I have 2 debit cards (black DBS visa debit & posb passion debit) linked to my existing DBS acc. When i attempt to open my account, it seems to allow only 1 card to link to it.. then what will happen to my other card?

The footnote : Additional Interest will be accorded for 4 months period starting from the 3rd month of account opening.

So if open in Jun, must place min $5000 fresh funds by Jul. But 0.8% interest only given for Aug to Nov ?

Not sure if my interpretation is correct..

Open by 30th June
Place funds in by end of 2nd month (30th July)

Then get 0.8% from Aug to November?

Seems like my interpretation is similar to yours :)

I am not keen on this. Just trying to highlight to those interested.

As usual, banks like to have small prints.

is this good to stack with a new multiplier account?
the drawback is multiplier account may get trimmed :s11:

Since the new account will be open for at least 6mths to avoid early closure fee, it doesn't matter 0.8% interest is given from Aug to Nov or July to Oct.

Would DBS FD for 10 months @ 1.10% for $1,000 to $49,999 make sense?:)

Rather you put maybank 1.1%
This DBS one isnt stackable and rates are based on your existing cumulative FD. If a 1.2% offer comes nxt week after putting this 1.1% for $49,999, you will be ineligible to get the 1.2% from the next dollar
