Looking to open this eSaver account and close off the BonusSaver account. Does anyone know if I've gotten the sign up gift for BonusSaver, any penalty if I close off BonusSaver account as well as the useless credit card? Thanks in advance!

it has this line "your Bonus$aver Account and your Bonus$aver Credit Card account must be validly existing (i.e. must not be suspended, cancelled or terminated), in good standing, and conducted in a proper and satisfactory manner at all times, as determined by the Bank in its sole and absolute discretion." which they don't specify the validity is until when :(

For those of you still parking in 3.8% promo, did you realize OCBC 360 easily gives you 4.05%? I don't know why I overlooked that and just follow the hype of this esaver lol

https://www.ocbc.com/personal-banking/deposits/360-savings-accountSalary + Save: You will earn a maximum EIR of 4.05% a year.
Interesting find. I didn't realise the high rate of 4% above 75k pulls up the average massively.

I think the trick is to start with like 95k and then you need to keep increasing you balance by 500 each month so for 10 months you get close to 4%.

The line 'Bonus Interest Payment for 2023-02' based on my calculation is likely based on 3.8%.
I noticed for my JANUARY interest, I have to add 3 lines: interest (31st), bonus interest (31st), exclusive interest (10th). I added it all up, it was about 3.8%. Let me know if that is true for you.

BTW, I did not receive anything in February from SCB about 4.2% (#4026 post).

SCB just love to confuse her customers n load up work for their staff,cause more variation means
more enquiry n unnecessary staff workload,,,,why can’t they just pay you 3.8% or whatever the rate
in one go at end of month instead of playing games afterall whether interest,special bonus,exclusive bonus etc etc still needs to be paid out net of month…….or maybe they wanna appear sophisticated ?

e.g.
BONUS INTEREST PAYMENT
FOR THE PERIOD 2022-12-01-2022-12-31
- this is the first credit of bonus interest for December 2022, credited on 31 Dec 2022

EXCLUSIVE BONUS INTEREST PROMO
INTEREST FOR DEC22 (05 OF 11)
- this is the second credit of bonus interest for December 2022, credited on 19 Jan 2023
to those who're wondering why there're two separate bonus interests, I suspect it is due to the counter that they have for each customer that is on different promo cycles...

had shared previously that if you look at the statement carefully, one of them have this "xx of xx" for the second bonus ("exclusive bonus") which likely refers to the sequence of the cycle until it expires.

I suspect the first bonus interest is based on the general "for all" bonus promo, whereas the second is for those who're "invite only". the only thing I don't quite get is how it is split and paid out (e.g. current "for all" promo is 3.8% while the "invite only" promo is also 3.8% for me).

Your balance will become negative?

Cause aft march is sai interest right? Can just withdraw all and leave acct there?
Not sure man. I just have to be careful with this bank. Sneaky, they issued a debit card when I signed for bonus saver and next month they charge me debit card fee. First bank I've experienced that did this kind of sneaky thing. And they don't waive off. Got to bring the matter to their branch, escalate it then they waive off on the spot.
