Dude, you don't have to buy any investment product for the 3% promo.

MY FD in ambank was auto renewed at 2.05%. I wanted to redeem it and  transfer to another bank so that on transferring back it is regarded as fresh funds.
For the last 3 days I have been unable to redeem it .. error message is .. "unable to redeem because of technical error. Please try again in a few days"

Anybody has this same problem.
Their helpline is grossly inefficient. To confirm my identity they asked me some security questions. The trouble is the questions they asked are not what I selected!!

Placement is over the counter?

Thank you for your reply, Bro ...  thumbsup.gif

BR's 3.00% for 11 months & 2.8% for 7 months with monthly interest are still the best FD promo in the market so far..  thumbup.gif

Who can fight with Bank Rakyat??

Next meeting is on 7 Jul 2020. I have a major FD maturing on 6 Jul 2020. You don't know how happy I am laugh.gif

Do you think OPR will drop again on 7 Jul 2020?

Do you want to place FD in Bank Rakyat..?

Yes, i foresee very likely to keep decreasing as that’s what everyone is saying.

Will be making my UOB to BR routine again after lunch. To collect last week’s cert and make new placement. Already make a note to ask for free gift.

Maybe no more cut?

May's deflation not a reason for another OPR cut — economists

That will be the best. If the OPR rate is maintained, I believe banks will be brave enough to touch the 3% mark cheers.gif

Good job on updating. As much as summarizing just the best rate is good, having other options would be useful too. Just my 2 cents smile.gif .

Yeah I thought it was too good to be true too but she sounded confident. Outside of the 10k minimum, she didn’t mention any other caveats.  Might just pop into the branch on Monday to see what it’s about.

I have been to UOB branch every week in June. Heard nothing about 3.3% FD

Few days ago there was an article in the Star which shows how much our people have invested in FD. The tone of the article is our savings are excessive and therefore maybe interest rates should come down further to encourage more spending
*
And today's new asking people to spend and help Malaysia. All these are good from economic point of view, to revive the economy. However, it is human nature to save more and be prudent during hard times. To prepare for rainy days.

At the same time, there are talks about banks getting stressed due to the moratorium and now extension. So maybe it's time to offer higher rate to lock in deposits for cash flow? Or it doesn't work that way? Ignore me if sound stupid haha laugh.gif

Not attractive as have to place 30% in CASA. The effective rates range from 2.39% to 2.89% depending on the type of CASA and whether you are a normal or priority customer.
*
I would take 2.89 but only if it is 12 months. Highest among all with the exception of BR.

believe these limits are set by BNM, in order to monitor cash movement and curb money laundering.

BNM can increase the limit and set some necessary measure, for example anything above 50K to a certain value can be subjected to more stringent checking. Basically just replicate Rentas in an online form.
