I find HSBC Premier is quite good to me, but CitiGold just completely turns me off. My RM is just horrible and afterwards my experience opening up an Offshore account from SG was just downright horrible as well. I know for future experience I'll never bank there again. However I'm please to open with Maybank Private Banking and Maybank Offshore in Labuan. Its a much better experience so far. HSBC is an ok experience but their fees are just not worthwhile.

Premier banking. Fees? What fees?

If you don't meet the minimum criteria then HSBC will charge you RM150 per month.

Ah, right. If you don't meet the criteria but still want to be a Premier customer, then you have to pay for the privilege. So that's what the previous poster meant by fees not worth it, and I agree too. smile.gif

My CIMB Bank Manager today offer me to join preferred banking ?
is it really worth it?

By all means, take up the offer. But be aware of the terms and conditions -eg for some banks, hefty fees will start appearing in your account when you drop below the qualifying criteria.

CIMB seems to have a lower entry requirement:
QUOTE
This exclusive membership is by invitation only and is extended to customers with a minimum deposit of RM150,000, investment of RM100,000, mortgages of RM500,000 or by any other criteria determined at the discretion of CIMB Bank.

So an investment of 100K will qualify? Makes the other banks a lot tougher by comparison.

Hi, Just to check, which bank can deposit and withdraw FD online?
*
Also HSBC and RHB. HSBC cannot withdraw online before maturity, but RHB can, something they introduced recently. thumbup.gif

The worst (I know it's not your question, but I have to mention) is Public Bank. You deposit a FD, and then they ask you to pick up the paper certificate from your bank branch! They haven't caught up with the online Internet age yet, apparently.

First, you need an account with a branch in that country.

It doesn't mean when you have an account, you automatically to/from where you like, and when you like.
