My experience is different. Average just around 30 mins inclusive of waiting time.

First time placement takes longer because I opened SA and also during MCO.
*
It took me total 30 minutes also. The CS said every FD placement is like new account opening. But still less time than
initial opening of accounts at BI. Weird thing about them is the digital signature with CS before passing the FD cert to u.

Each banks in M'sia has its own procedure..........

Just came back from BI to renew my FD. Whole process takes 30mins. Counter 15mins issue new cert and another 15mins at CS counter to sign document. Overall comfortable experience.

I find BI CS service much better than BR, MBSB. Even compared with some other banks.

Placing FD there is a pleasant experience though their procedure is a bit weird before collecting the FD cert. Have to
digital sign before getting the FD cert.

Add: Especially for large sums of over 100k.

irritating only, you want to place Fd go with cheque, form siap isi
main counter  free , no customers but we cant go straight

we must go see the side counter girl who handles opening accounts etc
to get documents printed out , she usually busier attending enquiries etc
then only can go main counter  do Fd cert

sudah dapat cert  still cannot go back!
again must wait to see the side counter girl again
for her to record sign digitally

circus system.

so far my FD matures all out only, no in.
all can withdraw online easy.

QUOTE(Human Nature @ Jul 4 2024, 11:16 PM)
Different branch different procedure then. I only have the counter staff handling all. Only need to go to the side counter when opening SA.
*
BI counters are courteous. MBSB still has to go CS then counter and their system damn slow. BR only 1 steps/counter.

But BI FD procedure is 3 steps, weird ! But @Human Nature said only 1 step. Penang side 3 steps ?

Anyway all 3 I got active FD placements for now.

Still 3 steps but handled at the same station.

BI is quite aggressive. Just received a phone call reminding I have some FDs maturing next week and can come to renew at promo rate. Even my RM from other banks don’t bother to remind of maturing FD.
I didn’t try from app before as prefer using desktop for such matters.
*
Ya, still SAME station and 3 steps for your case.

BI do call people with new FD promo.

I will continue to "top up" in BI for the mean time.

Last week asked and can get 12 mth 3.9% for high amt for AmBank.

QUOTE(joeduff22 @ Jul 17 2024, 10:59 AM)
Hi may i check with you guys about the FD promotion in Bank Rakyat, the 4% promotion rate require RM10K earmark in saving account, so this earmark RM10K only for one time? What if today i place RM100K and earmark RM10K saving account today, next month if i want to place another RM100k , whether need to earmark another RM10K in saving account?
*
10k earmark only once. Subsequent placement no need any earmark. That is the good point for this BR promo.

Muamalat cannot call branch, all handled by one call centre number. Call centre staff are not that well-versed. Anyone got direct contact number for PJ Jaya One Branch, can please share? Thanks
*
Sorry no contact for PJ.

I got the contact from a relative. WhatsApp and have been getting info from the lady. Including the lowering down from 100k to 50k for the 4.05% and
4.1% (6 mths FD/SA promo).

So may have to visit the branch then get your contact from there. smile.gif

Via cashier order? Placement date on same day or need for it to be cleared? Planning to move my Ambank Trusavers combo to Muamalat too
*
Already enquired before going there. Can use BC for same day placement. No need to wait for cheque clearance. But not sure about personal
cheque.

I used BC from AmBank, the True Saver/FD combo matured.

Another point is for those not looking for mthly profit, no need to open SA.

I got debit card to open online acct to access the mthly profit.

Bonus interest not paid on maturing date. I forego them and withdraw all.

Ya, I also withdraw the TS amt together with the FD and moved them to Muamalat.

But did not see more Chinese in the branch that I went. Maybe because of the min 50k for the promo or because of other reasons.
