Any idea tis promo until when?

I placed my less than  RM 20K FD for 5 month tenure in UOB yesterday, I got 4.00% rate, no extra 0.05% wor... 
Receiving interest earlier than upon maturity can plan ahead to make payments to utility bills and loan payments,
and can plan ahead to place next FD, ; and for Ah Goat Sir, he can plan ahead to buy US$ bank draft, and many more of
financial planning. A good example is BR's 5 year FD with monthly interest. 

Yes, the FD deposit must be large enough in amount so can feel the useful and powerful of interest payment 

It stated in their website is 5k for 1 month.

Both MBB conventional and islamic eFD are minimum RM5k for 1 month.

for a student, dare question people? oic have fd everywhere one. how do you know if the sum is not big? 

also if bank is suppose to give interest but do not give, are you just going to sit still? 

Int earned is negligible plus not worthwhile taking into a/c time spent at Bank

Even int @ 3.25%, it's still not worthwhile to place RM1k FD for 1 mth

no need to be a priority customer or have RM or spend money to drive/park/phone. if the T&C is valid, just an email will do.

I cannot put all my monies in FD for in case of an emergency.
Especially for an uncle like me who has high blood pressure.

For example, if suddenly I have a heart attack and need to be sent to a hospital,
(we do not want to talk about expensive private hospital lah), let's say if send me to a
government hospital, government hospital will also need me to put some deposit before
I can be admitted to ICU, right..?

So, uncle's situation is different from a young student which is much more tahan lasak like you.

But thanks for sharing about Am Bank 1 month Islamic FD at 3.15%, I will go to check it out
as well as May Bank m2savers. Learning things everyday in this thread.. 

By the way, when I wanted to open my Am Bank True Saver account 2 days ago, the Am Bank staff
was trying hard to convince me to place 1 month FD rather than to open True Saver account..

I suspect she wanted to hit FD quota..? 

Bro, the 5% meaning the said given interest amount add another 5% to you , don't confuse it..correct me if I'm make mistake

But this is July's news.. 
I think this is the typo error from Ringgit Plus website.
It is supposed to be 0.5% rather than 5%

Can you tell me where?
I cannot find it on BSN website..

Oh...  You are right..
It must have some catch..  

I think not that easy to get 5%

Anybody who speaks good bahasa can volunteer to call or visit BSN to check out this..?

Yes, it's true ... But then , why you are so concerning in saving account? If uncle have children below 18 years old , use their account to put the money is one of the choice u can make , why? Because many bank offer similar interest compare with fd rate.
