QUOTE(frostfrench @ Jan 17 2020, 07:22 PM) I don't hold any permit and I am not a SG PR. I have an SG OCBC bank. My main purpose to have another SG bank (CIMB or Maybank) is for me to transfer my malaysia ringgit to SG bank. Looking for the best alternative with the lowest charges, because I will be doing it regularly. Thanks. Thanks. I am a CIMB Preferred. I like cash too  But don't think is a good idea to bring quite a big amount of cash to SG lor.  if u have SG OCBC, u can open online CIMB SG bank account. do it online.

QUOTE(David_Yang @ Jan 19 2020, 06:33 PM) Sounds very strange as OCBC and CIMB have absolutely nothing to do with each other. to open the SG CIMB bank account via online, one of the requirements is to instant transfer 1k sgd from local SG banks i.e OCBC SG.

QUOTE(David_Yang @ Jun 10 2020, 11:20 AM) For the ones at CIMB SG, which account you use: Star Saver or Fast Saver? Above 50k Fast Saver is more attractive. i think to do online is only for fast saver

QUOTE(kiawin @ Jun 25 2020, 03:12 PM) I have a noob question here on CIMB SG. What should I put as the "purpose of payment"? I can't find any meaningful options. --- Perhaps this is the reasonable one - "Other Investment" -> "Placement/withdrawal of deposits of residents with/from financial institution abroad"? yup. thats good enough
