I give up.
Firstly even after repeated verbal reminders I wanted monthly interest and told them I was rushing for time, I just trusted them to do the necessary for me.
To my horror, after office hour only they call to inform me everything kawtim but instead of Islamic with monthly interest, they accidentally put into conventional for me.
Pathetic!!!
So I go over again to another branch and the officer told me the monthly interest is only applicable for Islamic normal rates, not the preferred campaign.
So I gave up even though it would have been nice to get few hundreds bucks per month rather than few thousand a year later.
Sigh!
Cimb officers really dunno much about their own products at all!
And no leng lui to rest my sore eyes too.

... very normal happening to me also ... at one time the bank teller that did it to me got promoted behind a desk wearing a tie ... make me wonder why the bank is not concern about their stuff not being knowledgeable about their product ... 4.5% bank mumalat is really good ... smile.gif ...

latest FD rate, Affin giving 4.25% for 2 years and Muamalat giving 4.3% for 1 year, and why people not putting money there..., instead they are looking for MBB, HLB, CIMB and others.... which probably giving around 4%-4.1%, not really fully understand why....?

... time / convenient / amount and each depositor has their own criteria / demand / needs as well ...

... frankly, i dun know why people would want to mix their fix deposit with funds, when banks dun guarantee returns ... you might as well take the risk yourself with other better and reputable fund manager available with wider choices in the market ... have been following this tread for the longest time ... great work and contribution ...
