Whats the difference between a cheque and a cashier order? :/

cheque ish chiu/me/company issue huan. Cashier order ish bank issue huan.

Cashier order other names are bank draft, demand draft, cashier cheque, though in local contacts the first 2 usually refers to cashier order drawn in other currency (not sgd)

Thanks for the explanation :) but we are still able to pay by cheque instead of a cashier's order, just that chances of having a bounced cheque would be lower if i pay by cashier's order?

Additional charge of $5 for cashier order application. Within 5-10mins can le, after u ask the cso in the bank, then he/she will give u the form to fill in, just fill in some details then they can do le. Immed. Haha.

minutes in fact. just go to ur bank queue up, tell the teller u want cashier order, she will ask u fill a form (get ready sim particulars), fill up n give her back she will settle the rest for u riao. The longest i ever waited is 30mins but it was for a demand draft, i drop off the form leave my contact no. n went shopping:s34: They call me up when it was done. However there are other cost involve.

LOL...cuz it cost them to issue the cheque?

yes, that is if u have a checking account. Cashier order is usually for those who dun have a checking account. Cashier order cfm wont bounce one la, it's guaranteed by the bank that issue the cheque. Only under 2 condition u wun receive the morleeh: bank bankrupt, the cheque is a fake.

Moi is recommand those who got cc/debit card pay them can earn points. :o
No have pay by nets (use 2/3 card). If not go ask ur parent or trustable relatives write cheque for chiu. If not just ask the bank for 1k bill and pay by cash nia. CO should be your last choice

Just a note, if you apply for cashier's order via DBS/POSB i-banking, it's free and you can specify which bank branch you want to collect it at (on the same working day).

Applied for my cashier's order via i-banking and it was hassle free. Completed eCR and paid the course fees at SIM on the same day.
