How do u get $16? The difference of base and bonus+base interests for $200k is $271 if there are 30 days in that month.

He is comparing the promo between esaver and maybank. The difference in interest rate is 0.1%. So assuming $200k, the difference will be $16 per mth roughish.

I am assuming that they are opening the other bank account to enjoy the new fund promo. Hence if they stay put with their current bank account after the 2-month promo period, they are not losing 0.1% but up to 1.65%.

Those who are using SCB Esaver promo usually have two Esaver accounts for shuttling money between them to get the promo rates every time.

well, or they could be having funds somewhere else and deciding whether to transfer their funds in to eSaver or Maybank, but they only have eSaver and no Maybank account, there for only compare the difference in interest between the 2 and whether it is worth to open a new Maybank account.

U can't do fund transfer because it requires mobile app authentication. Ur money is stuck until scb resolves this issue. I guess this will be a good trick to play when dealing with bank run. Lol. Of course, scb is stable bank today. If this happened in 2008 when banks were crashing, people will really be scared.

For those who is using Android and SC app keep crashing, cleared SC app cache and data, it worked. If not, wait for patch.
