POSB Savings Interest Rate Revision October 2011
POSB is cutting down on their interest rate they are offering for their deposit savings account.
This looks to be a major cut to the interest they are offering, which is about 50% down from the previous rate.
When you think the interest rate is low enough, it gets even lower!
Using the example of $10,000, you will get a grand total of $5 interest per year! That is $0.42 cents per month!!!
