Simple, the government wants to give benefit to SSM, and secondly want to collect income tax
from internet seller later..

So, the best 1 year FD rate is 4.3%? If to omit BR..

After considering the amt for my FD (in SCB), decided to go back to BR. Called to get nego rate of 12 mth 4.5%. Got the approval from BR HQ 15 minutes later.

So, went to SCB to withdraw FD. Last week, getting the CO in 10 mnutes. Today, still no people in the PB centre, 35 minutes !! Asked why took so long, told as relatively large, need more signature.  doh.gif So the time taken is related to the amt of FD !! Shxx !!  doh.gif

Went to BR. Lots of people there. Was greeted by the officer and jumped queue. Given one more Cross pen as I posted on Tuesday. More gifts like gold coins coming from HQ .................. thumbup.gif

The 2 pens from BR. Both has different description at the back of the casing. But looks similar. Could be mixed up by BR/supplier when they put their logo on the pens and put the pens back into wrong casing. Hahaha. biggrin.gif

The pens quality not bad. But looking forward to the gold coins and other gifts from KL, coming, soon ! rclxms.gif

Really hate to have FD matured on 1st of the month, especially big funds (to me but sub sub sui to others  tongue.gif ). Have to call to know the latest promo:

UOB:
4 mth     4%
9 mth     4.15%
12 mth   4.3%

OCBC:
9 mth      4.15%
15 mth    4.3%
Promo, existing fund just top up 10k will do

AmBank:
3 mth       4.1%   min 10k
9 mth       4.15% min 20k

HL:
3 mth        4.2%  min 10k

CIMB:
12 mth      4.3%
Last week CIMB still can give 4.35% for large deposit, this mth, no more. Max 4.3% !

After considering the amt for my FD (in SCB), decided to go back to BR. Called to get nego rate of 12 mth 4.5%. Got the approval from BR HQ 15 minutes later.

I am in a similar situation as you unker goat. I have 3 FDs maturing in the next 1 week! Btw, do you have a RM in BR?
Your Cross pen looks much more tempting than my car sun shade / bath towel. rclxms.gif
Before I go BR next week will try nego rate with HQ. Call up the branch first before going right? Don't like it as need to call a general line & then patch u through to the respective branch. cry.gif

I have answered that before. That BR Xclusive Club do not assign RM like other banks. Anyway I am in Penang.

You can visit BR branch if u do not want to call up a general line and talk to the officer, ABM or even BM. Nego few days before your FD mature date (in other banks).

Their gifts wise used to include Parker pens but this Cross pen seems to be of better quality than the Parker pen they gave out to me before. Other gifts include laptop bag, backpack, towel, cups, manicure set (nice one) etc etc. These are just bonus to me. biggrin.gif

Let know what rate u got ! Good luck ! thumbup.gif

Thanks for the list. Just returned from a trip and had to browse 10+ pages of words and words. Missed my SCB maturity by several days and can only make placement on Monday. Considering between OCBC 15m 4.30% and UOB 12m 4.30%.

You are lucky as I was in a rush on Friday trying to find out the best deal before I take out the SCB FD. Anyway glad that it saves you some time.

Other than BR, now it looks like the major banks are giving only 4.3%. Even CIMB forbid the 4.35% which last week they are willing to give me. biggrin.gif

OCBC website states Promotional Welcome Rate as one of the so called exclusive privilege. Is this rate referring to FD rates?

If it is, what kind of additional rate I can expect?

Last year I joined their PB. Part of the "offer" is high FD rate, but it is bundled with UT or insurance linked products (for new PB member). I believe it is still more or less the same this year.. I passed on this. biggrin.gif

You can call them to be sure. The "offered" rates, other than FD, could be 2.5% commission for UT. Another attractive point of OCBC PB is their referral. I have referred 3 PB for them, earning RM300 X3= RM 900. drool.gif Check if still available. biggrin.gif

Thousand apologies, I was also thinking no RM too but just wanted to confirm.
I will call up first before going as the last time I asked for nego rate, about a week passed without any updates until I called & asked & 5 minutes later got an answer bangwall.gif

I will specifically ask for Cross pen biggrin.gif The parker pen was either blue or white, not stainless steel color tongue.gif
Sure, will let you know the outcome.
