The convenience is hard to beat for me. =) I don't mind paying extra for it. But I guess it's gonna be Malaysian cards for the time being.

If you monitor the extras that you are paying, IMHO it's not really worth it even though banks throw in the 5X reward points or Cash Back. Unless it's business expenses then I'll spend anyhow

Btw, anyone here still drive a Malaysian car with Malaysian driver's license to work in Singapore after working there for more than a year? I've read something about mandatory license conversion or something before.

Been driving like that for more than 5 years. No problem, never get asked or stop

I'm guessing this doesn't apply if apply together with the employment letter?

So without employment letter (which I doubt any banks will accept that proof since anyone can type such letter), you are implying money to put in to open is higher?

OMG 100+-. You using their credit card and pay 3 bills etc also?

I don't have 3 bills to pay every month doh.gif
*
Yes. I qualify all, salary, cc, 3 GIROs except for their investment bonus

QUOTE(zephyrus9999 @ Feb 25 2017, 10:51 PM)
does the bonus takes into account the monies we have in their time deposit?

so... interest calc is based on first 60k. Does the time deposit make up part of the 60k? I cant find in the faq maybe I'm blind
*
I don't think so. Must buy their fund, unit trust, etc. I'm not interested in those thus never bother.
Just drop OCBC a visit to understand more. Worth the time since this give you $100 x 12 moo lah a year
