Why are people not using TransferWise? So far I have been using TransferWise instead of Instarem to transfer RM to SGD. Very fast. Is CIMB SG-->CIMB my better than transferwise's rate?

Noticed that xe.com may also be able to transfer? Not sure. Did not explore it

Hi guys, I just opened my cimb fastsaver account and about to fund the account. Looking through the comments in this forum, it's usually from cimb my to cimb sg. But did anyone tried funding using instarem and to fund minimum (eg. SGD 10) from own cimb account? Would it still recognize as our own fund transfer?

Transferwise most of the time expensive vs instarem. Is the only fintech I will use for bringing money back to Malaysia should there be a need. There is another fintech based in singapore which allows malaysians to open an account online. Have not tried them yet. But I know this fintech rates is the cheapest.

Cimb sg rates sometimes better than transferwise. Surprisingly. Forget about xe. We cannot use XE. XE is only for westerners.

Your answer is found here. Kindly read. No spoon feeding.

I am actually using BigPay to transfer to SG. Yes, it is not the best rate, but what else gives you 50 days of interest free period?

Hehe... Only RM10k each time right?

used to be 10, now 5

Max can transfer to SG. I forgot already how much was their limit.

Thanks. When I first started transferring RM to SGD, I compared Transferwise, Instarem and BigPay. They all yielded about the same $ amount. After that, I did not bother comparing anymore as Transferwise usually transferred within an hour. Must go and try compare again. Wonder is it because I transferred $10k each time instead of bigger amount 1 shot.


Bigpay took so long to transfer. Wow, from $10k become $5k now

I still checked. Whichever give me the best rate gets my business. I use instarem, bigpay, moneymatch with transferwise being the most expensive. Bigpay is the slowest. Sometimes way cheaper than the rest.

That's for credit card topup. But not overseas transfer.

Thanks. I wonder can anyone of them store foreign currency? Merchantrade can but the rate sucks big time

So far none. Hope revolut comes to malaysia. Bigpay pretty much copy everything revolut have but revolut I know can store foreign currency.

Thanks.

Thanks for the reply. Did you use BigPay for first time transfer?
