I will trust it more than I trust a bank. Bank loan your money out. They don't.
Secondly, they are gearing up towards the "international nomad community".

In which year did you open your DBS account ?

Wow,... my earlier debate abt which is better between DBS and TW has come down to this,... guessed we know which to choose from these above discussions,....

And that Ramjade is still unwilling to close his DBS Account in spite of his curses against banks which ripped him off,....hehe,...

When I hear of all these comments abt TW,... I'd stay faraway from this particular fintech,.. just locking an account like that,...

I think should not be locking an account just like that without any court orders,...

That's good, bro,... then just leave it and stay far away from them from now,... it's good that you broadcast this information here.

Whether people listen or intended to take a contrarian view is not our concern anymore,.... but thank you for this information,.....

No need to broadcast la.. They have many supporters here and it is hard to believe from one side statement until proven so and I do not need to do so. It is non of my business.

The moment one writes here,... it is equivalent to broadcasting already. I merely expressed my appreciation that you took the time to write here.

Bro, only jack2 has problem with TransferWise  biggrin.gif Others here including me is impressed with this fintech

I have continued to use it. For major currencies (USD, GBP, AUD), the spread is excellent ! About 0.3xx% over XE middle rate. That is the rate local bank quote me for transferring a big amount (6 figures). But TW rate applies even it if it just S$10k. Strangely there is not much difference if you transfer S$10k or S$50k (my bank limit)

Opening account is very quick and simple also. Speed of transfer is also excellent.

You should try and compare with your DBS. I bet TW will be beat it

It is always good to know both sides of the story.


BY the way,... proof or no proof does not matter. The good news do not need to be proven too, just like the bad ones.
