From the SC PSA website it state that the rate will be valid till 31Jan2021, therefore even OPR cut should not affect their rate as per TnC
*
They had revised once in May 2020.
So not guaranteed that they won't revise until 31/02/2021

take PSA and apply for a JOP card. if you have insurance / petrol.. you can use the card and load the rest up to 2.5k to bigpay and withdraw. That will allow you to meet the credit card spend for 3.6%

QUOTE(Tronoh @ Jul 19 2020, 08:41 AM)
alternatively, instead of JOP, take the visa platinum (no annual fee) and transfer to big pay just enough to meet 1k spend.

Feel funny that you guys kept proposing people to alter spending behaviour when he has already said that he specifically said that "Not paying any bills as I still live with family and my spending only around 500 per month, so can save a lot"? hmm.gif

Thanks for the idea. Transferring to big pay and withdraw does seem like a good way to fulfill the condition. Never thought of that before.
Will look into it.
If I can get the 3.6% by transferrring to big pay and withdraw while having the balance to break even with the RM6 charge. I dont see the need to open an FD unless I have more money to spare. I just started working and wont have the money to dump into FD anyway.
*
The Spend Bonus of 1.5% pa is limited to first RM 100k only.
Only thing beyond that amount will earn 2.1% pa.

*Provided no revision to the current rate.

Besides bigpay, is there any other e-wallet that allows you to withdraw money / transfer money to your bank accounts with minimal charge so that I can abuse it to get the 1.5% spend interest of SC PSA account?

As far as I know, boost, grabpay, and TnG ewallet don’t allow you to withdraw.
*
SarawakPay is the best e-wallet you can abuse.
ShopeePay also can be used for abuse too.

Anyone is using UOB One account?

Does the interest rate is giving out monthly 1st or 15th?

Since this saving account will need to tie to UOB credit card, does my annual card fee for my credit card will have any change and also debit card?

Can this One account set up can be done online without require to branch?
*
Yes, can open online

If you have PIB access, can also open from PIB:

Just to clarify the meaning of first RM 50k in this table for UOB One account:
[attachmentid=10548193]

If I keep my monthly saving about RM3k -4k and fulfill the 2 criteria, am I eligible for 1.65% pa interest for that month? Does the first RM50k means the minimum of monthly saving of RM50k and also fulfill the 2 criteria?
*
MAB up to RM 50k will earn 1.65% pa
Next RM 50k (MAB from RM 50,001 to RM 100,000) will earn 2.65% pa (max EIR = 2.15% pa)

And of course, all conditions need to be fulfilled.

MAB = monthly average balance

ok, in this case MAB 3k-4k and fulfill all conditions can get 1.65% pa and from RM50,001, the whole MAB is 2.15% pa? Right?
*
If your MAB is RM 3k to 4k, then you earn 1.65% pa
If your MAB is RM 50,001, then you earn 2.15% pa

note the term "maximum"

if MAB is 50,001. u earn 1.65% * RM50000 and RM1 * 2.65%. EIR is not 2.15%
*
The page and table has cautioned on the max EIR.

Hmmm, why the SC bank staffs never mentioned these to me and instead tried to sell me a package of "Savings Plan" + FD? I guess they only get commission thru this....

The thing I don't like about Saving Plans is the banks tie you up for many years and you cannot ever withdraw the capital, only the interest. Typically 10-20 years thing.

Or should I insist on the basic savings plus FD only.
*
The Savings Plan is to earn extra 2% Invest Bonus interest for PSA?

I'm not sure, but I was shown this plan they have going with Prudential, where you must commit to a sum to save every year and they pay a guaranteed payment annually. And then at the end of the maturity (when you are old and maybe dead and gone), they will pay a big lump sum.

The problem is, this one ties you up long term for 15 years I believe. Premature withdrawal will lead to loss of capital as the penalty.

That's why it is called "Savings Plan". biggrin.gif

I think the best option is to sign up for their Bancassurance or Unit Trust to meet the criteria to get 2% interest for the Saving Account which is 2.1% but will drop to 1.5% in Sept.

Put some money into their unit trust and then can get overall rate of 3.5% which is still very attractive.

What do you think?  biggrin.gif

Make sure the product you selected to commit will have a decent return; other you might as well invest yourself.

Then, the Invest Bonus is up to RM 20k for normal banking customer.
