Went to open a CIMB Starsaver and FD Acct at Raffles Place.

While waiting, was approached by one of their sales staff.

Turn out there is a promo for walk in customer only.

Open a Starsaver acct with at least $10K and $50 will be credited in.

There are 2 types of Starsaver acct: current account (with cheque book) and a savings acct ie 2 acct.

I opened both.

If I remembered correctly, the terms and conditions are:
1. The acct have to be maintained for at least 6 months.
2. I can't recall if this is only for customers who does not have any savings acct with CIMB.
3. The $50 will be credited in on the 3rd month.

U need to approach their mobile / roadshow sales banker, seems that counter staff cannot offer this promo.

opened the two accounts. treat them as 6-mth fixed deposit, put $10k in each.

With $10k,
u get 0.8% x $10k x 6 mths = $40.
u get another extra $50.
total interest = $90 for 6 mths.
$90/$10k = 1.8% interest

it's the best 6-mth 'fixed deposit' out there currently. albeit only for $10k. very wuhua lah... :)

effective interest is an additional 1%

Both of you are spot on.

I already had the intention to open this acct. Thus was pleasantly surprised to get more 'bonus interest'.

My spending is not high, a lot of promos for higher interest rate like OCBC 360 acct comes with too many T&Cs - I won't qualified for it.

I'm also not cash-rich, thus this acct and promo best suits ppl like me who just want something simple and easy.

Can someone check if it is valid for ppl who already have a CIMB account, eg. Fastsaver. Thanks.

The rules said within 60 days after achieve the target. The date will be decided by CIMB. So in a nutshell, another millionaire will be born by next year...
