Yes they opened on a Sat.  I just opened my account at a POSB branch two weekends ago on a Saturday.  I went there early at around 9am.  It was easy to open, just produce Malaysian IC. They did not even ask for a passport. I opened with SGD500.  If less than SGD5000, you will need to pay SGD2 per month or SGD24 per year.

They issued me a Debit card and also activate internet access. Very fast and done within 30 minutes.

I went to Clementi Ave 3 branch. Yes I don't have work permit.  I work in KL but travel to Singapore about 4-5 times a year.

Oh i see... Thanks for your reply.

I have to deposit SGD 5,000 to avoid a monthly SGD2 maintenance fee sad.gif

I will try to get a HSBC Singapore saving account since i'm an existing HSBC customer (MY). Hopefully not get rejected by HSBC Singapore sad.gif
