Standchart eSaver

[Mickey01]

I believe you are on the Exclusive for September to November? Do you know if those on this promotion can concurrently stack on the Marathon by simultaneously fulfilling the Marathon criteria ie the registration and the topping up 100k > end of day September balance? Thank you

are there additional benefits other than you "extend" the BI by another month Dec 2024?

I don't see any other additional benefits only an additional month for December.

i'm on exclusive BI invite until October only (Aug - Oct). not sure if anyone got invited to November (if any).

the exclusive BI actually gives interest on the total balance instead of incremental balance. I think that's the key difference between normal promo and exclusive promo, other than the (slightly) different rates.

 

[Mickey01]

I don't see any other additional benefits only an additional month for December.

But then if you are on invite and your Sep 2024 is funded, the Marathon BI for Dec 2024 is incremental Dec 2024 ADB vs Sep 2024 ADB.

Hi I’m an newbie to SCB and getting confused here talking to the Cso of SCB…Anyone can advise on the SCB marathon saver pls? If my Sept ADB is zero and sign up promo with 100k this month, means I can enjoy the bonus interest for 100k on Oct, Nov , Dec? No need to further top to 100k every month right? Cso telling me every month need to top up new funds or else won’t get bonus interest for each month ? Seems like it doesn’t make sense…thank you

Yes, that’s why I am confused why the cso said need to top up every month

CSO may not provide the correct information at times. It is recommended to refer to the Terms and Conditions since there is an illustration table.

Usually about 5 days

Ok. Thanks.
I still thought it should be immediate or at most 1 day wait time...

 

[tinsel77]

So if I have 1k at the end of Sep, if I put 200K before 31st Oct I will enjoy marathon bonus for 3 months? But I just registered for the marathon bonus. Not sure enough time to take part.

 

[demoforce1]

For the Esaver marathon, I know that I need to have $100,000 higher than the balance of 30th Sep, and my 30th Sep is $0.
Oct bonus interest is 3.30%, Nov is 3.35%, and Dec 3.45%
If my balance is less than 100K for both Nov and Dec, say only have 50K, will I still get the 3.35% and 3.45%?
I assume yes, but would like to confirm here, thanks!

Yup, the only qualifying criterion is for 31 Oct balance to be higher. Nov and Dec balance do not matter for promo qualifying.

Must I wait for any confirmation after registration of the marathon bonus before depositing my funds?

 

[F1ngolf2012]

31 Oct is a public holiday and being the last calendar day of October, I reckon that depositing fund to eSaver account on 31 Oct will not earn interest for that day. Can anyone who has the same situation in the past confirm this?

Yes, I think SC excludes Sundays and public holidays.

In fact, SC is particularly vindictive in that they'll also clawback bonus interest from withdrawals done on Sundays and public holidays.

I dont get it, but CSO said okay
