thks.
was searching for better option/methods to cancel both my DBS&POSB a/c without going over.

Recommend not to close account. Last time OK to close. This time once close difficult to open back again.

hey guys,

after reading the pages i got confused a bit, so can we use instarem to transfer from MY to SGD? or must use cimb clicks MY?

Kamsahamida!

Use instarem. Never use Malaysian banks. Cimb clicks is for SGD-> RM

ok ok thanks Ramjade!

To be more precise, if you are opening CIMB Fastsaver Acc. Sg for the first time AND you do not have any other existing Sg Bank account to fund your CIMB Fastsaver, for verification purpose, you need to transfer fund via CIMB Malaysia, for the first time, that is.

Subsequently you can use Instarem to transfer from Msia to Singapore.

oh i see, thanks for your help markedestiny!

which money transfer can send money to IDR or vice versa

Instarem can. But don't think Indon got any fintech to help in remittance.

hi all, may i ask how to trf cimb msia to cimb sg? cimb sg say no need link to do trf, cimb msia say must link only can trf. if no link and do normal trf i keep getting "We've encountered an unexpected error when retrieving your accounts. Please try again later. [CLK00570]".

Cannot one..only can do TT.

U wanna SGD to cimb SG? I need MYR, I got cimb SG

the first time fund transfer to CIMB SG must use CIMB MY? but i dont have any account with CIMB MY, do we have other option? e.g. use intarem or other MY bank acccount?

Yes, you have to open a local CIMB My to transfer for the first time. It's part of the verification process presumably.

After you have open the local account with CIMB, you need to activate the linkage between your Sg and My account and then you should be able to transfer internally online using its website.

After your Sg account is activated with the transfer of SGD1000, subsequent transfers can be done cheaper over fintech such as instarem.

Under CIMB Clicks > Services > Account & Cards > Link Account.

You can check if the linkage is successful status ; >> Account & Cards > Check Account Linking Status

If still not able to link, check with the Customer Service.

Btw, I am working in SG.

Malaysians can open a DBS multiplier account, mo deposit and can mail to Malaysia. You guys should try.

many thanks for the clarification
I opened saving acc with CIMB MY and successfully link my CIMB SG acc today.

but one thing very strange, I used instarem made first SGD 1000 fund transfer 2 days ago, and it showed successful and now i can see the money in my SG link account. (via CIMB click)

Now i am waiting the activation code to activate my CIMB SG acc.

Why you want to open account in sg??

yes good idea too. but got to maintain min amt at least of sgd3k. else fall below fee will be levied on your acc.

Really? I didn't know. You need to have minimum 3k.
Let me check it and update

I have this acc and converted to posb acc last 2 years ago. thank god. now just maintain sgd500 only.
