If you use cheque need it be cleared 3 working days so u lose 3 days. Yes they open a new savings account for u and u need a debit card rm10 for online banking purpose unless u don’t online.

just collected my cert today , placed last friday.
they very curious how we know such deal 😂.
this bank is so quiet! literally nobody.

So you placed on 9th(Friday) and FD commenced from 12th(Monday)?
Not after 3 working days?

yes, but i can see saturday my personal cheque cleared.
friday i did before 12noon.

Normally, if you issue a cheque and deposit the chq before 4pm, money will be deducted from your CA in the evening. So Muamalat bank short change FD depositor 1 working days interest. But in your case was 3 days due to weekend, hence effectively reduce the FD rate to 4.067%p.a. Anyway still better than 4% though.

Let's list the banks that wait for the chq clearance to commence FD date:-

1) Muamalat bank.
2) Bank Islam.

In this day and age, still need to renew OTC? Incredible!
*
Just in case you are not aware, renew OTC gets better rate most of the time. Also, those who renew OTC, the amount involved usually large enough to warrant a trip to the bank.

On another note, BI reduced the remittance fee for OTC IBG from RM2 to 30sen and rentas @ RM2 per transaction.

Yes, just increase your MAB by 3k every month very easy to do, but must do it consecutively. So far I have already achieved 3 months. But the crediting is only done 2 months after you achieved each target (e.g. my achievement is June is credited in August for RM 30).

Is there monthly interest for this campaign?
*
Not stated in the ad. Take it as no.

For standard industry practice, FD 12 months and below usually don't get monthly interest unless specifically stated in the promo campaign.
Above 12 months, gets half yearly/quarterly/monthly interest.

With all the new BNM mandated 2FA enhanced authentication like cooling off period, APP approval, one designated registered device, digital token, no more html hyperlinks in SMS and email, I wonder how scammer still able to hijack the victim's bank account from the registered device.

Same as others, on hold amt released 1 day after FD matured.
I changed transaction limit days ahead to the max.

If want on the same day as FD maturity, have to go to MBSB and remind them to uplift the hold amt.

Now contemplating to go to Alliance Bank today or do eFD.  biggrin.gif

12mths 4.05% still available?

Alliance Bank FD promo:
I have just come back from USJ branch, I could not place the promo FD for 12 months @4.05%, instead, only the promo for 6 months @3.98% were still available.

Weird, don't tell me Alliance has separate quota for different tenures.
