Btw, I let you know, I terminated a 3.7% FD  3 months into it at affin to go for their 4.33% FD before.
How would terminating be better than leaving it there? it seems to me you'd have made more if you left it there. Assuming that it was a 1-year term and you are paid half if you terminate, you lose 1.85% if you terminate. You gain 0.63% if you terminate. Why would you give up 1.85% for 0.63%? and then have to wait longer smile.gif

Don't you only get half if you terminate?
