23.08 ? wow just a week ago i was getting 23.24 around bkk

23.08/23.24= 0.99

That's a 0.6% difference. Assuming you change 10K SGD. How much do you lose. A mere $60 SGD. And if you change 1k SGD, that's only $6.

A mere 0.6% change and someone call it a roller coaster ride??? this guy really risk averse sia....

the AUD/SGD exchange rate can change from 1.34 to 1.25 in a few days. That's about 6.7%. this is what i call roller coaster ride.

**Waiver of commission charges for your first three international ATM withdrawals each month (the usual charge is S$5 per withdrawal)**

which cards from UOB?

Just checked with UOB, seems the only Debit Card with this feature is the Visa R Gold Card which carries an annual fee of 60.

not worth it if you are not a frequent user. Think i still better off with the 5 dollar ad hoc withdrawal
