Anyone knows how to Xfer to CIMB using CIMB? Xfer has more than 10 digits virtual account but CIMB account number has only 10 digits.

So stupid lah..

How about during Xfer, I choose DBS and I got DBS xfer account number. Then I FAST transfer from my CIMB to that DBS Xfer account ok bo?

hahaha man. i think i know what u are trying to do as I am doing the same thing. I called cimb and communicate with xfers, only solution is to switch bank. and yes, i think u can if u get dbs, try with a small amount first, the issue with cimb is that the local transfer 10 digit number. because the 17 digit number is a virtual account number under cimb for xfers.
