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.

CIMB MY to CIMB SG... now i know the exchange rate is pretty crap lol. but i managed to get my acc opened. 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.

I went called both Malaysian and CIMB hotline to try to open SG bank acc and they told me only able to open a bank acc if I go to SG physically.

Is there other way where I can do it online?

Spend some time and read earlier posts. The answer is there. And no. Almost all of us opened our account online. The CS you dealt with had no idea what they were talking about.

Don“t waste your time with hotlines, go to the preferred center and talk to your RM.
