You are lucky, mine inactive for donkey years, only realised after I fail to transfer money in to earn high interest, so rush down to branch to apply for reactivation!
Not really lucky. I transferred money to my bonussaver. Then when i want to transfer from bonusaver to other bank, it got rejected. Cso said it will take a few days to reactivate my bonussaver, then can transfer to other bank.

Seems like SCB wants to compete with HSBC in T&C confusion. Sweat. 😓

But logically no bank is so good to only consider that one single last day balance to determine deposit calculation. Doesn't make sense. 那有那麽便宜的事??
Not only confusing. They like to interpret their tnc according to their advantage. Beware. Case in point is the smart card promo. It states eligibility-existing card holders but refutes that it is for new cardholders only and simply ignore the clause and wordings of eligibility-existing cardholders in the term clause 4. Called cso and all sing the same songs and refused to answer my question on the existing cardholder in the clause. One of them even “explained” that the clause is there to define the existing cardholder. Then the branch RM lagi better. He further brought up the terms that the bank will deem its explanation to its discretion. Gave up. My point is I won’t be surprised at the end of the day if we don’t get our due promo interest and cannot find anyone in the bank to understand the terms as we do.

Actually to be fair to SCB, I believe other banks also suffer from the same issue regarding the TnC and how one interpret it and how they (the banks) interpret it. You call in record or even screen-shot the messages and they can just say the cso did not explain the full picture or say cso was not briefed on the deep details etc. That's it! What you going to do? Sue the bank to court? No correct? So learn to adapt and never ever all in your monies to any of their promotion is a lesson I learned all these years.

I signed up in May as new customer for SCB in app exclusive promotion interest 4% ending 31 May.
Now I calculate the interest only received 3.8%.

They cheated !!!!

Can I confirm with people here. If I top up funds again this month, what will be the interest be? Is it 3.4% or still remain 3.8%?

The original signed up promo bonus interest 3.8% will last for 6 months on my 1st fresh funds right?

You can email them but the additional amount likely would be credited later. The default rate that would be credited first. First time to SCB 😂 need to learn their promo mechanics.
