I really dont know why so many companies tend to disable password paste option. I have long password created from password manager and I can't paste.

InstaReM is one of them and I dont know the reason behind for this and the advantages...

i don't know why ibstarem can't activate my account after I uploaded .

Thank you for your application and interest in InstaReM.

As per our internal policies, we are unable to activate your account. Unfortunately, we are also unable to disclose the reason for the same.

I did not even use their account before when they can't verify via online and must present. Hence, after i read here that we can verify via online, then uploaded and got this email just now.

had issues with financial authorities before? or maybe as ramjade say, ur location cannot 'open' account?

No. If my location cannot open account, sure they will tell me so. Now they claimed that it is their internal policy and cant tell me why.

I believe that they must google my name and found that I have companies in oversea and thought that I am going to do money laundering. The reason why they can't disclose they reason is, they afraid of salah by saying that I opened the account for money laundering and being sued.

Red flag or blacklisted.

that is possible if they are related with Transferwise as TW closed my account too when someone sent CAD60 to my borderless account and the CAD was not instantly converted. I sent the ticket to ask the expedite or otherwise, refund this CAD60 to the sender. The next day they emailed me to close my account.

If so, they have relation or connect relationship with TransferWise.

Thank you everyone for the inputs. Appreciate all of them.

My main purpose to ask whether to open a CIMB SG bank account is for me to transfer my money from CIMB MY. I am planning to transfer RM 1million in batches. I am looking for the best sales charges and best exchange rates.

Hi, I just opened my CIMB SG back in Apr'20. I asked my cousin who's in Singapore to transfer SGD1k to me. When they called for verification, they confirmed that the fund was received; however I need to transfer from my own. So I confirmed with them and just transferred SGD10 from my own MY a/c. And it got activated!

Just sharing my experience on this. Hope it helps.

Well they are the one with the lowest interest rate. Depending on what you want. No other banks come close.
