Without marathon it's usually 2 months, so just Oct and Nov.

Yea... I must have misread the non marathon to be same tenure as the marathon...

Website registration still shows Dec promo leh, how to register Jan promo?

Today is a public holiday, all transactions will only be valued tomorrow. My understanding is that if you withdraw from Bank A today, you will not earn interest in Bank A but funds will only valued in Bank B tomorrow. So you lose today's interest.

I just test transfer a dollar to CIMB. And it is dated today in my Fast Saver account. I guess to test a small sum for your targeted Bank in order to find out..

Posting date and value date is different. Posting date is today, but since today holiday, it will be value as 2Jan.

When does SCB credit interest ( the normal miserable interest, not the bonus)?
I deposited money during the last few days of Dec , but I don't see any interest credited

use app got lag. need use desktop to see the 0.05% interest on the first day of the month.

Today no bonus interest if kept in last month account anyway
...and will increase adb ss reference month for future promo

These kind of transfer hv to plan a few days earlier , e.g do it on 30th , increase the overall ADB for the 30 days in the bank to meet min required ADB amount

Every month many ppl shd be doing this way too, Jin mafan but bobian...

The exclusive Invite Step Up BI aligns with the Marathon Jan 2025 BI.

The differences
1. Marathon need to register & deposit $100k fresh funds compared to 31 Dec 2024
2. Marathon BI applies to Incremental ADB

I said this last mth going to say again.

Public rate 2.85% for Dec to Jan cycle. Higher than all the 3 mths in Jan marathon.

Does not make sense to join Marathon. The rates are not that fantastic that need to lock in.

i think i messed up my musical chairs for Oct to Dec.
can someone help me recall what was the promo period for Oct non marathon?
was it Oct Nov Dec, with Sep as reference month?
or was it Oct Nov, with Sep as reference month?
because i left my $$$ in Account A for Oct Nov Dec, and i just realized the current cycle is Dec Jan with Nov as reference month. which meant i needed to transfer to Account B on 1 Dec which i did not do.
thanks

oct nov dec marathon is using sep as reference month. now jan you should be moving funds out liao. too late for cimb 3.2% or maribank 3.5% now. Still can do Maybank nov to jan 2025 window. 3.2 to 3.4%

Thought there is a new promo cycle Jan to Mar 2025 for CIMB at the same 3.2% rate? Ref month should be Dec 2024. Not too late imho.

Does Maybank announce their promotions only every three months, unlike CIMB, HSBC, SCB, which release theirs monthly?

When I sign up for Marathon, I will get 2.75% (Jan), 2.80%(Feb), 2.85%(Mar).

However, if dont sign up, I will get 2.80% for Jan and then see what happens in Feb. Looks like SCB expect to drop interest again in Feb.

Yup, move funds out to CIMB and enjoy the 3.2%. Not sure why anyone would keep the funds in esaver now.

Isn’t it 2.85% for Jan 25 if u dun participate in this?
Unless the new promo is below 2.73%, it is difficult to justify why need to sign up this promo with a 0.15% lower for this month.

I started on the Marathon in late Dec.
I have received the base interest for December. But I haven't received any bonus interest although I had deposited enough $$$ in December .
When does the bank credit the bonus interest ?
Records of my accounts a few months ago show bonus interest credited on same day as the base interest. But that was not Marathon.
Am wondering whether it's cos Marathon is different, or something went wrong
