Banks usually aren’t that strict about this, from what I’ve experience. Some will let it slide if you top up a lil bit to count as “fresh funds.” Just try talking to them
*
Anyone has actual experience with Bank Islam on ways of making fund "fresh" by withdrawal and re-deposited WITHIN THE SAME DAY?

One officer of Bank Islam told me today that they have the rule of 14-days timeframe ie fund withdrawn will become FRESH only if deposited after 14 days ? bye.gif

BI OTC can be uplifted online too. Haven’t try yet but this is what I was told previously.

Recently i did duitnow OTC and received the fund instantly, foc. So no need to do Rentas anymore. Anyone know what is the limit for this?

Which bank did you perform OTC fund transfer by DUITNOW? I was told not all bank offer this service.

I've made fund transfer with Bank Muamalat OTC by DUITNOW, it is surprisingly FAST, fund arrived at receiving bank INSTANTLY, much more "rentas" than RENTAS, and the best part is the DUITNOW service is FOC ie ZERO bank charges thumbup.gif

So, whoever is withdrawing and transferring fund out these days, instead of RENTAS, try checking with the bank whether they offer DUITNOW service.

Just heads up to those holding BIMB Sapphire debit card, TDT does not contribute towards the min eligibility amount. Annual Fee of RM10.00 will be charged upon renewal if the customer does not meet the eligibility criteria.

Huh? Aiyooooo ! I was issued the Sapphire Debit Card today, the officer told me since I deposited the PW-TDT placement, I've been tagged as PWB (Premier Wealth Banking) members, thus automatically eligible for Sapphire Debit Card with ZERO ANNUAL FEE mad.gif ranting.gif

Not true..

To be eligible for the Sapphire debit card, one need to have AUM of above rm 200k except those account based on Qard concept. TDT is based on Murabarah concept.

The rm10 is for issuance Fee and there is no annual fee thereafter,  as long as one meet the definition of Premier Wealth. Check the PDS
*
There could be a possibility that TDT (Term Deposit-i Tawarruq) is not considered as Investment Account, while TIA (Term Investment Account-i) is.

Any one here did a FTA-1 Bonus Booster placement with Bank Muamalat with Monthly Interest ?

Did Bank Muamalat called to notify that they've actually made a mistake for allowing monthly interest for this FTA-1 Bonus Booster promotion, and would like to terminate it with immediate effect, honoring whatever interest that had already been credited to the saving account for the past few months, but to end the previous placement with immediate effect, converting to new placement for a new tenure of another 12 months but interest payable on maturity.

I have officially rejected their above proposal, requesting them to honor what has been agreed at time of placement ie continue with the monthly profit payment till maturity. The bank officer said they will notify and refer to higher authority for further actions.

Bank Muamalat rectification action is very wrong, and I believe we could refer and file in case with Bank Negara if Bank Muamalak is taking the action of terminating and changing their T&C half way through by force.

Me!

Yeah, they called me this afternoon and said some technical mistake in that one particular FD (with monthly interest).  They said something like will extend my FD for 2 mths with same 4% interest. I didn't catch them saying no more monthly interest.

I was not really paying attention as I was having lunch. That's fine with me as my other FDs with them no monthly interest.

I already suspected this monthly profit is too good to be true because what if the FD is cancelled and funds withdrawn before the maturity?

I told her to send me an email and she said okay.
*
Bank Muamalat had actually made the following "technical mistakes" on this FTA-i Bonus Booster promotion product:

1) Lack of TRAINING and PRODUCT BRIEFING to staffs at ALL LEVELS, from Account Opening, Teller, Supervisor, Fund Manager up till RM.

2) Computer system failed to DISABLE the option of "monthly dividend/profit/interest" from selection during placement.

3) Discovered the mistakes too late. FTA-i Bonus Booster was launched since March 18, and they discovered about the mistake ONLY THIS WEEK, after the lapse of nearly 4 months, which is totally unbelievable.

Which branch did you place your FD? I placed mine at their HQ Branch in Jalan Melaka.  I recall reading in this thread that some mentioned other Bank Muamalat branch does not offer monthly interest. So, is it only their HQ branch staff are incompetent?

For those with monthly interest agreed during placement, they will keep their promise and honor the monthly interest, any new placements done beginning July 2025 were without monthly interest, which they had highlight to depositors during placement,

3.85% or 3.75%? When I texted the Bank Muamalat officer yesterday, she told me it is 3.75%.

3.85% is special retention rate offered for MATURING FTA-i Wow promo to rollover and keep the deposit with them while 3.75% is offered for any NEW PLACEMENT under FTA-i Bonus Booster promo

Withdraw from Muamalat matured FD. Was offered 3.85% but no mthly interest. Still withdraw out with BC. Their BC was rather fast compared with
other banks taking some time to issue BC.

Went to BR for 3.83% with 1k lock in. Found out the 1k is in investment account! Anyway already proceeded with the FD with mthly interest. Subsequently no need the 1k lock in. The investment acct takes sometime to create.

3.85% is pure FD/FTA rate ? or TIA rate?
