I did 2 transfers out of my SCB, once yesterday and once today ... both in the mornings .... both were blocked and put on hold for 24hrs .....

For both days, later in the same day around dinner time, SCB CS called me and asked me if I did a legit transfer out....

Yesterday, I replied that it was legit and the transfer was to a family members other bank acct. I asked if the CS can effect the transfer immediately ... then the CS proceed to ask me to state exact amounts of $$ of my recent past few transfers (within and to outside SCB) .... I said I never bother to remember the exact amounts, especially those transfers within SCB .... I replied I cannot remember and said I will leave it as it is, and let the transfer to take effect after the stipulated 24hrs.....

Today, when I received the call from SCB, I straight away say I will let the transfer goes through with the 24hrs deadline ....

you lucky they only block the transaction and still got people call you back. maybe you are their esteemed customer.

previously my whole account got blocked from transferring twice to a same account in 1 day. called sg CS and they said will have someone to call me back. after 2 days still no one call me back .

I received the above email invitation on Apr 30 and to join the bonus interest promo, I need to deposit S$100,000 on 31 May and I will be eligible to receive the bonus interest from 31 May 2026 to 31 July 2026. Is my understanding correct?

Technically correct but do note 31 may is a Sunday. I will suggest to do the deposit by 30 May.

Received Invite June2026C today, glad they send in time for me to clean up my 31May balance to $0.

Read the TnC and it said fresh funds 100K to qualify, ie not withdrawn and deposited within 30days. So not sure if there is a need to clean up as the Bonus Interest is on the entire amount and not incremental ADB. Is my understanding correct?

if we deposit on 31 May (Sunday), will it be valued that day?

read somewhere that deposits on last day of the month don't count towards ADB but does it count towards the end-day balance?
