I can only withdraw max 5k from ATM.

Last time I transferred $ out from HLB to HLIB and then back to HLB the following day to be considered as fresh funds. Merry go round is accepted.

any affin bank promo?

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.

I still prefer Fd too. I have 2 pieces maturing end of this month.

Hey guys what is the best current FD promo for now ? My previous FD fund all just matured in this month. Planning to put around 400-500k FD. Thx for the advice

I also need to shop around for better FD rate by end of this month.
My principal PB officer is finally inviting me for lunch to talk about wealth management now that I've informed him that I'm re channeling my FD saving from their bank

is it ok to break 100k into 10 x 10k FD placements? so that if need to premature withdraw, no need lose too much?
*
Better check with bank. Sometimes 1 placement of 100k can get extra %. I was offered in April by HLB before they reduced the interest rate in May, 2016

You'll never know if you don't ask. Every little % counts now in this economic crisis.

My HLB PB officer wants to 'talk' to me but I told him, I'll only retain $$ in bank if they offer me FD 4.5% w/o T&C. At this moment, I've transferred out >50% of my matured FD today. biggrin.gif

Which means existing eFD upon maturity or upliftment, then follow new process and automatically will go into new interest rate right?

Just to confirm before I proceed

QUOTE(Ramjade @ May 31 2016, 06:15 AM)
If you uplift a non-maturing FD, be prepare to have penaly usually half of the given interest rate.
*
If your existing eFD placement is still in the 'cooling' period, you can uplift without penalty. Better check with the bank T & C. (For HLB- cooling period is 1 month. After that a big penalty sum.)
