Now no more new promo? My promo ended 31 Dec. Where else to put my money?

 

[Joelleyuan]

May I ask if my FastSaver acc was activated in October, when is the 3.5% promo gonna end?
I can't find the info again in their website, only vaguely remember that time it says end of January?

I did the whatsapp register in 10aug.

So is counted as 6months from 10aug?

wait. Must register? Or do you mean a/c creation. I am an existing a/c holder so i just transfer funds into my fastsaver. I just check my interest for dec, and find it i not correct. Wonder is it because I didn’t register for the promo?

When did you start your fund transfer?
You might want to talk to CIMB support for this.

 

[Mecisteus]

Eh the CIMB fastsaver promotion details taken out from CIMB website ?

I joined in December as existing customer. So I thought I saw until 6 months from December right ?

For simple banking it is Maribank at 2.88%...

If you got those credit card spending, salary input etc, can try those OCBC/UOB with an effective rate of 3% to 4%...

Called them. No use. It’s my own fault. Painful lesson.

Why you don't recommend Trust bank? No frills 1.5%, have 100k would be 2%. If can spend 5x on their card would be 2.5%, if join as union member 3%.

If have up to 500k, this seems rather decent no lock in.

You just described all the hoops people have to jump through.

I rather teach someone how to musical chairs eSaver and some other bank account every month.

Union member need to pay union fee, may not be worth it for 3% for smaller investors...

Maribank simpler...
