I also have the same hunch. But pretty sure it’s not a scam call, just wondering what it’s all about that can beat risk-free rate. I ask the person on the other side of the call and the person said can’t say more over the phone because PDPA but set up an appointment and meet at a branch

lol... confirm is to ask you to pump your funds into some endowment plan or buy some investment product.

typical tactic by bankers... their first act is to lure/tempt you to go to branch.

Ask if it's a plain vanilla deposit account, if end up not say not interested. Don't think any plans can beat the UOB One interest for now.

I had exactly the same thing in mind. I asked what product is it, do I have to put in fresh funds, any lock up, the person insisted is change my UOB one account???

In any case I managed to CSI who the person was. Holding a position of Personal Wealth Executive. Knn confirm is want to sell me product

For sure, endowment plan or some investment linked that has high rewards to the "banker". It is getting so desperate nowadays. If it is better than UOB one account, for sure the product will be on fire in this forum or those "influencers".

Going to be a new to bank customer and open an UOB One acct to take advantage of the 4% pa. When is it the best time to open the account online? Is it Friday so that i can also earn the $138 cash? Any other promo i am missing out? Anyone knows if i should open the acct on Friday midnight since there is a limit to the number of ppl who can earn the $138 cash?
Thanks
