CIMB the 3.2% rate is only for 3 months and worse, the 3.2% is only applicable on the incremental balance @ end December 2024.

Definitely not worth it for me since my funds are already in this bank.

GXS also got conditions huan.  You only get 3.18% if you fulfill their tenure ie base interest plus maturity bonus interest than you get 3.18%.  

Otherwise I think is just 2.68%

CIMB is very unethical to roll over from fixed deposit to saving acct without customer knowledge. This is bad customer service. My Bk of China pre-informed me to roll over my fixed deposit via a sms msg.

Another one that pulls the same stunt is Maybank. Msian banks ptui. 

On the other hand, ICBC rolls over with the existing best promotion board rate.

The 3.2% only on the incremental balance based on @ Dec 2024 is a definite disincentive, at least for me.

Not for ICBC though, and probably other Chinese banks here.

MAS have all the while lapse in their roles in regulating so many concerns in financial arena. They lacked responsibility in punishing banks for so many scams on customers acct. Ended up, we hv to protect ourselves.
