hi sifu, so 1 of the FD (joint name with mom) is going to mature in the next 2 week. never really pay attention to the rate until i stumbled to this wonderful thread about the needs of getting good rate smile.gif thanks guys

my question is if we want to withdraw the matured FD, what's the process like? and does it has to be done on certain date or before the mature date in order to avoid penalty? and do we usually withdraw it in bank draft form or ?

quick question, does the PIDM protection thing works base on bank or on certain FD program?

hi sifu, for MBB General Investment Account-i (GIA-i), there is a PSR.

1. does that means if I place RM100 and interest is RM4(4%), and the PSR is 70/30, meaning RM2.8 goes to me, and RM1.2 goes to bank?

2. also these GIA-i is available from RM5K (1month), RM1K (>2months), does that means if I have RM10K in MBB saving, i should always throw them into this and at least put 1month tenure?

Ignore PSR n choose your desired duration

enlighten me please, ignore means the interest paid does not calculate in that sharing basis?

Not all banks are PIDM protected, BSN and BR.

PIDM 250k protection per depositor per member bank.

so even if a bank is ahli PIDM, some of the FD package offered is not protected by PIDM right?
for example MBB General Investment Account-i (GIA-i)
there is this clause stated - "* Not covered by PIDM. Principal is not guaranteed"

for 30k, do you think i should go for current best Affin 15mths (4.05%), Bangkok 12mths (4.1%) or wait a bit for the merdeka promo if there is any.

Went to Affin branch in Bayan Baru. All done within 8 minutes ! Nice !  rclxms.gif

Put in for 15 mth 4.05%, pure FD. On maturity, all go to SA. So on maturity, I can xfer the fund to anywhere there is FD or for other uses. No need to go to the branch.

Asked about the 4.15% promo, need to apply debit card. Take 3 weeks to get it. Cannot get the promo rate until the debit card approved in the system !  doh.gif Something wrong there. Anyway did not inquire further as do not want to get into hassle of cancelling the debit card later. Debit card first year free and second year RM20.  biggrin.gif

for new customer, need to open SA right?
and sorry for noob question, upon maturity, xfer fund means online xfer or bankcheque or.. ? thanks
