, one will get RM6,637.50 interest after 15 mths right ?  hmm.gif
But I'm still confused, why SCB advertised 4.25% leh ?  rclxub.gif  why don't SCB advertise the hidden 5.31% as you pointed out to attract more depositors ?

RM5,312.50 interest is based on 15 months duration

Ambank has the 3.85% p.a. for 5 months tenure. So let's say i put in 20k today, it will mature on 2nd march 2015. How to calculate the monthly interest? Is it (((3.85 x 5) + (3.20 × 7)) /12) × (200000/12)? Sorry...a bit blur with the calculation.

20k x 3.85% x 5/12 mths

In BR today. They just raised their 12 mth rate to 4.1%. The staff showed me a slip with the new rate. 24 mth 4.2%, 5 years 4.5%.

The staff again pestered me not to withdraw the FD. Still IBG it out. But the IBG cost only 30 cent this time. Last time was RM2, I think.

One more thing, she said no more nego rate !  shakehead.gif

BR yet to update their new rates as of now shakehead.gif
