Worst Joke Ever 2024

[Chivas]

I see SCB are currently offering 2.8% Gross.........Any known better rates than that ?

Sum around 500k initially.....??

[Upnotover]

Initially? Are you going to try and add funds to the account? I have a Kbank fixed deposit, also 2.8% but cannot deposit any extra funds into it, even the interest, paid quarterly, goes into my regular savings account. I'd much rather have an account I can add to. I'd assumed that the initial deposit was also fixed along with everything else.

Just checked their website. Didn't see it. I found 24 months @3.00%, but not 12 mo. @ 2.8%.

You are correct. Same with SCB wait for the year is up and then add additional funds on whatever new deal they offer. Am not sure about the interest bit because I assumed (always the mother of all mistakes) that interest was added upon maturity.......??

I have already a deposit SCB account so assume they wont wallop me for any insurance deal that many seem to come up against recently....??

My old man used to say, if someone pays you an interest rate double that of the competition, he must desperately need the money.

In a nutshell .....

[meatboy]

LH have been around a long time,they are more to being a building society.they build homes and are as much secure than most banks.

when the wife worked for home deco,air cons,decorations ect.she used to supply them and that was back in the eighties.

you can also look up THAI RETAIL CREDIT BANK they have some decent rates.[or the did in jan.this yr.

she opened a regular savings acc.over 2yrs x 3.60% but i am sure its for thais only,and a 3yr.fixed @ 3.25%.if you qualify.

but if you are unsure about some banks then let yourself be screwed.

we had fixed accs.with all the big boys but looking back the last best fixed we had was 2013@ 3.30%.now you will be lucky to get 2%.over 12-24months.

Lehman brothers had been around since 1850, and they took over a large investment project in Thailand, just before they disappeared from the world map.
