Just saw news that Penang has lowered towing charge from RM150 to RM100. Reason is local council is allowed maximum fine of RM100 for towing. So Penang is following that local city council guideline which is supposed to be for whole of Malaysia.  biggrin.gif

So, Ah Boom, go and appeal ?  hmm.gif

Thanks for the info.. smile.gif
I will find out to see if I can appeal or not..

Hi BoomChaCha sir, thank you very much for your advice.
Is there any difference in terms of FD policy between normal SCB and Islamic SCB? I received a call from the bank (one of the service officers) and she told me that there is.

I do not know what is the difference in between SCB conventional FD & SCB Islamic FD,
but I know SCB Islamic FD is a little bit troublesome.

QUOTE(matow @ Apr 25 2015, 11:34 AM)
Anyway, my deposit was on 18.09.2014 and I just saw on the slip that it says Renewal Instructions : 1 (renew principal with profit) - the service officer says because it is option 1, the profits will not be credited every 6 months.
I pop in the bank on Monday (same building with my office) to try to argue my case.

Your Service Manager is wrong.
Renewal Instructions: 1 (Option 1) is noting to do with the FD interest crediting issue.

As long as your FD tenure is more than 12 months, you will get interest every 6 months.
It is stated clearly on the FD cert (ii) as below:

You have not received your interest is because SCB screws up this time, I think SCB is crediting
interest manually to all FD depositors nationwide. Tell your Service Manager that some of your friends have received interest, talk to him nicely and ask him to expedite the process to credit you the interest.

You can ask for a sample of FD cert from SCB counter and show it to your Service Manager, the FD cert is stated clearly on condition (ii), you will get interest every 6 months. I did like this to my Service Manager, he agreed and promised to help me to chase for the interest.

Hi Guys,

Can I use personal cheque for FD deposit? Will I get the certs on the same day if use personal cheque?

Or would it be better to get a banker's cheque, i think it's slightly more expensive than personal cheque (RM0.50 compare to RM2/RM5).

Thanks.

I went to SCB Saadiq (Islamic)this afternoon, the customer service told me
no need to wait for the check clearance, Islamic FD can be effective on
the same day if submit check before 4.00pm. And can just ignore the
sms when SCB ask you to participate something.

Yes, only 3 months..unfortunately sad.gif
If you want to place more than RM 30K, you can find your relative(s)
to open joint account with you, for example:
(1) You, under your single name -- one account for first RM 30K
(2) Under you and your wife joint account -- one more account for second RM 30K
(3) Under your wife single name -- another FD account for 3rd RM 30K .. and etc..

So, you can place total RM 90K under 3 accounts at a time.. biggrin.gif

Do take note that, after 3 months, when your HSBC advance account has balance lesser than 30k, the bank will charge you RM10.60 per month, including GST

Cannot really compare as different length of 3 mths vs 15 mths. Various things like need more time for the 3 mths vs 15 mths to handle the FD (3 mths later need to place FD again), diff needs of 3 mth short length (if need money 3 mths or so later, this is a good deal), OPR may change between 3 to 15 mths (up or down), max 30k for the 3 mth etc etc. biggrin.gif
