Are the special rates for 3, 6, 9 and 12 months at MBSB still running. Thot they were the next best rates when Affin expired offer was around.

Not really attractive nowadays, would be better off to go for Mbb GIA which has more flexibility

what is the best rate for long term @12mth now?

4.0% at HLB. But thought the rate only effective if u are doing FD placement via FPX.

Around there.. will be in Bangkok Bank tomorrow, will check this for you.

Actually depends, if you have enough funds, they can open for you in a few hours.

really dont know why you cant find this

https://www.pbebank.com/Personal-Banking/Pr...i-Campaign.aspx

you will realize that they change the promo yesterday. effective rate is 3.68 now compared to before which was 3.88. was informed when i went to the counter yday after getting my just matured fd.. just missed it

Coolstore - Not the best competitive rates at Maybank 4 mth 3.6%, Bangkok 5 mth 3.8% and HLB 6 mth 3.85%. The best deals today for short term straight FD are now at MBSB. Interest paid on maturity. Not to confuse with other usual MBSB promos that have options for interest payments at selected intervals at different but lower rates.
MBSB Quarter Pounder Deal special promotion, minimum 50k fresh fund from 1-9-2016 to 31-12-2016 or meet target amount earlier.
3 months - 3.9%.
6, 9, 12 months tenors all available at 4%.
Conventional and Islamic available at same rates.
The best monthly interest paying is Bank Rakyat at 3.95% for 12 mths for fresh funds ending 31-10-2016 or earlier.

Just check with UOB Kepong Menjalara. Still available 3.95% pa for 12 mths

sometime need to go over cimb....they no post their promo rate....
need go to the counter to ask and request for fd rate

not quite interested in mbsb

even bank rakyat chairman's case also dumping ppl confident that these small financial institute lack of proper check & balance mechanism

HLB now got 4% for 12mth for online fd placement

juz 'port out' like telco mnp

let say next year january/february around CNY banks (always) got various new fd promotion

better now juz put for 3mth/4mth tenure, then next jan/feb put on 12mth promo rate fd

but if drop further, then current savers who lock on 4% 12mth win then

so, juz gamling luck

but many ppl wanna 'cash' at beginning of a new calendar year, some for insurance premium/car insurance whatever all that kind of belanja, i'm one of this group

Want to place hong leong efd
So i go to open hong leong basiac saving account but get rejected by branch saying that account require employment letter for payroll or for low income people.

they say this is their bank policy. I dun think bank can do such thing, right?

After my insist asking to check further, they said will make a call to their office to confrm and leave my phone number there.

Maybe i need to try other branch.

Open saving account can get rejected??
Putting in money leh, not taking out!

They think you launder money that's why reject.

yeap hong leong bank has history of making customers open savings account with higher fees

Try CIMB...2 days ago i asked 30k 3 months 3.75%
