Only suspicious sources will trigger the transaction to be halted and pending for notification then and there is no limit for trigger but the source of the money itself

if transfer from own wise account to own local bank account will definitely not trigger? i remember there is like 10k then bank will call you

For small sums, yes. But he said a large sum, and for large sums, the Wise currency account cannot hold so much cash.....

if want transfer 100k RM meaning is large sum right? i recently tried 5k euro around 23k RM got it directly from my local bank.
the rest will be just by batch am i correct?

Wise account in Malaysia limit is up to 20k hence not worth opening for it unless you planning to domicile long here and since BNM have FX controls your account would be riskier can be anytime been freeze them 🤦‍♀️

Open Wise in Tier1 regulated countries like UK and Australia

Don’t bother with money changer as they will charge you a bigger spread and you lose out at least 1.5%

You better off changing the money with your relatives to get better and fix value rather paying off another 3%
