Based on my experience with few banks, most used the board rate. One of them seem to use the last rate on maturity as I calculated the add'l interest given which is more than the board rate.

Anyway we have to ask to get this though some banks may not entertain it.  biggrin.gif

From my experience so far HSBC and HLB systems auto-calculate the weekend interest based on promo rate. There's no standard guideline from BNM regarding this?  hmm.gif
*
my experience with one PB branch is they use board rate for the weekend interest calculation.. but you have to withdraw on the 1st day after the weekend/public holiday to be entitle for the weekend interests.

Rm 30000 @ 4.08% for 12 months at Bank Rakyat. 
First time in my life I received a valuable hamper from a bank.
Normally, I get only empty Ang Pow envelopes.
Thank you Bank Rakyat.
*
is it 300k? else the hamper could easily add another 0.1~0.2% to the effective interest

Anyone knows whether we could provide instruction on FD upon maturity for Bank Rakyat if we are overseas on the maturity date?

I was told by one BR officer over counter that I can't do anything but let it auto-renew. This is unlike other banks which accept signed letter instruction.

Which bank accept ? Maybank also dont accept after FD cert has been printed. Instruction On Maturity need to be predetermined.
*
Yes, I have done that a few times with Maybank. I leave my FD certs together with a signed letter to the branch manager to act according to the instructions (normally close and transfer all balances to saving accounts) upon maturity when I was overseas.

Does this indicate that eGIA normal placement rate would dropped further? Because the effective rate of first 6 mths campaign placement is just 3%, while normal eGIA placement through online now is 3.45%. So need to really place 8 mths or full 9 mths under campaign to get higher effective rate. This is no difference with real FD placement with bank while the fund is protected by PIDM some more.

doesn't matter

if rate not attractive just move on to other promos.

no need kill braincells just to analyze this little promo.

Refer to TnC:
"5. GIA campaign placements can be made over the counter (OTC) only."

This promo is different from e-GIA.

Guys, a quick question regarding this: Hong Leong Bank “Payday Special August 2017 Online FD

What happens after 6 months of tenure if i choose to continue using it? Still 4.07% p.a?

No, most likely back to board rate.

For HLB FD Promotion, the T&C stated that even the targeted fund size is not met, there is possibility the bank may award Eligible customers with extra interest. I'm so curious how the bank will compute the extra interest. Probably will be (Accumulated Fund / Targeted Fund Size ) x 0.18% ? Currently, the accumulated fund has achieved more than 50% of the targeted fund size
*
Not sure anyone joint the HLB FD promo almost 8 months ago. If so did you get the 0.18% extra interest or only the stated 4% interest?

Need to choose "credit to account" instead of "add to principal" under profit payment to be eligible for promo rate. Can't uplift for wrong placement, have to wait for next day sad.gif

I put quite a lot of funds in PBB eFD.

I just notice that my fd is split into two different parts - Islamic and Conventional fd. Before I normally click on the Fixed Deposit tab to look at my fd. Now i also need to click on Islamic Term Deposit as well for the rest of my fd. Very troublesome having two different areas to check.

On the plus side is you get separate PIDM protections of 250k each.

Info for those still keen on AmBank 12 month FD @ 4.3% for Signature customers.

AmBank informed me that I'm still under Signature status (despite my AUM having fallen below RM200k since November last year). I'm not sure how often they review the status (if at all?).

For those who still have signature status currently despite not having AUM of RM200k, you can still enjoy the above promotion. And even better, there is no minimum fresh funds which must be deposited i.e. there is no need to top up AUM to RM200k👍
*
Is it possible for us to check whether we have signature status online?

Good. Just got mine as well. 1 question is on maturity will the principal be renewed or credit to affiliate account automatically?

Edited: in Amonline it shows "Profit payment instruction on maturity: Credit To Account" which is good, can FPX and no need to make another trip to the bank

Some banks have Basic SA account which is free. Someone posted that actually all Banks suppose to provide this as required by Bank Negara but they diam diam don't tell customer this option. For example, my CIMB SA Basic no fees.

I got basic CIMB SA with free debit card required for internet banking, but they disable withdrawal function so practically no use.
