I did place for the CIMB 4.2% 12 mth FD on 29/3. That is a different promo (for Preferred customer) where the branch need to get approval from HQ. No monthly interest option.
The current one for Preferred customer need to open CA and with monthly interest. Just started around 2 weeks ago.
Next month may go for it unless there is a better promo. I guess with bigger FD amount, then the 0.5% as compared to HL eFD will be more worth it (CA charges). Anyway HL eFD will end by Apr month.

I calculated 0.05% can already make some difference, so imagine 0.3% will make a lot more difference but problem is Bank Muamalat is not easily accessible even in Klang Valley & I don't know what background check will they do & exactly how long it will take.
Perhaps I can try the next round in June when I have other FDs maturing.

I mention islamic, they said, mana ada, semua sama sajer.
Are they BS-ing?
Sorry to mention these days our service industry is so bad that the customer educates the seller instead! I have done it more than once...
Also, sometimes they try to insist & correct you somemore which is when you need to be firm..
Here is the additional info you can show them (which I also did show):
