QUOTE(bbgoat @ Oct 29 2020, 04:16 PM) I usually call or WhatsApp the officer or manager in charge of FD ahead of time. They are the one that I already made contact before. The nego rate may need HQ approval depends on amount and percentage increase. Typically 0.05% branch can approve, more than that they will/may need HQ to approve. The highest nego rate I ever got was like 0.15% to 0.25% (forgot already actual figure), that was >6 years ago. Okay thanks. Will try my luck.

QUOTE(gsc @ Oct 29 2020, 10:00 PM) effectively rate up to 2.4% How do you get that - Does the SA bear any interest? My calculation is 2.086 with 0% interest for the SA portion... maybe I am just lousy at maths

QUOTE(gsc @ Oct 30 2020, 07:45 PM) I thought banker cheque will be treated differently. Long waiting. If I knew earlier I would have probably IBG or rentas the fund. Or may be just renewed at Uob, 9 months 2.25%. Today bank in cheque, Tuesday only can open the FD accounts. I was at UOB today and didn't see that 9 months 2.25% promo

QUOTE(GrumpyNooby @ Oct 30 2020, 09:44 PM) Did you ask them first? They won't simple display that freely like public info.  I didn't because I am uplifting from UOB and no fresh fund. My branch usually display these promos. And the staffs also would tell me. But today didn't even ask why I am doing the cashier order  For some reason, UOB and BR were so pack today.

BR FD placement using cashier order/banker's cheque used to be effective on the date of placement. But my latest one starts on the day it got cleared. Placed 30-Nov, starts on 3-Nov, shown at online portal. Will inquire about this when I go and collect the cert later. Or anyone know whether BR has change its rules?

QUOTE(??!! @ Nov 3 2020, 10:56 AM) Called BR end Aug before going to branch re effective date of FD via cashier order/banker's cheque . Was told effective date will after cheque clearance.(similar to personal cheque) So, did a rentas to my saving account 1st before going down to the branch. So it's true. My last placement date on 1st September was still okay, following the date of placement. Would have done rentas too if I know earlier.

QUOTE(bbgoat @ Nov 3 2020, 11:39 AM) Have not been to BR for last 3 mths. They changed the rules ? Did u get the FD cert later not the day u placed the FD on 30 Oct ? The teller asked me to collect today, which is normal for my branch. I suspected something was amiss when I made the placement as she seemed to be unsure of the system and had to get assistance. Usually she is very efficient. So when it didn’t appear at online portal, I know something is unusual and today it appeared with today as effective date.

QUOTE(nugget_piece @ Nov 10 2020, 04:12 PM) hi sifus, i got offered a fd promotional placement by a financial advisor. the rate is better than the current base rate for eFD. sounds a bit too good to be true esp during covid times. it is a traditional fd placement with physical cert. how do i know if this is promotion is legit? anything i should take note? at least reveal the rate / bank... so that we can share if we have heard of the offer too

QUOTE(nugget_piece @ Nov 11 2020, 08:52 AM) thanks for the responses. sorry, i wasn't clear. I had read it again, it's not a promotion but rather a promotional bundle from Maybank. apparently need to sign up other products. so nvm already. cant commit too many financial plans at these times. As you have rightly pointed out, if it is too good...better be extra cautious
