QUOTE(!@#$%^ @ May 3 2020, 01:09 PM) but why is his minimum sgd1000? If you don't lock the money there you will be charged. Hence by locking it there the money is always there and won't cannot be removed. Cause it's free money for the banks. They don't need to pay interest or almost negligible of 0.05%p.a Just put in SGD1k, email them why you are being charged. The card is free of charge. If really SGD1k try and ask them can refund or not as you didn't know about the rules. Mine time was sgd500 only. This post has been edited by Ramjade: May 3 2020, 01:43 PM

The noob service agent said i must have EP but actually can say you dont have, then they will seek management approval which took 2 weeks. hi there , i managed to open cimb fastsaver and now they are requesting the sgd 1000. How do i get the money across using cimbclicks my. is it foreign telegraphic transfer ?

The CS you dealt with had no idea what they were talking about.
