I am wanting to have access to my term deposit money which has matured 2x from the maturity. I would like to know what are the chances of withdrawing some of the funds as I am experiencing hardship . Need to buy a car from a private seller. I would like to know if I can access the funds within the week or so ?
Hello Emmy,
Thank you for your comment.
If you need to access your term deposit funds before it reaches its 3rd maturity, you will need to give the bank 31 days’ notice. If there are less than 31 days left until the account matures (3rd time), you will need to wait until it reaches maturity to access funds. Usually, you can just contact the bank as they can make exceptions on a case-to-case basis.
You may check our guide on how to access a term deposit early. I hope this helps.
