Standchart eSaver

[Cookie Muncher]

fresh funds means cannot be within the bank accounts, must be transferred from Another bank

I transferred $1k from bonussaver to esaver on 1 feb. Then out to other bank and back to esaver. Hope it works.

ddoes work but there is a risk they can claw back the bonus interest anytime they want

btw, inactive scb savings/current account will auto-dormant after 6 mths w/o any notice. debit money will take 2 business days to re-activate.

eSaver account does not come with a Debit card?

 

[Hulky8]

Actually depends on one's other planning, can do +-+-+-+- instead of ++--++-- also right?

I just wonder what is Scb up to,,,,they still pay 3.8% on new fresh fund.But by only giving 0.05%
on existing balance,they re just driving old funds away.So what is the logic if what the bank wants is to attract liquidity,I am sure Scb staff are utterly frustrated at so much unnecessary admin work

Maybank isavvy, RHB hysa all the same.
in fact, this is the first time Scb sent invites for esaver promo as long as 6-8 months for those selected customers.

This is to encourage people to play musical chair with the funds. Rotate with RHB HYSA. Might as well put in FD.

May be you are right. But it doesn't matter as I don't even know where I kept my card. As for my credit, I have 3 cards with same 16 digits given to me. Can I activate all 3 and use any one of them? Never used for very long time, tho I activated one of the 3 cards. My 3 sup card holers were also given 3 cards each of same numbers as they came altogether on renewal

LoL
but edmwer here said, is UP TO 2 million.

btw i applied online then very long didn't receive temp pw for logging in so i went down to a branch and shunbian asked for atm card,
end up they told me eSaver acc means no cards (no matter atm or debit card) will be issued.

just curious why u choose esaver instead of the other products like RHB account (and works similar) which gives higher interest ?

 

[hwarzoner]

I think need to switch to rhb liao, but i heard the bonus is not immediately give u ?

Yes, provided it follows the same pattern but you will have to play musical chairs every month instead of every 2 months.
