How about maybank SG? If we have maybank account in Malaysia we can open maybank SG and link both account into our maybank2u and then we can have multiple currencies in one profile . Need to ask how much they charge for transferring RM to SGD from maybank MY to maybank SG.

For me Maybank MY no reply until now. Already 1 month +. No call nothing, no package.

Since I everyday I wait, chances of opening are becoming slimmer. Decide to head down myself.

I find Maybank service is not as great as before already after they had the retrenchment and branches closed down.
Yeah do update us . Thanks

I recommend you don't wait. The longer you wait, you may regret it if Singapore government close their doors. It already closing. Almost 90% of banks in Singapore now require a working pass to have account with them.

Now I really regret closing mine few years back when I moved back to Malaysia 😂. Likewise in Malaysia , to open new account also need Employee salary slip and some verification for those unemployed . Banyak macam macam !

There's a thread some where here that people who is unemployed having trouble with opening Maybank Malaysia (requires proof of employment). Also banks in Malaysia are kind of weird that your IC address must be within the bank radius. Say you are from KL. You went to Penang on holiday and decide to open a bank account in Penang, you will be denied opening. Not sure if it's applicable for all banks in Malaysia or just some banks.

Sorry off topic but is true about this.my cousin wanted to open an account in Maybank but was rejected even though the husband has supporting employee document from SG company.
Very strict rules and requirements now. Just my share on experience
