Hi all, did you guys subscribe to any mobile data plan in SG? My accommodation doesnt come with Internet connection, so I planned to take a MiFi device. Any recommendation?

What the heck SG ATM?

Why POSB can't use UOB ATM and vice versa?
In Malaysia, all ATM can be use inter-changeably

I mean shouldn't it be more convienient for public?

I think because you can merely find all ATMs in a shopping center, so it'd not be a problem.

Hi all, a question about staying in Singapore.

My landlord ask me for my EP for registering the HDB blablabla, but I yet to get the EP (got rejected because I'm unable to provide my degree cert because fresh graduate).

Is it true that we need to register our FIN to the HDB website?

hmm. You don't have an EP yet you stay in Singapore? My landlord asked me for a photocopy of EP as soon as I got one.

Because I'm staying with my friend, so we rent the room in advance. Quite hard to find accommodation especially after work. sad.gif

Why unable to provide degree cert? just graduate and waiting for convocation? just provide all semester transcript and completion of study letter is not enough?
*
Got rejected because lacking of some "words" on the completion letter according to the company. shakehead.gif
And I didn't get my latest transcript at that moment.

Hi guys,

Few weeks ago I've mentioned about my EP application has been rejected. The reason is because I have yet to receive a degree as I am fresh graduate and waiting for convo. As normal procedure, my school has issued me a letter of completion study and I've submit it to the company for my EP application, along with the transcripts.

However, MOM has rejected the letter of completion because it doesn't shows I've been awarded for a degree, instead it wrote "will be awarded a degree". Both MOM and my college refused to give in and insist on the issue. Anyone has faced the similar issue and what can/should I do? sad.gif icon_question.gif

When exactly will you get your degree then?
From what I know most public U students already started working in Sg even before the convo.
*
my convo will be in dec

QUOTE(seantang @ Oct 29 2012, 08:16 PM)
Just change your qualification in the application form from degree to provisional degree. Apply for the permit based on that.
*
will try to ask my company about this, thanks.

that i know. I'm not asking you. I'm asking shinnyx coz he's pretty sure his WP is rejected due to that very reason but gseed87 managed to get his.
*
The company told me it's rejected due to the "missing line" in my letter of completion study, and this is the reason given by MOM. This is all i know.

QUOTE(gseed87 @ Oct 30 2012, 09:16 AM)
Got rejected because he failed to provide his degree cert? I haven't receive my degree cert also, i just give them my printed transcript and a letter which state that i'm going to graduate. And yet i can get the IPA.
*
Hi, mind share what is written on the letter briefy? Especially the line "has awarded / will be awarded a degree", does it exist?

The letter is written in Bahasa Melayu. It stated that i will be graduated at Oct (subjected to result and fulfill the requirement of graduation). Anyway i had just received the degree certificate from my uni. My last step is go to MOM and collect my pass.
Never know written in Malay would be accepted. Anyway my application has been approved rclxms.gif Now waiting for IPA.
Thanks for the information anyway! laugh.gif

QUOTE(Lester1987 @ Nov 2 2012, 10:34 AM)
Telco doesn't accept IPA. Only banks do. you can try prepaid mobile internet. I believe passport should be good enough for those.
But when my friend apply for OCBC saving account, they refused to accept with IPA hmm.gif

I'm a fresh grad from top US university (first class honors). Do fresh grad commonly get this salary? The interviewer told me that 'top school' like NUS grad could get 3k.. but in fact my school is better than NUS if he's talking about ranking or being 'top'. So I'm thinking is this being underpaid or not.

Do you mind sharing what school to be exactly? And most importantly what industry are you going in?

Hi all,
I would like to have some advices from you all.
I am a fresh grad from marketing background, plan to work in singapore in future.
But my cousin bro told me that the salary will be low for a fresh grad with no experiences at all to work in singapore.
He suggests me to work in malaysia for 1 or 2 years only look for a job in singapore.

any advices from you all?
*
It is true. Although you don't see high salary for fresh graduate in Malaysia either but at least you can have a better life (In case you're staying with your family, etc.)

Hi guys, if I want to make calls back to Msia, what's the best choice? Skype credit or typical mobile line?

And btw, have anyone been issued a WP/SP/EP with only one year validity? What's probably the reason?

Hey guys, I planned to take Starhub but the staff required me to have a billing address (PUB/bank billing with my name). However I use e-billing for my bank account. So is there any alternative way to show the billing address?
