Hi guys, I just opened my cimb fastsaver account and about to fund the account. Looking through the comments in this forum, it's usually from cimb my to cimb sg. But did anyone tried funding using instarem and to fund minimum (eg. SGD 10) from own cimb account? Would it still recognize as our own fund transfer?

How to link? I never got any e-mail.

I went called both Malaysian and CIMB hotline to try to open SG bank acc and they told me only able to open a bank acc if I go to SG physically.

Is there other way where I can do it online?

After linking Singapore account, the pre-activated Singapore account number will automatically appear in cimb clicks?

Or the Singapore account number will only appear once we complete the activation process?

When will it appear?

Before transferring the funds or after?

I didn’t see any bank account in my cimb clicks

I just noticed that TransferWise offers Borderless account (with account details) in SGD!!

if need a referral code, PM me ya....

hey guys, this question is for those who opened a CIMB FastSaver SG account but doesn't have a CIMB Malaysia account  or whoever has similar experience with it

i just signed up for CIMB FastSaver SG and I'm at part where I need to make a SGD1,000 deposit to get it activated.

i have been told time and time again that the direct TT fees from Malaysian Bank to Singapore Bank costs a ton so i'm looking to maybe use a 3rd party app (InstaREM/TransferWise/etc) to make the transfer.

however, i have also been told that for the initial SGD1,000 transfer for account activation, transfer via 3rd party apps is not allowed, i.e. they want the money transferred from an account under YOUR name for verification purposes which i guess i understand. subsequent transfers into CIMB SG via 3rd party apps are fine.

that said, have anyone here risked it and transferred the SGD1,000 activation deposit into CIMB SG anyway with a 3rd party app? i mean, the account number has already been created anyway.

separately, how much fees did you incur when you direct TT transferred the SGD1,000 from Malaysia to CIMB SG (either from CIMB Malaysia or other Malaysian banks)?

if it helps with answering this question, I currently have an AmBank Malaysia and StanChart Malaysia bank account. I do really want to avoid opening a CIMB Malaysia account but if the general answers that come in says that the CIMB MY -> CIMB SG rates are better than 3rd party apps, I may just have to cave and open one anyway

didn't know instagram offer that service. 

anybody tried transfer from cimbsg to cimbmy directly using cimbclicks ?
is the rate better than TW as claimed ?

Tried linking my CIMB with CIMB SG, got the reference number but when I check the status, there is nothing, not even 'in progress' or whatever that is suppose to show up. Is that normal or should I be concerned?

I found your summary last page insightful, but I don't think I've seen you post about your options strategy anywhere so far? Could you point me to anywhere here in LYN where you talk about your strategy?

I find youube better for learning about options.

Apologies for late reply,... was busy,...

You put it so easily in the above,... Upon seeing your reply now, I'll just say this very simple thing : What if you bought Lemonade and AMD and the price dived deep down and put you in the red, you'd be having unrealised capital loss. You can't sell because you'd be experiencing real loss then, and you'd continue holding,... causing you opportunity loss in other counters.

One of these days, there could come a time when there is no options offered on Lemonade and AMD,... causing you not being able to earn anymore premiums.

Conceptually,... the above line is something like the DLC game,... for many ctrs, though you are very good in the movement of such ctrs, you can't earn from DLCs because there are just no DLCs offered for such ctrs. Yeah,... we can say,... such ctrs have no liqiduidity, etc,... but the fact remains that nobody offers DLCs for such ctrs, so we can't play and profit from these ctrs.

I have long warned him options are not "dividends" per se. That extra premium comes with the risk one has to bear. Everyone has different risk appetite. His is somewhat mouthful haha

Actually,.. it's very dangerous for investors and new investors to read such postings,.. equating option premiums with dividends received. Must not follow blindly,...
