    OCBC Frank Account

    [Fuss Free] Super easy account to deal with! a very transparent bank account. when they say no initial deposit, it's really no initial deposit! [Customer Service] Just a call away or even walking to the branch, I can get help from the officers or ambassadors. They were always so patient with all the questions I have to throw them. [Interest] One of the best "student" account offering rates I would say! [Online Banking] Super easy to use especially the app! They are offering more services on the app right now like example if I lose my card I can actually block it just in case somebody picks it up and went ahead swiping my money away! [Application Process] I applied the account in the FRANK store but they are offering the service of opening the account online as well. So convenient these days :) [Others] they have so many card designs to choose from.. I had a hard time picking hahaha

    OCBC Frank Account

    [Interest] I created a Frank account during my secondary school because I realized the interest rate is higher than my kids account. Comparing to most, it has an interest rate of 0.2% as compared to 0.05% of any kids account. [Application Process] Frank stores around Singapore looks and feels amazing, it felt like I was joining a "cool kids" club. I remember paying $10 more for the debit card design, but now it's free. [Terms and Conditions] No fall-below fee below 26 years old as compared to most other banks which will stop waiving fall-below fees after 21 years old. In my opinion, this is the best feature of the card as I'm unable to maintain minimum account balances, especially after big-ticket item payments. [Online Banking] One of the best banking apps, alongside with DBS/POSB. There are some functions that seem confusing and foreign. Would appreciate it if there was a sort of tutorial or video to illustrate the benefits of using them. [Others] To be honest, the most attractive part about getting the Frank account is its cool designs. I remember using it as a conversation starter ("Hey, did you get a Frank card too? Which design did you pick?") and it gives us a sense of exclusivity that no other banks can give.
