My IBG got rejected. vmad.gif Wasted paying the transfer fees.

Looks like I have to call them up anyways.

Wasai, my IBFT went inside the MACH acct immediately. But as I said it disappeared a few hours later. Your IBG not successful ? Was there a message send by originating bank (the bank u used to send to MACH acct) ? Maybe it is like my case the money not shown in the acct. But on the next day the MACH CS called me and put back the money. biggrin.gif

went to public bank to withdraw my fd that matured, the lady told me bankers cheque costs RM6  rclxub.gif
ended up withdrawing cash

I mentioned before on the PBB BC. If done from FD, minus BC fee from FD, then the fee is only RM0.68. Even the same branch some of the staff may not know also. If not RM6 for the BC. biggrin.gif

APR = 4.355% p.a. BR is assuming no OPR hikes in 2016/2017.

All financial institution FD promotions are geared to end Q1 2016. Wait and see stance towards FED policy.

Went to BR planned to uplift my FD and move it to UOB 4.4%...
But was surprise the ABM offer the current promo 4.45% for 2year tenure.
Asked to nego, cannot nego.
So end up stay with BR with monthly interest. Good for not needing to visit another bank.  nod.gif

I asked for the brochure, ABM said not yet received from HQ. Asked for gift, got 2 towels, umbrella habis.
ABM said there was a FD promo for 12mth last month, now promo for 24mth. Surprise no one heard and reported here.
Took me ~40min to settle everything and collected the certs. Consider fast as compare to last time.

MBB eff rate 4.5% may not be fixed. On the 3rd month, I am getting 3.998% instead of 4%, slightly low but not sure if it will go down further. Capital and interest not guaranteed.

My opinion is HL 6 mths 4.5% is better with mthly interest. Except if interest rate go down, then 6 mths later may lose out to other banks with 4.4% rates.

But hard to say which one the best as need to factor in other variables like convenience, length of FD etc. biggrin.gif

4.45% for 2 years FD is not really attractive. Last Nov AMBB also offer 4.6% for 2 years FD with PIDM.

Anyway the towel looks nice... tongue.gif

Ya I receive SMS when I woke up this morning saying that my IBG was not successful and the funds have been credited back into my account. vmad.gif

I tried calling the CS number stated in the HLB Connect website (at the bottom right always got that "call us at ...") but it went straight to engage tone few times or it will say "Harap maaf, the number you have dial is not reachable at this moment, blah blah blah". Have been trying since this morning so I fed up and send them an enquiry thru their HLB Connect also. They say will response within 1-4 working days. sad.gif

sweat.gif I guess I was lucky then. The IBFT done, fund disappeared few hrs later. But since did not receive notice that it was returned to originating bank, take it easy. The next day, MACH CS called me, then everything settled. That was 5 or 6 mths ago.

Hope you can get it sorted out soon.

One more thing, did you try to transfer fund between your normal HL acct to MACH acct ?

Unfortunately, I don't have a normal HL acct. Only got MACH acct and my CC. sad.gif

Guess I'll just wait for the CS to response to me.

I see. When I opened the MACH acct, just transfer my HL normal acct fund to the MACH acct. So no money down when I opened the MACH acct. It is convenience as can xfer fund to/flo both accts. Both would show up when log into the normal HL online acct. biggrin.gif

Huh! Lucky you mentioned about it. I didn't know the interest rates wasn't guaranteed.
BTW, what do you mean by "Capital not guaranteed"?

I saw in Ringgitplus.com website (as shown below) and it stated "Not covered by PIDM and the capital is not guaranteed".

Meaning the principal sum you put in is not guaranteed. Most are not worried about this. More of the interest paid also NOT guaranteed. Like the 3.998% I mentioned. biggrin.gif

Good for you. Last week when I applied for the nego rate I got a dark green 2016 diary.
Today when I collected 1 cert, they gave me a face towel & umbrella. Unfortunately they ran out of Parker pen.
