For security reasons, most banks don't allow auto-crediting of FD principal amount into CASA upon maturity date.  The normal SOP of a FD withdrawal requires depositor to present at the bank for finger print biometric scanning, identity card and real time signature ie 4 layers of security protections. If your FD principal can be simply withdrawn by a mere instruction in the FD system, then it will be defeating the purpose of the 4-layer protections mentioned above.
Some may argue that the auto-crediting goes to own CASA, what's the problem ? don't forget that FD also has joint account type and joint account can have different withdrawal conditions. to make things more complicated, interest crediting CASA also have joint account type. Therefore, to prevent security breach and loopholes, most banks don't allow it.   
But I read from this forum that some forumers here managed to instruct the bank to auto-credit principal + interest to CASA account upon FD maturity in order to counter the non interest payment on non banking day. Those who have done it before may want to share his view on this matter.

interesting, MBB officer allowed me to sign an instruction form requesting all my GIA FDs (4 on single name, 6 with 2 names) upon maturity, automatically credited into MBB saving account SINGLE name. The 2 names FD , either 1 to sign,
also can !.

Reason: MBB SA can easily IBFT out at maturity, no need go bank again.

want to park money 1 month for use coming CNY,

so i checked out here page 1. best i saw is 3.15% FD ,
straight way i went to MBB , gave her the cheque.

My RM asked why go for 3.15% only? i said i need it next month.

She told me just place as GIA MBB 4.5% x 12m,
come 5.2.2016, just withdraw!

She said no penalty, what a good idea!
so i share it here.

BSn better choice la.

i called up BSN, the 4.75%% is paying monthly.

For every million, you lose RM5700 per year. over long term rugi besar oooo
4.18% is very poor rate for big money.

Compare this:

1)RM1million, dump there once, sit back and shake leg 5 yrs..

2)Visit 10 banks or move FD every few weeks/months,
sure spend many more 2hours in 5 yr ,yet not earning more.

which one you choose??

True option 1 is better. But I choose Option 3. Dump into ASX FP. Earn 6.x% and don't need to run around until one needs the money tongue.gif

called up BSN , different branch different info.

1) branch A told me 5 years @ 4.75% interest upon maturity .
2) branch B told me 5 years @ 4.75% , interest every month into BSN savings account , for senior citizen extra 0.25% which makes it 5% for 5 years .

WHICH BRANCH TO BELIEVE ? That is the million dollar question...lol

5% !! that is surely irresistable, Mac FD dues must move there.

say bye bye to your value of RM in 5 years time.. it keep depreciate.. do u think 5% can save the value of our RM?

playing currency exchange is not without risk.
buy and sell you already lose ~2.0 - 2.5% exchange fees.
eg buy RM100k Sing Dollar, sell back you get ~RM97500

Put RM1 million in BSN, 5 yrs later get RM1.25Million,

Say now SD1=RM2.95,
5 years later if SD1 <RM3.75, your RM1million convert back will be less than RM1.25million.

You have lowered down deposits there ? But I think you mentioned you still have substantial deposits there ?

But other states (other than Penang) seems to be giving out better gifts. BR may be planning a surprise for you.
BR looks at total deposits. They don't care it is in 1 cert or not. I was shown a list by BR in terms of those eligible (just a flash no names seem). They list down by total deposits. Penang side my branch 300k and above. But it depends on branch and how many rich depositors. Each branch has their budget to fill.  biggrin.gif
*
yeah, already moved out 880... maybe this reason la no news so far.
but if go by the total deposits remain, by right they should still send me.
if call and ask again malu la as i will move out more for the BSN 4.75%.

Oh.. Clement Tai kor..
Really..?  doh.gif
I do not think I heard it wrongly because I wrote down everything she said on the spot

I think can put small amount to BSN, big amount need to consider first...  hmm.gif
If you do not mind about PIDM, I suggest you to negotiate with BR again before
you move to BSN, try to ask for 5.3% for 5 years since one member reports he can get
4.8% for 1 year, some more leng lui intrepidity85 can get 4.6% for 1 year at RM 300K.

I expect you can get in between 4.9% to 5.2 % for your 5 years FD in BR. Good Luck..  thumbup.gif
*
4.9-5.2%??? i doubt it very much.
What is the board rate now, how to nego up so much?? betul ke?
You try ask the BR manager, really can get that rate kah if put RM1 million, 2 million?


4.8% for 1 year also quite unbelievable to me.

they send me this hampers so late, probably sapu from last minute lelong offer.

i think what he says make sense actually..

because different state different limit been set

if you are at subang or kl or big cities at least need to put 1-3 millions to get that rate

but in small city 300k will do and rewards with 2 hampers and rate also attractive liao

this is characteristic for BR so far.

of course, THANKS to forumers here mentioning BR is good for FDs and negotiable rates with free gifts
*
unfortunately i remember my branch nego rate can increase very little only 0.05% or so.
but the last time i nego was long ago.


QUOTE(bbgoat @ Feb 5 2016, 08:04 PM)
So, I was right. BR was planning a surprise for you ! biggrin.gif

I agreed that 1 year 4.8% is unbelievable to me too. Their current promo for 2 years is 4.55% for min 50k. I think that was the reason they agreed to give me 1 year 4.5% for my FD renewal.

5 years ? 4.9% to 5.2% ? Must be very high millions. Unlikely go to beyond 5%.
*
yeah right, but it is too small to stop customer moving out.....
a better way is like your branch, offer extra 0.3% for 1 yr FD or something.
how much required to nego extra 0.3% for 1 yr?

QUOTE(BoomChaCha @ Feb 6 2016, 07:43 PM)
I suggest 2 week before your million FD to become mature, you show BR your million FD
to nego; otherwise BR will not believe you have this amount of money, then BR will serious
to work out the best rate for you.

Second method is top up million FD to nego. Good Luck..
*
i dont have 1 million/pc. manager must be sleeping la.
let me move out one by one without counter offer.

if really can get 4.9% or more,sacrifice abit also nvm.
I thought FD rate is going down,
why still got 4.9 - 5.2% rates??
