Just enquired account opening for Affin.
Best rate for Invikta min 50k OTC.
Invikta is current account , yearly fees 10rm. Get ATM and Credit Card.
They asked for salary to qualify, > 10k should be fine.

Hi guys,

The BI 4.5% for 12 months FD, is it safe to put more than 250k as PIDM only protected up to 250k. First time use BI, so feel a bit insecure. Anyone put more than 250k?
*
PIDM protection is like a fallback incase shit happens. I am sure many would not let this be a determining factor. EPF also can go missing if the country collapse.

I didn't think of country collapse or bankrupt sort of thing. I'm more concerned on the security of the bank as previously saw many cases of money suddenly gone missing from bank account even for FD (other banks). Like being hacked or insider job or something. But BI really is the best choice now coz they really offer the highest rate now.
*
if kena hack worst, bank will say not bank fault, user problem. not sure pidm will cover you , long time investigate to close case.

Called Bank Islam on 4.5% for 12 months, however they say the 4.5% is not guarantee as will change if the OPR change. So this is not a FD?
*
banks are best at disclaimer...
if remember correctly, all banks t&c will say no guarantee. trust BI to be not so efficient to change in 1 year compared to bigger banks.

from MBB t&C

BI practices hardcopy FD slip. if I place FD on 2 different branches, upon maturity can I withdraw from 1 branch or need to go back to the respective branches?

Pls update us again tomorrow if the rate remains 4.05%

It ll be helpful to siudai avoid making a trip there for the coming renewal. 👌

My other fd matured on 1Jul24, it got renewed at 2.1%, so i withdrew.
Strangely this one states 4.05. In a way, I like how inconsistent BI is, a learning and growing bank

Yes, this seem to be a common thing with BI.  I also withdrew mine to my BI Savings AC and went to the BI today and place it OTC @ 4% for 12mths.  Check with them and they say can't do online.  Not sure why they make it so complicated.... ;o))

guess i will just drop by BI after lunch
