TOS how did you close your MBB sg acct? were you able to withdraw out all $$ and let it autoclose after 30 days?

I leave a long trail of posts behind in this forum.

OCBC SG has quietly increased the monthly fee for non-residents to SGD 50 per month and minimum daily balance for waiver to SGD 25k.
These are astronomical numbers.

There is also no option to open the Monthly Savings Account in the apps for non-residents.

Looks like the OCBC SG account is only good for the first 12 months.

We can switch to the OCBC 360 which requires minimum SGD 3k but the bank can easily introduce a new fee of SGD 50 per month for non-residents.

how about the existing Monthly Savings Account?

john123x digressing a bit. does MBB sg allow you to empty out to another bank acct? S$0 balance in MBB

There is a monthly fee of SGD2 if your min balance falls below SGD500.

coolguy99 yes i know. i'm researching on how to auto-close the account. i read in hardwarezone that you have to leave S$10 behind in your account. and let it autodeduct for 5 months. need an MBB sg user to verify that.



currently OCBC and CIMB sg allows you to empty out the acct, and start the autoclose timer

Hi, newbie here, anyone here dca into sp500 index? Which etf did you buy? And how much transaction cost you incurred? I have seen people recommend CSPX, but my dca amount is very low, and the minimum cost of usd 1.70 seems quite expensive over long term.

ck8811 wrong topic. but to answer your question, you can buy USA etfs. then each year, you sell all and buy into CSPX.

if u find the right topic to ask this question, i can show you how i calculated

Anyone here with Maybank SG account who didnt activate the debit card?

Any issue with that?

I'm getting 2nd SMS reminder to activate it.

Thought of not activating it at all since not using the card and to avoid fraud like TOS experienced.

Any card regardless where you are can kena the scam. You activate the card only if you want to use it. If you are like me with no usage for it, no need bother activating.

But there’s no charge at the moment for the 360 right? I guess that’s some breathing space for users (at least for now)

Oh sorry did not see the date

Can anyone with CIMB SG and MY account help me with this?

Can you withdraw SGD from CIMB SG account using CIMB MY debit card? My accounts are already linked and can see online.

I am going to SG tomorrow. 😅

I don’t have CIMB account but just wanted to wish you a safe trip and enjoy yourself in Singapore!

open OCBC 360 or MBB sg bank account. you'll get debit card

you can also transfer SGD to your Wise account. withdraw from sg ATM using Wise Debit card
