Anyone got a decent rate out of Finansbank over the past few days for Time Deposit accounts? I know folks have posted not long ago regarding this, but interested in what anyone's managed to screw out of them recently, before I speak to them.

highest I could get this week was 9.9% for 46 days.
could have had 10. something for a year but didn't want to do that.
there was another slightly better type of savings account if you've been paying your credit card bill in full.
I've been paying minimum but have changed that now so I'm eligible for that deal next time.

Thanks for that.

did you get that in the last few days?

Just logged into Finans Bank to check that my interest had been paid as today is the account maturity date and noticed that the interest rate for the coming month has dropped to 7% from the 10% that I got last month. This on a 28 – day Time Deposit Account.

On a 32 day account they are still quoting 9.1%, which is down from 9.8% a couple of weeks ago. Which is also down from 10.6% they were offering not that many weeks ago.

Depends on how much you have on deposıt as to what rate you get and how long u want to leave ıt ın for. If your ınterest day ıs today darmontle look at the account tomorrow ıt wıll probably have changed to a hıgher rate. Mıne was lıke that one month and I went ınto the bank and they saıd gıve us a chance ıts only 10am. Next day the rate had gone up agaın.

You're right, they can differ according to how much you have in assets with them. However, the advertised rates don't make any distinction between 1,000tl and 100,000tl:
