Can please provide more info on this ?
How's the mechanism like?

Need to stand-by some funds for payments of bills.
Money could be lying idle from less than a month to 3 months.
Problem is don;t know exact date of billing, so can't plan properly.

Now using CIMB money multiplier account that gives me 2.5% p.a. on daily rest.
Wonder if there's anything better than this.

Feedback/info much appreciated !

These interest rates are for one year. If you need to have on-demand cash, and can stand to wait a few days to receive your funds, you can try Fundsupermart's money market account - yield is 3.67% now. Drawback is no PIDM protection.

i saw this clauses in CIMB unfix T&C.
if means after 3 month maturity must continue place for another 3 month? or can withdraw the money out?

thanks in advance.

7. Renewal: Upon maturity of the 3 Months and 12 Months FD, the “Promotional Rate” will cease to
apply and the Eligible Customer hereby agrees and authorizes the Bank to automatically renew or
roll over the respective 3 Months and 12 Months principal FD amount to a Three (3) months and
Twelve (12) months conventional fixed deposit tenure and the prevailing CIMB Bank board rate
applicable at the time of renewal or roll over shall apply.

Shucks .. and I thought for every placement of RM30k fresh funds will be entitled 1 entry for the OCBC Ang Pow contest. Wanted to place RM90k for 3x entries, then when informed can only join 1x, placed only RM30k for 12mths/4.2%. First time opening any account in OCBC. I must say, indeed got lengluis at the Bandar Puteri branch. Unfortunately, only lengchai serve me instead.

SCB FD promo FD still available till end March of fulfilment of quota. Just placed my first 15 month FD for 15tmths/4.5% (my longest term ever laugh.gif )

Ambank Gold Contest
- Every RM10k = 5 entries
- New customer = Double the entries
- PB customer = triple the entries + extra 0.05% FD interest on top of 4.08%
So stupid though, wanted to open PB to triple my odds. Instead, they will have someone call me coz no one available to entertain me. What this tells me is that PB status in Ambank is pointless as no dedicated counters/rooms to provide service.

All this at Bandar Puteri Puchong branches ..

I just went to OCBC Cheras branch to place the 4.2%/12m fd. Haha indeed many lengluis work in OCBC. I show them the ringgitplus message about the free luggage upon doing the fd. Then I ask the leng lui personal banker, can I entitle for both the luggage and the angpows. Unfortunately she said they will only pick either one. So if you receive the luggage bag you will not win the angpaos. doh.gif

Took me less than half hour. Maybe your leng lui want to keep you there longer than needed leh

Their contest runs for 3 weeks, with winners for each week. Today is the end of 2nd week. Trow starts the last week. You can place another RM30k tomorrow for a second chance. But you can only win 1x the Ang Pow, if you're lucky to be the winner twice within that 3 weeks.

CB 1 mth 9.18% FD (UT promotion) matured today. drool.gif

Decided to move to EPF max 60k. Used PBB and took just few minutes to get it done by cheque. Then deposit for PBB step-up FD. Advantage is the 6 mth 4.08% should I decide to terminate 6 mths later. If not, next 6 mths will be 4.28%. rclxms.gif

That is good news ! I have complained to BR before that this is an issue for their customer since they started this no issuing of cheque in Jan 2014.

So looks like they are trying to retain their customers which is good news for everyone ! rclxms.gif

Thanks !
