I tot first time must use bank 😳

🤦🏽‍♀️

Hi,

I stuck at the very beginning process, open the CIMB Malaysia account, seems like it is a lot of trouble open the saving account now.
Any idea how to do it?
As i brought my employer letter, the bank said my company didt have the account in CIMB so the letter is no use.
And i can't use investment purpose. So any idea?

Malaysian. Like very troublesome to open any account in Malaysia now.
Need a lot of verification

Hi guys, newbie here..
If successfully open CIMB SG account, any limit on funds that you can transfer to that account?
Will BNM check if say, every month transfer few thousand RM out to CIMB SG?
Thanks and sorry if it's a noob question.

Yo bro thanks for the reply.
And if I shift money back into CIMB Malaysia, will it trigger anything?
So I just prove that I sent the money to CIMB SG in the first place, and now I am transferring it back?
Thanks.

Edit: just to be clear, with the current economic climate in Malaysia, I feel it is safer to park a part of my savings in SG for stability as well as planning for my children's education. But if I need the money due to emergency, I will need to transfer it back to Malaysia.

Hi. I just created an account for CIMB SG and initiated account linking from my CIMB MY account. Normally how long will it take for them to verify and approve this? Also normally what is the phone no. that they will use to call me for verification purpose?

Im opening basic saving account, but they r asking a lot of questions, like purpose of opening and ask me to provide a valid document to support it(wth?). Which like they are giving you trouble to open, complaint to CIMB and the customer service replied decision for opening account is all up to the branches(wth?!).
Guess i have to find an easier branch?

I managed to open another international bank in SG without presenting there.. hhuu

ok, update here.
I finally opened my saving account(hooray), in another branch
Due to too many peoples come and open saving account and sell to the market for fraud case, so they are very strict about this now
I have ask them about the basic account thing, they said BNM is only promised all bank "will" offer basic saving account, not "shall".
So they still hold the final decision that whether to let you open or not

Just show all the valid documents(EPF, Income Tax, etc) to support you are not selling your account then you are safe.
Goodluck guys!
should cont open my sg account now

actually, u all know can open account online right? then go to branch for verification

I was requesting basic saving account in the website, but i saw they open AirAsia saver for me.

Update:
Managed to open my Ecosave (or whatever) savings account online, went to branch for verification and deposit.
Opened SG FastSaver account, verified with OTP and transferred $1000 via Wise.
Submitted account linking in CIMBclicks MY now waiting for approval.
Here's hoping everything goes well.

lolz, now only i realize we got charged for the annual fees 15MYR every year for every "special" saving account.
I was wondering what is the different and why do u ask us to close the account. 

When opening CIMB SG FAST acc it say initial depo is SG1k.
Can I dep SG3k?
Will they accept?

Very helpful video on YouTube that shows opening CIMB SG account, hope everyone that is researching in this topic is able to see this 

other than cimb and mbb sg, which bank at sg accept malaysian and can open via online?

I hav just opened CIMB Singapore

Will i be able to obtain an ATM card from singapore and withdraw money from Singapore if i want to

Sorry if it has been asked bfore

Thanks for the prompt reply bro

Seems it is possible then!

Just making sure tat the money is in singapore haha. Friend asking

You are right ! I was abt to say this,... that bro is backdated,....

And having a CIMB Debit card will allow one to spend at merchants,.. not only for funds withdrawal at an ATM,.... if one does not have any other SG Debit Cards,.... why not ?
