CIMB FastSaver

[twosix]

Based on my interpretation, CIMB website stated that the additional interest of 0.90% p.a. and 0.50% p.a. are only on first S$25,000.

To earn the additional interest on the first S$25,000 of your CIMB FastSaver Account balance, you may

• Earn bonus interest of 0.90%* p.a. by simply topping up a minimum of S$10,000 in incremental fresh funds (compared to your month-end balance as at 31 August 2026) into your account from 1 September to 30 September 2026. Fresh funds refer to funds that do not originate from any existing account with the Bank.
• Credit your salary or set up scheduled recurring transfers (Standing Instructions via GIRO) of minimum S$1,000 into your CIMB FastSaver Account to earn additional interest rate of 0.50%^ p.a.
• Spend on your CIMB Visa Signature Credit Card and earn 1.00%^^ p.a. for each calendar month where minimum eligible spend of S$800 is posted for the corresponding statement month.

hmmm Sep new rate:

Combined EIR​

Component	Amount / Rate	Effective on S$75k
CIMB prevailing interest	Tiered	1.0533%
September CASA bonus	0.90% on incremental balance	0.9000%
Salary Crediting bonus	0.50% on first S$25k	0.1667%
Total effective rate		≈ 2.1200% p.a.

anyone have firsthand experience on how strict are they on enforcing freshfund requirement for Account A & B merrygoround?
i.e Do they track TBR beside the reference month-end's Incremental Balance of the eligible account?

CIMB not attractive anymore...

CIMB FastSaver was quite attractive back then mainly because it was simple to just to earn interest.

I have already moved my money out

If you are comparing accounts in 2026, SingSaver did a useful comparison of high-interest savings accounts.

Card should be bundled.
You can try heading to the counter to bypass the "default" configuration and see if they allow you to skip
