Got an invite for 3.55% from 1 Oct 2023 to End of Jan 2024.

My average monthly balance for Sept was about 20Xk+. On 30 Sept I withdrew everything and left about 3k inside. If I topped up to 310k by 31 Oct, I will qualify for the promotion? And will my 21Xk Sept bonus reduce my interest for Oct onwards? Seems like this invite is different mechanic from the regular promo

You have to read the terms of your invitation, whether it is based on average Sept balance, likely but still your case may be different.

I Thot SCB always uses ADB for the whole month to calculate the bonus interest. Usually need to be incremental. But Some invitations no need.

3.4 is the old offer. 3.5 is the new, current offer.

 

[magicming]

SCB website being slowly updated to show 3.5% in all parts.

The difference between comparing against last day and ADB of previous month.

Compare Against Last Day Example
01 Sep - $100,000
30 Sep - $1,000
The Incremental Balance is compared with $1,000 (30 Sep).

Compare Against ADB Example
01 Sep - $100,000
30 Sep - $1,000
The Incremental Balance is compared with $96,700 (ADB of Sep).

 

[magicming]

The previous promotion is compared with the last day of previous month instead of ADB of previous month.

Thanks for the info. Yes. Must double check these things.

I’m now slightly concerned. For those on the 3.65% invite from 1 Sept. . We get the bonus 3.60% on the ADB of our entire balance right? No comparison or incremental ADB needed. As long as there is $100k more on 30/9 compared to 31/8, right? And after 30/9 can just withdraw the $100k if we want to. Will still earn the 3.65% for whatever amount we have in the eSaver account till 31/1 2024. Subject to $5m limit. Do correct me if my understanding is different from yours. Thanks.

Pro siah, didn't know ADB and last day balance so technical

 

[Imhthc]

The latest promotion (01 Oct 2023 to 30 Nov 2023) is using Average Daily Balance (ADB) to calculate the Bonus Interest.

For public incremental promotion, it has always been using ADB to calculate the bonus interest. Never was it based on the amount on the last day of the previous month.

 

[Imhthc]

thanks. so according to the past experience, she will get the bonus as end of Sep her acct is 1K, so anything above that she will get. But according to TnC, it must be fresh funds not from the bank. Is that the same TnC all these while, I didn't take note as I only started on 1st Aug, so missed the TnC in the previous promo.

Really up to u alr. My experience is as long as other scb account to the esaver, it is eligible.

 

[highsulphur]

Is your sep bonus interest credited or is it still "coming"?

Thanks for the information. For CIMB promotion, they compared against the Comparison Month End-Day Balance.

I can see it on app. Maybe it's patched

Just to confirm, the minimal sum I have to maintain in the StanChart eSaver account is $3000 to avoid a fall-below fee? Seems very high compared to other banks.
