so if i open fast saver acc before 1st Aug, but i inject fresh during promo period, does it fulfil the T&C ?

Happy to share that I have successfully opened my OCBC Singapore account with just my IC and Passport.

The process of applying through the app is a bit a pain in the ass, as needs to do several times for the app to accept my IC. Tips, the ic can be slightly outside the rectangle.

Took about 3 working days for the account to be approved. Was given Global Savings Account and Statement Savings Account.

Initial deposit required is just SGD1000, it can be from your Singaporean bank account or Malaysian bank account. I already have Maybank SG account. So this is very seamless.

Despite the T&C showing initial deposit for non-resident Statement Savings Account is SGD20k. I just needed to deposit SGD1k. Not sure if this only applies for Malaysians or what.

Regardless, even if the fall below fee for non-resident Statement Savings Account which is 20k is imposed as per T&C (no fee for first year), don't worry, we can go around this. 

Once you have access to the OCBC SG online banking, you can immediately apply for other accounts like OCBC 360 (minimum balance 3k) or OCBC Frank (minimum balance 1k), Monthly Savings account (minimum balance 500) or other OCBC SG accounts. I prefer OCBC 360. I will close Statement Savings Account after this.

So for all Malaysians residing in Malaysia, with no SG pass whatsoever. Right now we have 3 easy options for SG bank accounts (Maybank, CIMB and OCBC), everything done online, super easy.

For those who are interested to apply OCBC SG account, can use my referral code NLC9FDOS . You will get SGD15, and I will get SGD15.

Thanks for sharing your experience. Question:

OCBC 360 has a service fee of SGD2 if average daily balance for the month falls below SGD3,000, though it is waived for the first year. How do you intend to work around this? As someone earning MYR, it doesn't make sense to have ~RM10K+ just sitting in this account.

Otherwise, I feel that the main goal for opening this account as someone who is not working in SG to be able to have access to SG T-Bills. Is this correct?

Hate to break it to you, dude. Moomoo isn't allowing Malaysians to open an account with them, explicitly mentioned in the app

fyi, i have moomoo sg account, but the benefits and rewards arent attractive, therefore i didnt use it

i think somewhere in june this year or maybe may, moomoo MY is opened for malaysian.

your info is 2 months outdated for moomoo MY, and over a year outdated for moomoo MY

you kinda like "Ziet Invests" cimb sg videos, where his info is correct at the moment of youtube video release. but as time goes, his info goes outdated and he doesnt bother update it.

Do you have moomoo Malaysia?

no ,i dont.

Ok. Thanks. Cause I wanted to ask if moomoo Malaysia have she's plus. Kinda of hate KDI save for restricting to only RM50k. Need another place to park other than versa.

remarks( so that it wont be off topic):
my plans: get a passport, get ocbc sg, using ocbc sg to apply cimb sg (ocbc sg transfer money to cimb sg)

judging from his recent video posting, he's probably trying to pivot to general investing content (can't blame him, a youtuber needs to create content to gain traffic. can't always post the same (but updated) stuffs)

I got moomoo sg. Using heir cash plus to park my SGD. Until all my dividends come in then one shot transfer to IBKR.

Get DBS. Forget ocbc. Ocbc need to keep SGD3k. Unless I am outdated. Haha...

You can open a "Monthly Savings Account" minimum of SGD $500 needed before a fall below fee is charged every month
