1) What does that 3.24 p.a effective rate mean? This is pure FD that does not bind with other investment or earmark savings right?
2) The criteria is to place 300k fresh fund to open Premier account, then another 50k minimum up to 300k for FD account? Or just 300k in the Premier account then eligible for the FD from the 300k in the Premier account?

I tried asking cs but different cs gave me different interpretation... rclxub.gif

Also, I read their branch queue is awful, anyone have experience? Do I need to expect 2 hours+ to get this done?

Thanks

If you place 4.28% for 6 months and 2.20% for the next 6 months the effective rate is 3.24%. It is a one time offer for new Premier customer.
You can make appointment at hsbc website, make sure you arrive on time, if you miss it, you get a long wait.
But they will likely try to sell you insurance and investment product when you sign up for Premier.

Disclaimer, I'm not hsbc Premier but it should be pretty much the same as other banks.

fd lock your money for 1 year @ 3.6%. CHY accounts is liquid funds @ 3.6%

UOB one account game isn't that difficult to play, just move RM2k in every month (and can move out immediately), then transfer rm50 via fpx 3 times (I always transfer to EPF).

Can use it to "renew" eFD, transfer in to UOB and FPX back to another banks eFD, both actions are counted in the game. Sometimes I can't decide which FD to use, just leave a few days in One account and it earns high interest too.
Really hope they don't nerf this account, though I do expect them to adjust to lower interest, as long as it is >3% I'm happy to use it.

but need min 100k untouched to get that %

Not exactly. It is very flexible. Eg. 50k for half month, 150k for 2nd half month, monthly average is 100k.

Why not worth it? Interest rate at 3.99% pa, though the period of placement is 45 days.

The 3.99% pa interest rate is higher than all FD and digital banks rate

50k at 3.99 for 45 days only nets extra rm80 (compared to the usual 3.60%). On top of that have to wait 1-3 months for the interest. Waiting so long for interest is already a big no. Wait 45 days + 3 months for extra RM80 ?!
Correct me if I'm wrong though.

This promo is frankly quite a joke. Had a similar promo when a new Branch opens near my place so I had a detailed look at tnc. 4.08% for 20k only, placing more amount requires signing up for privileged Account which means buying products. On top of that needs to be new customer. They just want to sell products in the end.
