Boost owned by Axiata? No wonder the promos so conservative

jacklsw86 boost is backed by RHB. it'll probably be fine. GX (grab + singtel) & Aeon mcm no traditional banks backing

based on my reading on the celcomdigi jar TnC, since the jar is available for unlocking (no need to pay phone bill) for entire Oct month, you only need to pay once this month to enjoy the 5% rate from Nov 1st-7th

previously seems like you need to pay one time for the jar itself to appear, then pay another time weeks later to keep the jar open. no need for that now

Based on the same logic, the amount you need in Birthday Jar to earn max interest of 3.42 should be just 24997.80 while for CelcomDigi Jar, to earn max interest of 6.83 should be 49959...Correct?

the extra RM43.20 is not enough to put into GX bank
QUOTE
  1. Fill up 5 special birthday & supermarket jars rm36.6 (5% become 10%)
  2. Fill up Boost 8x normal jars with rm50.84 (3.6% become 7.2%)
  3. Fill up Boost Saving account with rm73.20 (2.5% become  5%)
  4. Fill up all celcom digi special jar rm50k (5%)
  5. Fill up 5x special jars 5 x 25k (5%) one by one (forfeiting perk #1 above)
  6. Fill up 91.50 for 11 pockets in GX (2% become 4%)
  7. Fill up UOB one saving, min 100k (4%). if dont have, skip.
  8. Fill up 8x normal jars 8 x 50k? (3.6%) one by one (forfeiting perk #2 above)
  9. Place Go+ (3.41, no pidm) or Rize (3.3, with pidm up to 250k)
that's the accordance i guess as of now lol

and by end of the month need to plan transferring out especially those 5x 25k special jars

But if you think you can bear the risk of 50-60 MYR locked inside your eWallet

not an issue if you use it as your primary ewallet. You don't spend that much in 3-4 days?

i calculated it to be RM0.0012624 for 3.4% pa. I believe GO+ doesn't round down the RM0.0012 to RM0.00, so will leave it dormant for 9 days to see if it'll add up to RM0.01.

(withdrawn lumpsum to Boost @ Oct 3 10pm, so Oct 4 returns is for Oct 3's balance)

seem like the special jar is not showing the daily interest crediting log (last showed thursday).

but the interest do get credited and our total amount did increase.

if you are paranoid can always record down in excel sheet

btw, here's my refinements of cclim2011's instructions
  1. Fill up 5 special birthday & supermarket jars rm36.6 (5% become 10%)
  2. Fill up Boost 8x normal jars with rm50.84 (3.6% become 7.2%)
  3. Fill up all 6 special jars in multiples in RM73.20 (5%) (forfeiting perk #1 above) <- you'll still get the perks
    1. if the jar is celcomdigi jar, and it already has RM49,959 -> consider it full and move on to the next jar
    2. if it's the other special jars, and it already has RM24,997.80 -> consider it full and move on to the next jar
  4. Fill up Boost Saving account with rm73.20 (2.5% become  5%)
  5. Fill up 91.50 for 11 pockets in GX (2% become 4%)
  6. Fill up UOB one saving, min 100k (4%). if dont have, skip.
  7. Fill up 8x normal jars in multiples of RM101.68 (3.6%) one by one. you won't exhaust this unless you really have RM8mil (forfeiting perk #2 above) <- you'll still get the perks
any leftover funds, put into these
  • Place Go+ (3.41, no pidm) or Rize (3.3, with pidm up to 250k)

Today ledger missing, tmr money might missing.
You think it might be far fetched but , it just show the incompetence.
I'm not saying Boost is not good, it just makes me worry about my money , so if i seek 5% with worry in my head, i rather place at somewhere i felt safe.

you'll have a major heart attack if you pick Aeon (my experience) then 👇
QUOTE
aeon customer service really bad. can't transfer RM5 or RM15 out (there's only RM35 in the acct) and this is the type of advice given

these are the android version requirements
  • boost app android 5.0
  • bank android 11
so they won't allow bank withdrawals via boost wallet. too risky

ericlaiys can confirm interest not downgraded

QUOTE(TOS @ Oct 7 2024, 09:46 PM)
The "fullness" of the birthday jar implies that it is now impossible to withdraw the daily interests out from the jar.
*
unless if you already deposited (RM7,320.00-RM36.60) to that jar, you get to withdraw RM1 daily

TOS RM7,320 @ 5% pa gives you RM1 in interest daily. RM7,283.40 gives you RM0.995 aka rounded up to RM1 in interest

Locked in the sense that you cannot deposit into boost birthday jar (quota full)

You can still withdraw, just that Jars require you to withdraw at least RM1.00 and above. RM1.01, RM1.02 all permissible
