Just be honest. U want to earn 2.75% from ocbc coz cutoff 9.45pm and 3.6% from scb. Explain to the officer the mechanism (which i think they are aware of this already). If asked for ur salary, just tell them, they just asking all the question inside the questionnaire.

And maybe u can ask, is it legal to do so? And let us know whether the staff can answer. Ahahahah

Bravo! 👏

managed to open this account via online method.
easy and fast! looking forward to enjoy the interest from this account!

how?

No need to do biometric or NRIC verification?

Took 1 hour to open it at their branch last week.

There's an APPLY tab upon logging into SC internet banking portal.
Otherwise you can use the "Let's get in touch" section on PSA page or "Get In Touch" button.

I'm more curious if there's any need to do the identity verification.

just like fill up form in computer , electronic signature … submission and 2-3 hours got the account.

I hold standchart credit card... so its pretty simple for my case

I also hold SC credit card prior to PSA opening.
That time, I applied at the booth and they still need to do identity verification using the portal biometric machine.

one of the officer contact me to confirm I want to have this account, then send me the form via email. (on phone 2mins)
Signed & email back (took me around 5-8mins)
wait for 2-3 hours
another officer call to verified and confirmed (on phone 2-3 mins )
Completed.
Account available

the process is easy and straight forward.

Wow, so simplified already!

By the way, did they request a copy of NRIC?

nope. without NRIC copy

I'm impressed with SC!
They leap ahead into digital banking now!

i tried yesterday night. nobody called me today. how long did it take for you from form filling to cs call? did you manage to attach any documents towards the end? tq

Not really sure. Maybe on Monday evening? Then Wednesday someone call me...Thursday morning fill the form ...around same day 2pm++ informed by the officer account successfully created...

alright thanks

Perhaps you'll get a call on next Monday.

didnt realize can try open online earlier. else will move out from ocbc if get to open this.

I know that there's an option to open online but what I'm impressed is no need to go to the branch to complete certain procedures or to do any biometric verification.

If I want to transfer rm60k to MBB in one day, can I transfer rm50k using IBFT and rm10k using Duitnow Online?
