QUOTE(gsc @ Jun 6 2016, 04:30 PM) Am bank is customer friendly on fresh fund requirements . Since True Saver rate drops from 2.8 to 1.8%, transfer my money to the 6 months FD 4.25% promote rate, rm500 ( min rm10k) or 5% of FD to be kept in saving account. i use True saver as it gives 1.8%.. For 6 months i think this is the best rate If Ambank allow us to place it with existing fund or just top up a bit, then that is covinient for existing customers. However, pure "fresh" fund, still prefer Hong Leong 6 month offer, 4.25% By the way, I calculate ambank offer in stupid way like : (4.25*20+1.8)/21 = 4.133% This post has been edited by spyew: Jun 6 2016, 04:52 PM

QUOTE(gsc @ Jun 7 2016, 06:53 PM) You are right , the effective rate is 4.13%. for senior citizen, interest is paid monthly. The plus side is entitle to participate in the car draw competition. Ambank policy on premature withdrawal, withdraw after 3 months, half the interest will be given only. It is just casual calculation  I didn't add in the interest will be credit(Savings account) every month Anyway, our fund not that large, for the sake of saving hassle of time(Moving fund around:lol: ), parking fee etc., it is still worth & convenient for existing customers like us. Not to mention, extra lucky draw
