Wow, opening PSA is superbly fast at the booth; just few minutes!
I asked the bank staff on duty if any document needed for opening PSA. The designated bank staff at the booth asked me if I have SC credit card and I said yes. Then she just asked for me IC for biometric verification and print out the slip. She even filled the forms for me. No need to present at the branch at all. I did ask if debit card is required and she said not necessary needed. Once completed, she gave me a free gift of SC KLM backpack.

QUOTE(LostAndFound @ Feb 15 2020, 10:23 PM) As mentioned above, without debit card you won't be able to get the credit card spending criteria fulfilled. So you won't get 4% rate. Thanks for the reminder. I have forwarded the TnC and highlight Clause 15 to her. I asked her to go to clarify with her team/superior. If debit card is needed and FOC, no harm to get it.

QUOTE(markedestiny @ Feb 18 2020, 10:26 AM) TS, it seems like your thread is getting traction, doesn't seems like less people are talking about it. This is one of the better products coming from from SCB CASA with interest rates that could challenge the FDs yet with flexibility of deposit and withdrawal... As for the debit card, just get it as you can withdraw from ANY bank ATM with MEPS without the withdrawal fee of RM4 which is waived after you meet the min deposit amt. But note not to withdraw from ATM (non-bank) located inside 7-11, the withdrawal fee is not waived off according to the bank. You meant those MEPS ATM machine which are not associated to any bank?

QUOTE(Eurobeater @ Feb 18 2020, 07:00 PM) Then I suppose when interest rates go back up and another high yielding saving product comes along, migrate again lol This trend will sure happen. Have you see any bank loyalty in the FD thread?  Even the coldest bank like BI, BR, MBSB and Bangkok Bank, they also storm. This post has been edited by GrumpyNooby: Feb 18 2020, 07:02 PM

QUOTE(smartfreak @ Feb 19 2020, 09:43 PM) I received call from standard chartered bank staff asking me whether want to lock rm3k in my PSA until 31 March to get rm50 cash back. I just gave them the green light to do it. Anyone receive the same call also? What you meant by "lock'? Your MAB always 0?

QUOTE(smartfreak @ Feb 19 2020, 09:58 PM) Meaning if you have rm10k. You can only use rm7k and the rest rm3k will locked. I see! The amount is being earmarked. I'm also trying to figure out what trigger them to offer such deal. Perhaps MAB is always zero or low?

QUOTE(vince-90 @ Feb 20 2020, 12:35 AM) How you created? Official portal? Any documents needed? Quite hassle for me to travel to branch to just open an account.  I submitted an account opening at the booth in the shopping mall on last Saturday. The one who performed my application is bank staff not credit card agent. Since I have SC credit card already, no documents required. I just provided IC for biometric verification and the bank staff at the booth filled up the account opening form for me.

Goal is just to hit 4% only. The rest is not worth it unless you have too much idle money.
