Went to alliance on Friday, no more 4% for Senior.

Any where else with 4% beside uob?

RHB FD/CMD-i DP Campaign
12 months 4.00% p.a. for ordinary non-premier deposit minimum 50k
start 2 Feb 2017, end 30 April 2017
interest paid on maturity.

Dunno anything about 4% for Alliance and UOB. Maybe something expired?

Actually they already feng shui-ed for you:

RM30k x 4.10% x 8 months (243/365) = RM818.88

But maybe not that figure in the end since hibah paid by Nov and the interest credits monthly =D

Thanks for the fengshu insight. biggrin.gif rclxms.gif

Fengshui b1Mbo also looks at the fengshui calendar and the heavens besides figures and other forms and factors. She says the period of good luck placement for 30k is from 9 to 30 January 2017 where there are 243 days and RM 818.88 interest!!!. rclxms.gif After that the bulan (moon) shifts to the wrong sky house (whatever she means by that) and there is no special benefit as there are only 242 days and RM 815.51 interest!!!. shocking.gif

She warns to beware of simplistic fengshui adverts, advice and calculations which do not give the full picture, misleading the non-expert fengshui followers. cool2.gif devil.gif

Im opening account at branch now..

Hmmm...it seem that the eHLB is congested.

EXPECTED - the capacity to handle the eFD thru the FPX processes and the effects of people rushing in last minute, error processes made by newbies, email notifications and printing problems. The system probably can handle somewhat less than RM 1 million per hour as shown by the uptake figures. 

Would like to ask if there any minimum amt to place for efd to enjoy the rate?

YES RM 10k is the minimum requirement.

Is the maturity period of this efd promo is 8mths means i can lift up on end of 8th month?

NO mention of continuation after 8 months. Assume the principal will go into your HL savings account connected to this eFD. Anybody know for sure about the small print on this?


Do i need to open fd account at branch to make the efd placement faster or it actually will generate over the eHLB?

NO NEED and won't help at all. Not like some other banks eFD where  you must have already opened a FD OTC before can do eFD.

Thanks

Thanks for the info..hmm...someone in office said if not done today, dont worry.  wait fot Tmr.......? Good news?

If HL wants that RM 888,888,888, probably have to extend to 18 March. Even 8 March a bit shaky technically, since customers education not adequate and still blur despite earlier Tuesday promo and over 1 month of this promo, and maybe some improvements in customer handling and advice?.
It is interesting to see how HL team handles practical implementation of something new in fintech. smile.gif

That depends whether any other bank wants to offer 4.20%, 4.25% or 4.28% p.a. as their March-April promo. Can you guesstimate which banks need to and can possibly do this, and which banks already eliminated in the contest? rclxms.gif rclxms.gif

Oh...the non-working-day paid interest means a sum of additional interest over those who not paying on non-working-day?

How about HongLeong and Public Bank and CIMB? icon_question.gif

There are 5 categories of banks.

Those who state at placement what they will pay.
Those who pay.
Those who do not pay.
Those who pay or may not pay after complain etc etc.
Those whose calculation is so strange, nobody sure what is happening. brows.gif brows.gif

RM 500 minimum per placement for 60mths at 4.30% normal Bank Rakyat board rate.
If want interest to be creditted into Bank Rakyat CASA each month, the minimum is RM 5,000.

By the way, I went over to MBSB, the counter girl said current promo is 4.05% for 12 months. Thought i saw in this forum some one mentioned 60 months 4+ %. She looked puzzle and said no such promo
*
MBSB only have normal board rates for 60 months for Islamic and Conventional FD. No promo for 60 months.

For conventional FD,

49ners (for those 49 years and above) - Individuals (not old enough to qualify)

Interest paid % p.a.

Monthly - 4.05 - 4.00
Quarterly - 4.10 - 4.05
Maturity after 60 months - 4.20 - 4.10

These rates are lower than Bank Rakyat normal 60 months board rate, and the new Ambank 60 months promo for Senior's Special. To have monthly interest payment:=
MBSB 1k, BR 5k, Ambank Senior's Special promo 10k.

Hi sifus, i see alot of good rates (4%++) being mentioned here from branch bank but I couldn't find any from official website. Do you go bargain with the bank counter/ service of the branch?

Assuming I have RM 40,000 for FD, should i try to bargain with the branch bank or just search for promotions available from official website?
*
Banks' official websites usually will mention their normal board rates, but not necessarily all their various products.
Banks can bear the cost of producing and showing large or long running promos for general public in newspaper and website, but may have some cost benefit and updating problems when dealing with short running, not too attractive promos or niche promos. So it is understandable not to have some promos not shown in banks official website.
Usually I just go to an area with a lot of banks, and take a stroll around and ask the receptionists or counter staff what FD promos and brochures they have. I normally try to avoid telephone enquiry, websites and talking to customer service people.
Normally 40k is not enough for bargain with banks.

try MBB if you have saving account

This HongLeong Connect eFD offers by FPX method - any other banks changed their programs so can do multiple 30k placements besides keep shifting money to Maybank M2U for this offer?
Besides the eFD placement, any idea whether can do similar multiple FPX for paying many others above 30K by using M2U or other banks when redirected by other vendors? I mean is this a special thing between HLConnect and M2U only or can similar thing be done for other vendors/M2U?

tongue.gif I guess then I was "lucky" !

So far have not experienced problem with their moving to working day issue on FD maturity.

Just April month, I have 3 Mondays that the FD matured (moved to Monday). "Unfortunately" next Monday one turned out to be a NEW holiday.  tongue.gif
*
UOB and BR had been adjusting all my Friday FD placements for 1 year to mature on Monday for extra longer periods.
The interest for the extra 2 days is creditted separate from the normal interest maturing 1 year later on Saturday for UOB. Usually paid extra 2 days besides the 1 month interest up to Saturday for BR payment of interest monthly FD.
.
In the case of BR FD maturing on the new Israk dan Mikraj holiday on Monday 24 April, please tell us whether creditted as 2 days interest, or 3 days interest, or 2 days and 1 more day interest so that we know what to expect especially for NEW holidays.
The question is related to what happens on specially declared one time holiday for a variety of reasons like election, celebration of sports win, funeral, installation, etc.

Only received verbal info on telephone from banks, no black and white. Will place FD on confirmation actually beat the others when I visit.

Only problem is whether RHB and Bank Rakyat will come out with promos with better rates next week. Always a problem placing if during first two weeks of month. Am trying to shift to placing on third week of month as a means to ensure get the best rates for various tenors.

for the member who ask regarding the effective day, frankly say i have no idea.....
i did upload the receipt for u to see......

for my case,i reach cimb around 3.45pm with my HLBB banker cheque.....
the branch manager got say maybe cant do it coz after 4pm they cant do verification.....
so i do not care about the effective date as long as i no need to queue again the following working day....

but as u can see my FD receipt,it show effective day is the exact day(i go on last friday 05/05/2017)
but the maturity is 06/11/2017...kinda weird coz normally FD maturity is 1day earlier(which suppose is 04/11/2017).....
i have no idea actually....mayb coz my turn reach after 4pm?so they cant do verification or other reason i really dunno.....
*
4 November is Saturday, 5 November is Sunday. Looks like CIMB FD program is smart enough to put maturity date as Monday 6 November 2017 after checking and calculating like some other banks.

But did CIMB print the interest or the final amount as some other banks do?
