Sifus,

For HL new online fd promo, transfer out existing fund and transfer back to HL account can be treated as new fund?
*
You must place the FD via FPX, nothing to do with transfer in or out.

Hi guys for the additional 0.1% for HLB FD promo, does it apply to existing placements? Or do we have to withdraw and make new placement? When I checked, it is still 4.0 in my current placements.
*
It applied to all that have been placed under this promo.
The extra 0.1% will only given after the 8 months tenure finished.
The system will only show the 4.0%, as the 0.1% is extra interest given after the FD matured, and before 10 Nov.

QUOTE(tsssusan09 @ Feb 26 2017, 04:09 PM)
Can make placement on 28 Feb? What's mean by FPX? If by FPX, it's meant by transfer fund by using Hong Leong Connect or manually transfer fund from other banks by using Instant Transfer?
*
FPX is a payment /transfer method that under MyClear (subsidiary of BNM).

IBF and IBFT are not applicable in this online placement.

When you are placing the online FD through FPX, the HL Connect will redirect to your source of bank webpage to log in to make the FPX transfer.

Seems like promo FD rate is notching up a bit in March.

Higher LDR may be the reason.

i am interested to go for CIMB FD for preferred customers at 4.2%

I am from Singapore and my fund is with OCBC Johor Bahru branch. I do not have cheque. what if i want to take out money from OCBC to CIMB, I ask OCBC to issue a cashier order/money order payable to CIMB?

what if i lost the money order before i manage to present the money order to CIMB? Does it mean in theory anyone can go CIMB and "cash out" since the payee name won't have my name in it?

how to be preferred customers of CIMB?

thanks
*
No, the cheque payee should be under your name, not CIMB.

Just received this msg from my RM. What is the opinion of sifu here?

As spoken, XXX bank KLIBOR offer
to our customers now.

Year 1: 5.00%pa
Year 2-6: 4.55 X (4.55 - 3M KLIBOR)
# PIDM insured
# Principal Protected if held until maturity
# Zero charges

*T&c apply

Do not hesitate to contact me if you have any query
Thanks

This is not a FD.
It is a structured product, or specifically inverse floater KLIBOR structured product.

The payout of % is fluctuating with KLIBOR rate.
You can get zero return if KLIBOR surges to 4.55%.

FED raised interest rate by 0.25% to 1-1.25%, and forecasting 1 more hike this year  rclxms.gif  rclxms.gif  rclxms.gif
Can expect FD rate to rise along too  hmm.gif

Not much related.
Local FD rate is mainly affected by overnight rate by BNM, KLIBOR and interbank liquidity (LDR).

As long as MGS and RM level are not greatly affected by Fed move, the impact to local FD rate is minimal.

The CRS is for AEOI purposes, and many countries already started implementing.

This is really off topic but answers the question of why banks request for additional information like payslips, EA forms, etc.

All banks branches are supposed to serve a specific area.  When you apply for any new accounts in any of those branches, the banks will check whether you are inside or outside their coverage.

eg. Ambank Taman Connaught Cheras can open any accounts for you if you are from around Cheras.  If say, you are from PJ, then they will ask for additional info.

Whether you get asked or not, will depend on individual bank SOP, but suffice to say, try to make sure that your IC address is near a bank branch of your choice.
*
It has to do with the new CRS that banks need to adopt to meet the AEOI, whereby Malaysia is also one of the participant.

Banks need to report/submit the account holders situation (eg whether they have income at overseas aka tax resident there etc) especially on those so called "high value" account.

The new act regarding the CRS.

Why does walk in place FD have higher rate than online FD ~.~
*
Why bank offer promo FD rate?
Because they want to attract fresh new deposit into their bank.
So with OTC, staff can identify the deposit is fresh fund or not when you walk in.
But it is not the same for online placement, whereby no one is monitoring the deposit is fresh fund or not.

Currently online mechanism has not yet find a way to "identify" a online FD placement is a fresh fund money or not, except through FPX.
Online placement through FPX does offer quite good rate as well. So it is not about walk in must higher rate than online FD.
It is about "fresh fund" situation.

SA required for PBe internet banking. not for FD.

you asked to check FD online, that question i'm not sure. i was curious too because my parents' PBe accounts doesnt display their OTC FD placements (cert-based).
*
It can be viewed through online, if can't, then can ask the customer service to link the account, experienced before, there is a tick to link the account for online viewing, but only can be done by bank in charge person, provided the online account is same name with the FD account.


QUOTE(realitec @ Oct 18 2017, 10:23 AM)
Oh thanks.. i hope somebody could advise if i can check my FD placement online.. for PBB

Yes, but withdraw function is not allowed for FD that placed OTC.

Called up the number but the rate is not announced yet.

https://www.hlb.com.my/en/personal-banking/...ning-promo.html

Other Hong Leong branches now 4.2% promo for 10 months.

Any better deal out there?
*
Please be reminded, the promo has one condition that 10K needs to be earmarked in CASA to be eligible.

Edited (earmarked for 2 months)

About 10K needs to be earmarked in CASA to be eligible, are you talking about Hong Leong Bank Damansara City's 4.88%? or 4.2% FD promo?

The 4.2% one, which is clearly stated in the T&C.

1. For car loan calculation vs FD, please open a new topic for it, as it is a FD topic, we don't want topic being deviated too much.

2. Please do not post PM me. If want to deliver message via PM, just PM directly to the person, instead posting "PM me" in the open discussion section, which is redundant.
No one wants to read a discussion board with full of posting of "PM me".

Thank you for the corporation.
