Just wondering.. If anyone knows that Alliance bank allows interstate withdrawal (ie:no limit and allows upliftment at other branches? Like SCB/AMBank )

Appreciate any input on this...

Hi all, any fee if I do he HLB placement via FPX from MBB? Will MBB charge us any fee? If yes, how much?

Only tried b4 via SCB which got free IBFT all this while..
*
FPX is FREE flex.gif
IBG is chargeable at RM0.11
Instant transfer is RM1.06
Rentas - depending on banks.. different bank different charges...

P/S- all above is just different ways to move funds due to each limitation... except rentas but comes with higher charge (please refer to the bank)

Only SCB Provides free IBG And Instant transfer...

you can do multiple FPX through HLB Connect for the FD Promo Placement...

and to whoever is gonna ask if you need to transfer the funds into HLB For placement, you don't! it's done through FPX- log in HLB Connect to find out more. It's pretty straight forward- just click next till the end and input amount etc...

It took me 5 minutes for each which is pretty fast to be honest for the FPX Placement... But I did it in the morning...

btw, anyone interested for AmBank placement, the BM Can approve up to 3.88% , min 280k new fund... thumbsup.gif

Hi guys, I am planning to transfer my fund from my current FD to another bank's FD. The amount is aroud 10k. May I know what is the simplest and cheapest method to do so? How much approximately is a banker's cheque? Thank you
*
cheapest is transfer using IBG/ IBFT for instant one...

if you want cheap and fast, suggest u wake up early to do the IBG transfer then go to the other bank in noon and the funds will be there already...

banker's cheque is only if the amount is huge and exceed online limit...

How they even workout that effective rate?? That is so misleading!

At the placement of 1:1 , even renewal at same rate also not going to get you anywhere near that 4% confused.gif

Perhaps someone can enlighten me...

Update: Affin hotline doesn't know about it... dry.gif

I'm doing a simple calculation based on months, might not be that accurate, but close enough, so don't flame me.

Let's say you are taking option no.1 which is 2 months @ 3.58% and 15 months @ 4.28%, placing $100,000 for example.
That means you are placing at $100,000.00 for 17 months.

The first 2 months your interest would be $100,000 x 3.58% per annum (=$3,580.00), divide by 12 months and then multiply 2 months = $596.67

The next 15 months your interest would be $1000,000 x 4.28% per annum (=$4,280), divide by 12 months and multiply by 15 months = $5,345.00

Therefore total interest you receive for 17 months is $596.67 + $5,345.00 = $5,946.67.

To get average interest amount per annum, you divide the $5,946.67 by 17 months and multiply by 12 months which is 5,946.67/17 x 12 =$4,197.65.

Therefore average interest would be $4,197.65 divided by RM100,000 and multiply by 100 (to get percentage) = 4197.65 / 100,000 x 100 = 4.19765% per annum (which is close enough to 4.2%)

The above is my understanding and should it not be correct, please by all means correct me.

Lol... wokay but... at placement rate of 1:1 , isn't it for $100,000 for for 2 months and another of the same amount at 15 months... that's what I am wondering on...

So losing the interest for the next 13 months for the first $100,000, or renewed at board rates... no?

Thank you for your calculation effort btw thumbup.gif

Their hotline is telling about the CNY bundle product and has no idea about this at all... dry.gif
