Recently I received the call from DBS as I have fulfill 2 categories (spending / insurance) in the multiplier and asked me whether I am interested to invest .
Do not invest just to simply unlock "higher" tier.
If you want to invest, do your own research and consider alternatives, not just from bank.
See below for the eligible investment items and identify their charges / fees before you jump in unprepared just to end up with a wounded head
Any ideas what kind of investment DBS offer to unlock the 3rd ?
Can be found on multiplier page at the very bottom under "FAQ & Eligible Transactions"
