    Thanks for your reply. I did think about Hisave and Icesave. But do you think I will be having instant access to my money? Will Icesave issue me a atm card? and moreover transfer to nominated bank account will take around 3 days I would assume.

    With the ICICI account you can also have an ICICI current account running alongside it. That would provide you with a debit/atm card.

    You wont get an ATM card and you would need to wait around 3 days to get the cash back into your current account. You could always leave a few hundred in the bonus saver and put the rest in Icesave to get the best benefit from your cash.
