BANK RAKYAT - NOT Eligible for PIDM

If you are willing to go deposit with a non PIDM member, then check out Bank Rakyat Deposit Account -i which is based on Islamic Principles and like all Islamic banks' products, the profit rate cannot be guaranteed.

user posted image

Thanks to all members who highlighted that deposit more than RM5K with BR is now eligible for monthly dividend. However, please note that many members here reported that their monthly dividends were not be credited monthly but they have to call up BR staff to have it done manually every month!!!
Special thanks to bbgoat for reporting the tenure to be eligible for monthly dividend:-

QUOTE
Was in BR again today. Asked the question. For monthly interest the FD has to be min 6 months.

Banks that offer true eFD (can do placement & uplift online)
i) AmBank
ii) AmBank Islamic - Minimum Fund for 1 month = RM1,000, Rate: 3.15%p.a.
iii) RHB
iv) Maybank
v) CIMB
vi) Alliance Bank
vii) Hong Leong
viii) UOB
ix) OCBC

Banks that offer online FD placement (cannot uplift online)
i) Affin
ii) Public Bank
iii) Citibank - contributed by bbgoat

I think HSBC can do online placement too but not sure if can uplift online or not. Confirm by cklimm placement only and cannot uplift.

QUOTE
For HSBC eFD, no need go branch for uplifting. You can do the uplifting through phone banking. Tested it myself yesterday for my pre-mature eFD. Everything is done within minutes for me to giro the money to another bank.

The limit is based on your imagination and expectation.tongue.gif
One condition:
Teach your kids the value of money. Never pamper them. A rich kid will never understand the value of money and will lose respect for it as he/she thinks my father is rich. I have unlimited money. They will get involved in smoking, drinking, vaping useless activity wasting away on unhealthy lifestyle (too much money until they don't know where to spend)

Many of my friends end of the month no money - drinking in pub, karaoke, vaping, buying designer clothes/shoes every month, must eat at grand/high class places.

Asked them why don't you save? Aiyaa,  for what want to save? When studying must enjoy life to the max. Lots of time to save later on. What more when adult time.

Three indicator I used for myself :
1)The money must be able to buy a Malaysian car fully in cash while you are still a student which means one is good (I did not buy any car)
2) Able to put away 50% of what you get every month (done)
3) Able to survive on dividends/interest (otw)

everyone, please confine this thread to FD discussion only

BSN 12 mth 4.5% looks good. Have no experience with them but have heard some problems. How is their system and service level ?

Saw their promo:

I have placed FD with BSN before, so far have not encountered any problem.

I believe the quality of their service varies from branch to branch.

That's true (EPF by rule must give out 2.5% but generally their interest will always be more than FD). But are you wiling to lock in for xx years? tongue.gif. This year interest some say 5+%, some say less 5%.doh.gif

I told my parents dump into ASX FP first than only taruh EPF seeing that we don't know how much they are giving. EPF is not consistent. sad.gif

If I were you, max out EPF, SSPN to get tax relief. Why want to give so much to...?  whistling.gif anymore is up to you to decide tongue.gif

based on first quote of my post = i was merely asking as if all bank saving accounts are protected by PIDM as i have no knowledge in this. Correct me if i was wrong? no?

based on second quote, i mentioned BR is good for offering / can negotiate with high % interest though no PIDM for FD with freebies, etc.

two different questions with two different answers,

my english sucks .. make u kenot comprehend well  tongue.gif  tongue.gif
*
If you don't know whether all banks' saving accounts are protected under PIDM then in the first place why are you giving advise to other forumer stating that BSN is protected under PIDM?

If you don't know then just google what is PIDM before giving advise, don't mislead others when you don't even know.

And why are you differentiating savings accounts with fixed deposits? PIDM protects the depositors against the loss of their insured deposits which includes both savings account and fixed deposits.

If you don't know then just refrain from posting. Don't come and spam here just for the sake of post count.

this is a public forum , not your dad forum where everyone has a freedom to speak

second i already apologise for the wrong information i provide and you're obviously want to troll and lit up the fire

third for the sake of post counts, who are you to judge?

for the sake of flamming, i will let the mod/admin to decide

one post wrong info with apologise yet the flamming continues and raging like no tomorrow

i can't believe mature people act-like-that

hence, post reported.

yes, you have your freedom to speak but if you are trolling or feeding others wrong information then be prepared to be corrected.

if you want to spam you can spam at any other thread but not in my thread.
