CIMB CASA Bundled Step Up FD

CIMB just started a step up FD campaign from 6th May to 31st July 2013 for its individual customers. The promotion is a CASA bundled 8-month step up FD.
















Eligible customers just need to place a minimum fresh fund of RM 1000 into their CASA to enjoy the 8-month step up FD promotional interest rates of up to 4% p.a. The maximum placement for the FD can only be up to 2 times of the CASA placement amount, which means about 33% of the total amount needs to be bundled with CASA.

The promotional interest rates for the 8-month step up FD are as follows:
Tenure
Promotional Rate
Month 1 -- 2
3.25% p.a.
Month 3 -- 4
3.30% p.a.
Month 5 -- 6
3.35% p.a.
Month 7 -- 8
4.00% p.a.

The promotional interest rates are applicable for placement of 1 cycle only. Interests will be paid out upon completion of each single cycle. Payment of interest earned will be credited to the eligible customer's CASA.

The effective interest rate for the 8-month step up FD is 3.475% p.a. only, which is very low because 30% of the placement amount still needs to be bundled with CASA.

For both promotions, customer needs to have a CASA with AmBank. It is only for AmBank to bank in the interest of the FD, not bundle with the deposit fund. In order to enjoy additional 0.10% p.a. interest rate, customer can choose to apply for AmBank credit card. Card which is cancelled in less than 6 months and reapplied during the campaign period will not be considered as new application.

According to Digi website, the free phone should come with a free 2GB memory card as well. Also, the phone is originally SIM locked, which means you can only use it for Digi SIM card. However, you can call to Digi careline to manual unlock the phone.

In my opinion, this is really a very good deal. To buy the phone, you can refer to the Digi website on "Where to Buy".
