QUOTE(Nom-el @ Feb 23 2016, 12:34 PM) Would like to ask anyone here with experience with HSBC Advance current account. Did you need to close your Advance account to avoid paying the RM10 per month account fee after withdrawing the 5% promo FD? I transferred all my money out from the account after the maturity of the 3 months 5% promo FD meaning the account balance is RM0 now. So, would the account be automatically closed after a while or do I still need to go to the branch to close it manually? Would I still be charged the monthly fee if I leave it as it is currently. Thank you. Better go and close. Or u could convert to a statement savings but conversion is slow. After I sign the form for 10 days the hq still not yet convert and they continue to charge me 10.60. So I lut them kow kow and cc the email to bnm. After a few days my account is converted and 10.60 reversed from my account.

QUOTE(cherroy @ Mar 2 2016, 02:09 PM) Another factor is trust. We tend to trust a bank more than another due to convenience, and service quality we experienced as well as how well it is being run. Also, Mr Lim may not want to deposit in Bank A, even the bank gives him 4.5% if bank A had history run into losses during economy difficult time. Rate alone is not absolute factor. There are other consideration and individual preference as well. Btw, 2.x% car loan, its EIR is more than 4%. You never can win against Bank by loaning vs FD.  I will put my money in different banks even if getting lower FD rates bcoz the pidm coverage is only 250k per person per bank.

QUOTE(twinkle5129 @ May 5 2016, 05:31 PM) Affin staff is promoting 1:1 stuff. FD 1yr promo only-5% : SIS (15yrs)- (saving + protection) guarantee annual income- interest up to 5.5% -non guarantee. I'm clueless with this type of saving. When you see the word savings plan, 99.9% it's an insurance scheme. Nowadays banks typically likes to use this type of FD combo to fool unsuspecting customers.

QUOTE(lowya @ May 8 2016, 08:03 AM) dont mind explain how u get 4.43% effective? if that is the case, how come they didnt mention inside the pdf? Deposit rm240k, interest earned upfront = rm10,200 Re-deposit the interest 10200 and earn another interest rm433 Total interest earned : 10200 + 433 = 10633 10633 / 240000 x 100 = 4.43%
