Yes, the GIA-i promo can be done online by selecting the preferred tenure (6/12 months).

Yes. It can be done online

Edit: Saw it in the website of MBB Maybank2U, the step-up one. So need to explore further.

Anyone knows 4% rhb still available?

12 mth 4% finish. Left 3.9% 9 mths

did you open one online?

Hi guys what is the best FD for 3 to 4 months at the moment?

Yes

Maybank GIA-i step up promo place over the counter, 4.1% pa. But since the interest given every months credit back to principal, the accumulated total interest for 12 months will get close to 4.2%. Not bad..

I tried to uplift one of my GIA placed in August or September 2016 via maybank2u, the rates are not prorated at all

I think there's something wrong with their calculation.

Example

50K placed on 2 Aug for 3 months (mature 2 Nov). If uplift today, it shows 78.69 interest only

I found out can place online as well as long choose 6 or 12 months tenure. I did it online this morning, then call up RM to check and she confirm she can see in the system its the step up rates. Save me a trip to the bank

Then will the bank mail you the hardcopy FD certificate?

that's great
can we assume Maybank still pays the normal GIA interest (3.6%/p.a. currently) calculated daily if we uplift earlier?

There is no special button to choose between current GIA-i (ranging from 1 to 12 mths) n the 6/12 mths promo
How do u know systems will place your application in the right place?

Good to know that, although too late for me, went there this morning.

I didn't ask but I assume no hardcopy since this is eGIA. Personally I don't like certificate, everything online easier.

Nope, there is no button, hence the hesitancy, which prompted me to call up my RM. I text her my IC no, and she was able to confirm the rates which tally with the cert number of the FD that I can see in M2U.
However, after placement, you can go and view your cert, then click on the "i" for info for each cert, it will show you the step up rates.

Anymore good deal for 12 months except the following :

1. HLB efd @ 4%
2. UOB @ 3.95%
3. RHB @ 3.9%

I have one maturing end October....I remember seeing some post on Bank Rakyat
