public bonus interest promo used to be "up to $1 million". Latest promo revised to $2 million. Exclusive bonus invite is up to $5 million (I have this in my invite TnC)
oh no wonder I have the impression of S$5mil :o
I'm on invite most of the time. Current invitation going to end soon, looking forward to their next invite! :grin:

No sure if I am reading it correct, but this invite TnC says "best public rate for all funds during the period"? (SC also randomly send updated email on the invite).

if i understand it correctly, as long as received invitation and met conditions (be it fresh fund deposit), will become qualifying account with Bonus rate for the entire stated period.
And Clause 5 clearly stated that, in layman terms, bonus rate shall be match with any public rates if its higher. i.e the 3.8% for Dec and Jan
Yes, mine have the clause 5 as well. Cheers

e.g of a promo t n c
https://av.sc.com/sg/content/docs/esaver-excl-bonus-nov22c-FAQ.pdf
read clause 5

Notwithstanding Clause 4 above, in the event that the bank offers to the Bank’s other customers holding Eligible Account(s), a bonus interest rate higher than Bonus Interest Rate (“Higher Bonus Interest Rate”) for any e$aver bonus interest promotion, indicated on our website as open to all Eligible Account(s) held during the Bonus Interest Earning Period, your Bonus Interest for that month will be computed at such Higher Bonus Interest Rate, subject to these terms.
My 2.8% exclusive bonus interest invite was for October 2022 to May 2023. I wonder anyone here has SCB confirmation that the bonus interest rate is now bumped up to the new 3.80%? :unsure:

Think I have the similar invite as you. I called this morning and the officer first said I have to deposit fresh fund and I asked her to double check, she then came back say I am eligible. Hope all is okay so I will leave my fund there :) May be you would like to call to double confirm this.

So if lets say we deposit some funds in the afternoon/evening of 1st day (or maybe 2nd day), the eSaver system will probably not make the $5 deduction (from a $0 balance) ?
