I am not going to say that I am a experience user because I took up trading not too long ago. To answer your question below
1. I normally transfer one lump sum over to my trust account at HLeB because the interest rate they gave is 2.6% which is better than i keep it in my CASA account. So, I seldom do the transfer. If I remember correctly, Its overnight depends on what time you transfer. If do it in the morning, i think can see by the same day.
2. HLeB is using Excel Force as their vendor (in malaysia, its either Excel force or N2N). As I already familiar with Excel Force platform, I find it more user friendly. This is very personal though.
3. I trade little bit of foreign stock only as a start. I dont use real-time because its chargeable as my trading volume is not big enough. Delay is good enough for me.
4. This is the reason why I stick with HLeB. Their dealers' service level is very very good. Polite, friendly and at the same time pretty knowledgeable. I have tried other broker before and I still find HLeB to be the best in terms of service level.
5. This is a very tricky question. As I am a fan of HLeB, of course I will rate HLeB higher than CIMB or MBB. To me, CIMB quite cocky and very proud of themselves. Hence, when I ask some amateur question, they did seems happy to answer. This is just my personal experience and is not representative. As for MBB, I dont know as I did not have experience with them.
