For this OCBC e-SmartSavers Account:
I would know whether the following is correct or not.
July 2015: Activate the account by depositing RM 1000. Get 4 % interest per annum on the account balance.
August 2015. Deposit RM 50. Make a withdrawal. The interest is now 0.5 % interest per annum on the account balance.
September 2015: Deposit RM 50, and does not withdraw. The interest is reverted to 4 % interest per annum on the account balance.

Nice, the 4% interest rate for OCBC e-SmartSavers account is on par with that of fixed deposit account, without the need to hold the deposit for more than 6 months (a requirement for fixed deposit).
1) I have OCBC Easisave Saving Account and access to OCBC Internet Banking. If I have opened and activated OCBC e-SmartSavers account, can I access this account via Internet Banking, and can perform deposit and withdraw money to and from e-SmartSavers account; and transfer between my two OCBC saving account?
2) Is it possible that OCBC may revise 4% interest rate, should there be any change to OPR?
3) Is there an annual fee for this account?

QUOTE(cybpsych @ Jul 10 2015, 04:13 PM) 1) should be able to transfer between own accounts using Internet Banking. Screenshot from Internet Banking > Transfer Fund. Note from screenshot: I only have SmartSavers. » Click to show Spoiler - click again to hide... « 2) OPR change, up to bank's discretion to revise the interest rate. 3) Dont think so. It's an e-account anyway  Thanks for the answer, cybpsych. I will treat eSmartSavers as if it is a 1-month eFD, but with 4 % interest rate, as compared to 3.15 % for 1-month eFD.
