I think in Singapore – is it not customary to burn your money so that it appears in heaven or hell

I will be moving to Australia. How do I go about transferring my money here to there?

Hello, 10dollar.

A Google search with the keywords transferring money overseas should yield some usable results.

This website, for example, has some pretty useful information about sending money abroad.

Hope that helps! Very Happy

You are not transferring 10 dollar is it? Mr. Green Just kidding.

Seriously, if you have an account with DBS, I believe DBS has a retail bank in Australia. You may need to check with them. In fact, your best bet is to check with the bank.

ONce you have both account, then just do a T/T.

Anyways, check with your bank. They can still transfer money to whichever Bank you bank with in Australia.

All the best in your new life in Australia! Wink

the best way to tranfer money to australia is to collect all the money and seal it up in your envelop and send it across.......and see how quick the money is stolen later................

what i am saying here is an analogy of craft dingoes...........they wait in packs..............good luck dear......don't be ripped off.......

littlestream SG

Alamak.......lau goh, maybe he's a young kiddo going to uni leh, really don't know much about banking mah.

Then, you post this old fashion method. Mr. Green

Open a bank account in Australia and do a telegraphic transfer.

Or buy a bank draft from your local bank and bring it to Australia, then deposit it into the bank.

whatever.......yeah i am old fashioned.........but perhaps IDP education australia portray australia to be such a beautiful country......when people who stayed there long enough will know........anyway i have tasted the forbidden fruit of knowledge......you won't understand it until you have eaten it yourself.......anyway many people i talked about australia left me the same impression and IMAGE.......so i shan't talk bad about this country least i get BANNED!hahahahaha

anyway there is the DBS bank draft stuff that you can rely on.........

you will know when you are in australia.....good luck......

Buy a bank draft, place it in an envelope, paste a stamp on it and send. Laughing

Fatum SG

no matter what you do ... the bank gets a cut .... Laughing

ditzy SG

You can carry up to only AUD$9999 with you and pass immigrations without a hitch. Laughing

gohkatkat SG

but he is going there alone.....is it??? or you have relatives there???if so send the bank draft there to their address.......but i must advice you........

if going alone....keep the bank draft and when you are there the you open a bank acc and then transfer the money there.........remember this phrase my dear singaporean friend......even the user in this chat called FATUM also said the same thing......

anyway a phrase which i send to you for knowledge.............discern not the faces of evil......for evil is always hidden.....pray day and night that evil doesn't stalk into your room......vigilance.......as always.........

and you might even come back and tell me a word like thanks........

littlestream SG

*ahem* don't like that lah. Laughing

how else do you think i get my salaries from? Mr. Green

littlestream SG

send to your address izzit? Mr. Green

ditzy SG

Bank draft takes 3 days to clear, tt also takes awhile, so make sure you carry loose change, but only up to AUD$9999 that is. Laughing

ditzy SG

I have no use for a bank draft that's not in my name. Laughing

littlestream SG

Hee hee.........yah hor. Sorry, ah buay koon ki. Embarassed

Fatum SG

that's by right ..... but by left it can just take 24 hours .... Laughing

I usually get my moolah infusion overnight ...

gohkatkat SG

just remember the bank draft takes a few days......to clear if i am not mistaken.......always have some quick cash at hand to meet needs.....

i think 3000-4000 should be enough for states that are poorer....states like the scarecrow state.......the dumbass state like south australia is a pathetic state such that 1000 should be enough for weeks......

states like NSW and VIC should require you to have more budget......bring more.........but in any case your money is stolen you might want to have some backup such as credit card.....
the POSB master debit should be okay........

and always remember in peril.......look up to heaven and shout out loudly HELP HELP HELP ......three times and god will manifest something out of thin air...........maybe even some droplets of water for blessings......... Laughing

Fatum SG

why ? what happened to you ? ... c'mon, tell ... Very Happy

gohkatkat SG

oh come on......i won't want to be a wet blanket to his dreams........but dreams are essentially dreams after all.............very few dreams come true........and even if they come true...............and this reminds me of this phrase.......SPIRITUAL PIPED dreams............

let him have some sort of liking for australia...........but however for me......having to have stayed in that sort of country for a while would then make me realise something..............seems as though i was woken up from my slumber..............as though someone was trying to rescue me from the hellpit...........

actually i don't have to guide him like a child.....i believe he has eyes...........and like what i used to tell people.............some people whom have eyes and yet can't see.......surprisingly.....some people who are blind "SEE BETTER"........so i shan't talk further........
