      CIMB FastSaver Account

      This is a basic savings account. It is pretty fuss free and dont need to fulfill multiple conditions to get the savings tier interest rate. The base interest rate of 1.5% is not bad, the more money you have, the higher the interest tier, up to 100K.

      CIMB FastSaver Account

      [Interest] Interest is at 1.5% PA for first $20,000 as long as you have $1,000 in your balance. [Application Process] It was very fast and fuss free via SingPass, filled up information such as employment details & what I was using the account for. The next day, I got the key to register my CIMB Clicks account & was able to access the funds. [Online Banking] The app banking was very easy to use but the web banking was very outdated and ugly compared to other web iBanking.

      [Fuss Free] Very easy to open online. Not much hassle at all. [Interest] Interest rates are relatively higher for the no-frills tier. I put any remaining money I have after the 10k for Singlife.

      Opened the FastSaver-i account because I wanted a Shariah-compliant account. $1k minimum and no fall below fee. [Application Process] The online application was a breeze. [Online Banking] Is okay. Easy to use once you get used to it.

      CIMB FastSaver Account

      I use CIMB to hide my money from my spouse. Very good. Would be even better if can make it easier for Singaporean to have a SG / MY account with just one sign up and make easy cross currency exchange so I can withdraw Malaysian dollars while shopping in JB/KL easily without having to find money changer.

      CIMB FastSaver Account

      Moving the money to and fro this account is a bit harder as there are not many ATMs for CIMB in Singapore, but this also means that money in this account would be less likely to be touched and helps in saving! Also fuss-free interest rate with no conditions, making this one of the easiest saving accounts for people that do not spend a lot

      CIMB FastSaver Account

      [Interest] I opened this account almost 2 years ago and it has given me really decent interest compared to other banks. Everything was all well and good until Covid-19 happens so they have decreased their interest rates. [Fuss Free] If you want fuss-free savings account without all the requirements etc, then this account is for you.

      CIMB FastSaver Account

      [Fuss Free] One of my high yield fuss-free savings account before i chance upon SCB jumpstart account. However, still a decent savings account to park your addition funds after you have maxed out your SCB jumpstart account (also good for emergency funds) [Online Banking] The user interface of online banking and the app looks outdated and confusing at start. Require some time to get used to but transfer of funds around is smooth in my opinion so far.
