I also prefer maintain.  Top up 10k to existing maturing fund at OCBC and renewed at 4.3% for 15 mths.    Register for free luggage bag again.  Will be my 3rd bag, LOL!!

The FREE trolley bag is subjected to a minimum placement of RM70,000, right?

Offer still open?
Seems so... looks like no more 4.5% anymore.

I think currently Public Bank's 4.1% + 4.5% (6M + 6M) is the best offer.

Those step-up promo is subject to change if OPR changes. So better lock up full tenure at fixed rate.

Are you sure that the step-up promo is subject to change if OPR changes?
I don't think so.

Why don't think so?

This is from the TnC. (3+3+3 PBB Step Up)

Edited:
Looking for 6+6 TnC...

Here you go:
[attachmentid=6175759]

I am not sure about other step-up promo. Perhaps some can share. But there's reasons why more banks start to offer step-up promo. Like some members here said, OPR might be adjusted lower coming MPC meeting.
*
Yes, you are right! I just went to PBB & the brochure mentioned about it. When I asked the bank officer, he said so far they never revise the offer rates even though the T&C states otherwise.

Anyway, I have done placement with PBB & MBB's step-up FD rates before & so far they honour the offer rates. Hopefully they don't revise when the OPR changes.

Need to see how far back does the officer mean. OPR went up since early 2010, it was good for them not to revise the offer rates, unless he's referring to crisis time where OPR was adjusted downward from 3.50% to 2.00% which I don't have the details about any promo that time.  Not saying that you should not take up the offer, but just need to be mindful that they have the rights to revise rates should OPR changes.

really? for 50, 55, or 65 years old? not without respect, we know the senior citizen age wise are defined differently from age 50 to 65.
are u senior citizen?
*
55 but I dun think it has to do with age.

In the case of MayBank, the teller told me that if I request 1pc of Banker's Cheque for the 100% amount then it is FREE. If partial of the whole amount, then chargeable.

As for Public Bank, I requested 10% to be credited to my S/A & the balance 90% in a single BC .... and it is FREE.

As for OCBC, so far I only request for 100% in a single BC which is FREE. Other than 100% then I am not too sure whether it is chargeable or not.

Whatever it is, I am not too picky even if it is chargeable.

LOL! Out of the blue, today received a Condotti 20 trolley bag from OCBC for FD placement on Jan 2016.
During placement, was told by Relationship Manager that the quota for the free trolley bag has been filled up so I wasn't eligible!
