There's this one at POSB which is quite flex with withdrawal, but yeah, low Interest Rates. It's ok, I still have a month to decide keke.. thanks anyway Nadia!

And interest is calculated daily, credited monthly. What I like about it is that it's solely based online, so you can't withdraw your money at the ATM. BUT what I do is that I put all of my salary in the Telenet Saver and transfer the money to my "spending account" as and when I need it. That way, I get as much of the daily interest as I can. You might be able to get a Term Deposit with a similar interest rate but the main disadvantage is that you can't constantly top it up (like I do monthly with my Telenet Saver) and you can't touch the money either.

I don't have much by way of savings but I earned thirty bucks in interest this month! :D If you were in Australia, I’d recommend Bankwest’s Telenet Saver Account.
