How does the 30 days fresh funds work? If I withdrew 100k on 3 Jan does it mean that I need to wait until 3 Feb to deposit 100k for it to be considered as fresh funds?

Both qualify if you read the tnc if you're primary account holder for both
How about the 30 days fresh fund requirement for the invited?

Eg 2 esaver accounts.
One single account A.
One joint account A+B.

Say A has $200k but you withdraw $200k on 31Jan and put in other bank

If you fast into joint account A+B on 4 Feb for the Esaver promo, is it considered fresh fund?

This one depends on how strict scb is defining the fresh fund. Also is it with reference to the month adb or a date?

30 days fresh fund and ADB is not linked.
Say u move funds out on 31Jan and if u move funds in on day 26Feb, it's less than 30 days and not considered fresh fund.
Not fresh fund means doesn't enjoy the promo rate, independent of ADB isnt it?

From the clause, within promotion period should mean 1st Feb to 30 April 2024 right? “Within” should be from the start date and inside those dates.

This e$aver Exclusive Bonus Interest (February 2024) batch B Promotion (“Promotion“) is available starting from 1 February 2024 to 30 April 2024(both dates inclusive) (“Promotion Period“), unless otherwise extended or terminated in accordance with the terms of this Promotion

Esaver can withdraw anytime.

DBS is FD and DBS have penalty for early FD withdrawal.

penalty is just lose interest am i right? I was thinking 3 mths is very short, unlikely stock market will plunge? :)

p/s: so it's 2 months vs 3 months. how i wish esaver and isaavy can change it to 3 or 4 mths. every 2 months need to transfer is really a hassle.

I'm thinking of opening this account for the 3.6%. so there's no lock in, I can withdraw anytime right? But the interest I'll get is based on the ADB of the fresh funds incremental balance? I find this more confusing that the CIMB promo haha

If u open a new account, ur reference balance is zero n u earn 3.6% from ur first cent. However, please note that this promo is from 1st Feb to 31st mar only.

Similar functionality as CIMB.
If you open now it will be compared to 0 SGD so you get the full amount compared to others who maybe have 1k SGD inside already.

Yes can withdraw anytime.
