The thing is. As a bank, how can only rely on Singpass face verification alone to decide whether to lock your acc for life? Isn't that strange? I can only hope my face stays the same. Forever.
My acct not locked so I don't know the options. But I know singpass face verification is impt. I port over hp also used it. I assume singpass will have our new photo every 10 years. Don't play play with singpass.

Have you ever tried transfer out large amount. I know you are a die hard fan but please aga aga lio ho esp see so many complains at Facebook. If really sway sway acc ganna lock then at least you still have funds elsewhere to tide over.

No, my savings acct less than $100 for giro payments. My entire savings in saveplus. I no big money to do transfer. :confused: I read articles that there have been many scams, and govt and banks have been implementing measures to block big transfers, especially to overseas.

If maribank goes down, I still have my CDC and sg60 to last me for a few wks until my salary comes in. I no cash, all digital payments.

Er.. not overseas hor. We play merry go round these days not easy. Last time every month end we from Esaver to isavvy, isavvy back to Esaver, 通畅无阻, these days may sudden get blocked. It is good we don't put all eggs in 1 basket. At least keep one other bank to act as back up fund.

I just transferred $XXK from Mari Bank to DBS via FAST without any issue. The transfer was immediate. Mari Bank is SDIC-insured. When I sell from Mari Bank Invest, the money is transferred to Mari Bank.

Issit? I thought they are local transfer especially the one talking about paynow to own NRIC.

Customer service personally i find their cs is only a front. Many a times they can't get the things to move especially back end has the full control. And the disturbing part is we can't get to the backend except through the hotline who only knows how to parrot the same replies after they vet through the tnc.
Sad to say my experience with them is so so. I need to call various times talk to different cs try my luck to keep pushing.
The experience you mentioned above seems like Shopee CS. I didn't have such an encounter with Mari-Bank, but I did experience what you mentioned with Shopee CS. You may share your feedback with Maribank https://www.maribank.sg/info/share-your-feedback, Alternatively, you may also escalate the matter to FIDReC.

Usually I transfer 10k also no issue. Not sure for those who do 50k though..

u guys better not put your $$$ with Mari.
just be careful...
In my opinion, can put but not wise to all in laa. Just to play safe.. especially they don't have a physical branch and everything rely on Singpass Face Veri.

I was hoping the price of Mari Invest Income would come down so that I could nibble a bit. It only went down briefly from $9.57 to $9.55 and is now settling at $9.56.

What is the purchase cut-off date for the next interest of this fund to be credited? Thanks

if xd on 28 aug, your buy order must be submitted on 27 aug (record date) before 3pm. then buy order will confirm on 28 aug, and complete on 29 aug. payout on 29 aug.

buy order: T(before 3pm) submit > T+1 confirm > T+2 complete
date: T record > T+1 ex div > T+2 payout

(not vested in mii)

Tmr zero return again for Mari Bank Saveplus. This week is likely another X4, assuming tmr NAV is +1. If this is the case, it will be 3 weeks in a row.
