I'm with Kasikorn, best they could offer last week was 2.8% with 15% tax on interest that's why I went to TMB who's rate gives me 2.8% net. The banks seem to change offers daily so my recommendation is to befriend someone in the bank who will give you a call when they have a special on, TMB have offered to do this.
Best of luck finding a good investment.

Back on the interest topic again, been to Kasikorn bank today best they can give for 1 year fixed deposit is 1.3%, 3% if fixed for 4 years.
Anyone got any insight on which is the best for a fixed deposit?

Try BAY, they offer 1.8% on a standard savings account, can withdraw at any time, and there is no tax to pay!
