    I went thru a similar situation 2 yrs ago. My bathroom tile cracked when my contractor installed the water heater shower head holder. He bought a similar set of tiles, same pattern but different color. I refused initially because I wanted to check with the developer first. I asked UEM for the...

    Each of us have our own reasons to use the different methods available, what's good is that we share the info so that everyone benefits. Noticed that RM is strengthening now; anyone knows when is the next Fed meeting?

    Thanks bro. I have done transfer using DBS and also CIMB Sg to CIMB My; mostly for small amount or for urgent cash, specially CIMB since it's instant. But I still find the MCs give better rates. So, for larger amounts, I'll go to the MC.

    DBS Msia Remit rate wasn't very good today; didn't touch 3.05 even though RM dropped to a new low of 3.0781. Having said that, it's really not environmentally-friendly to send a hardcopy statement for each transfer; I received 3 hardcopy statements for 3 transfers done last week.

    You're welcome; this was shared to me by Crystal. The excellent rate is the main reason, convenience, safety and avoiding fake RM notes are bonuses to me. Same here; I'm doing dollar cost averaging this round. I only change $1000 every time the rate is higher.

    I perform the transfer around 4.50pm yesterday with the rate of RM1=S$0.3292 and I just checked; confirmed full amount is in without any deductions. The DBS portal will ask for the foreign currency that you want to transfer and then show you how much SGD will be deducted from the DBS bank...

    No need MC rate; try DBS Malaysia Remit... I just remitted at 3.0376. At the moment, there are no fees and the bank will take 1 day to transfer the funds.

    Renovation to your homes

    Sorry to hear about your situation. Zest Design was one of my shortlisted contractors back in April 2013, only because he could speak good English. But I didn't select him because he was slow to respond to me and he talked more than he listened to my ideas. I couldn't work with a contractor who...

    Just to share; got stopped today around 8am on my way in to Sg. The TP checked my car number on his device and showed me 3 unpaid summons; all for speeding. I was asked to park my car and go to the counter to pay. At 1 side, the TP will print the list of summons and then you can choose to pay...

    Changed today at 2.63 rate at the Superlink BI near Petronas station; at that time XE.com rate was showing 2.64x only... Quite good considering Raffles in JP was giving 2.625 for cash & TT rates. The lady even asked if I wanted new notes for CNY, which I did and I took RM1x200 pcs and RM10x30 pcs.

    Try the curtain shop located in Tesco BI in front of the escalator or Level 2. I engaged them for my double storey corner house and they did good work for a decent price.

    No doubt that the money changers have old stock, but banks also have old stock. The difference is that bank has to follow their SOP for this because of the highly-regulated nature of the banking industry. Just sharing an opinion... Wonder if there's a banker than can reveal the inner workings of...
