If I top up lets say RM5k via Boost (zero fees), planning to buy gold today

and later I changed my mind and not buying anything, but need to withdraw my RM5k

there shouldn't be any penalty nor any transaction/management fees on that RM5k top-up/withdrawal, right?

Only thing I lose is the 2 days withdrawal period, right?

btw, for an apps that lets you buy and sell gold accordingly to the current market price, it doesn't have a trending chart on the historical price is very appalling

I am not sure. Last time UOB announced can buy online but I didn’t follow up as I am not into gold investment

If I were to invest in gold, I would pick UOB because no fees and also cheapest. UOB give me more confidence also despite it is only paper gold. If I have larger amount, I would go for SPDR instead. Or keep the real coin or bullion.

yes, for UOB Gold Investment account, you can buy/sell via their online banking but during banking hours only

HelloGold x Boost Incredouble promotion is a bit nuts.

Source: https://www.hellogold.com/my/incredouble-savings/ (Please read T&C for full details)

Basically, you:
1. Make sure your account is KYC-ed and is "Pro" status.
2. Buy RM200 gold one-shot and pay via Boost.
3. Boost will give you back RM10 within 48 hours.
4. Don't sell any gold for 1 month+, you get another RM10 worth of it.
5. You can do this twice.

The entry & exit fees are 0.8% on weekdays, annual fee of keeping gold inside is 2%.

Correct me if I am wrong:

- If you buy and sell immediately, you get 3.4% ROI instantly.
- If you hold for 1 month, given no gold price fluctuation, you get ~8.4% ROI in 1 month.

nope, you won't get ROI that high for every RM200
don't forget buying & selling rate differs, and the 0.8% entry & exit rate

IF buying RM200 now and sell it off straight, selling price is around RM195
and that's IF you get the RM10 from Boost which is based on first come first served, you'll gain only RM5 or lesser
and you better pray the gold price will be higher in one months time, if it's lower, doubt the extra RM10 can cover your losses
