contestchris i think it won't matter as you'll still get charged annual debit card fees

otherwise, it'll be a good loophole right? order debit card but don't activate. don't get charged and yet enjoy good forex rates

With credit cards, the first annual fee / service tax is only charged at card activation.

I wonder if the same will apply.

It might be a loophole, it's been 4 days and they still didn't charge it, meanwhile I've already done my transaction.

I have done it. In at 4.212 (RM3,001.50), out at 4.184 (RM2,981.10). Lost RM19.95. Hopefully gain back at least triple.

I seem to be missing something here. Why would you buy and then sell?

if you alway have .100k deposit, you may exchange RM3000 to USD each month, you will get extra 1.6% each month (rm131.50), then exchange it back, it lose rm20 only. am i correct? if you dont exchang it back you can plan foreign weelky term deposit got high interest too 4%/annual. (min placement usd2k)

I currently have ~2k in my RHB USD account. How do we place the Term Deposit (1week~) to get higher interest?

Go to the app. There is a placement button there.
