I'm going to go for RHB step-up promo.
Was wondering, if the OPR does go down, will the rate for subsequent month be revised since it is a step up FD where they have different interest rate for different months.
Or would it be safer to just go for those non-step up, one rate kind of FD?

They say the 4.21% effective rate (step up promotion) already closed at almost all branches.

Just placed my eggs in RHB. I actually banked in using a RHB cheque and there was no questions asked...so I guess their definition of fresh fund is pretty much 'flexible'.

Not really. I've been to 2 RHB brunches to place FD and get rejected from using money from my saving acct

I didn't transfer directly from my savings account. The RHB cheque was issued by another person and I placed FD under my name.

Chased my SCB RM on the late interest for the 15 mth 4.5% FD. He apologized and said already submitted for "manual interest calculation". Why take so long ?

Not all foreign banks have good system in place.  doh.gif First similar FD received interest then why second one cannot ?  shakehead.gif

Adoi. Why your RM layan but this is the reply I got from my complaint letter to them. Why different standard?

Hahaha, good and bad points of joining their PB. Have an RM to contact and complain.  biggrin.gif

Which option did you choose for the interest crediting( indicated in the FD cert )? But for SCB, >12 mths FD, interest is paid every 6 mths.  biggrin.gif
