Nothing. Just open. It's free what  tongue.gif Besides, if you tell them you want to open an account without a stock broker account, guaranteed they won't let you open. Btw, choose the DBS debit card. Don't take the POSB debit card. DBS card is free while POSB is SGD12/year (free for first 5 years)

Thanks for highlight.

So DBS Vickers and DBS Multiple account with DBS debit card ?

Can all be done within half day?? I can be there in the Friday morning and my flight to go home is Sunday.

No need to request for card. Auto will give you. It's either POSB Passion card or DBS Visa debit card. If they give you POSB passion card, settle everything then approach front desk customer service tell them you want to change card to DBS Visa Debit card

Lots of paperwork to do (DBS vickers). During my time, waiting time is almost on par with BSN shakehead.gif

Thanks. I am here now.
Got Multiplier account first with DBS visa.

I afraid they know I didn't open Vickers and close my banking account.

Actually I can just go off.

The officer also didn't ask many why why why..

Went to two UOB branches. One disallowed me to open ANY accounts.

Another one is the UOB Plaza one. I tried to use some ways to talk about investment, FD, short term deposit.

They allow to open savings account in SGD. But USD would be very difficult.

Ya. I was quite lucky. The officer didn't ask many. Just said everything is up to approval.

I thought she helped me submit all data and wait her superior to review. But then I saw she was doing the debit card etc.... so I believe is approved liao.

That's if you feel like not using the multiplier account then close it.  If you are like jack2 who needs the multiplier to buy crypto, then  maintain it.

Second step, open POEMS, transfer your FSM SG and FSM MY holdings over into POEMS.

No point paying FSM MY 1.75% and FSM SG 0.1% per quarter when POEMS is free right?  Unless of course you don't mind giving people free money tongue.gif I know I am not generous to corporations laugh.gif
