CapitaCard MasterCard Platinum Debit is the best choice
rite?..thanks guys
the DBS one seems not bad.
personally, i recommend the UOB visa gold debit card. Visa is
accepted by more places than mastercard. I am an UOB fan by the
way.
it boils down to 3 factors:
1) Visa or mastercard
2) bling factor. you want platinum, gold, or ordinary card.
3) benefits. discount available for cards by different
banks.
UOB got the widest range of discounts, compared to dbs and ocbc,
among the local banks.
ATM-wise, although posb, dbs have the most atms, uob and ocbc
ain't far behind too.
cos of lower user-rate, the queue at uob/ocbc atm is much much
faster than that of posb,dbs. 1 uob atm is faster than the 3-5 dbs
atm. you can observe this at any mall or mrt station.
also, uob and ocbc atms are interchangeable. so your atm
coverage is quite considerable.
as for the other banks, i wouldn't suggest it. their ATM are
hard to find, and comes with limited discounts. also, depositing of
cash might not be convenient.
