    Have you ever bought a degree online?

    Did you take the test on the MOM website? I am in the same position as you. From what I gathered, they care more about your salary amount.

    Personal and corporate bank accounts in Singapore

    I didn't fly there, but my case may be different because I had an agent open it for me. Normal minimum deposit is S$200k.

    Personal and corporate bank accounts in Singapore

    I spoke with DBS Singapore. Non residents can open a DBS Treasures account with S$350k as soon as representative offices are open. For what it's worth, I opened an OCBC Premier account remotely this year. From what I remember, they said for a business account I would need to fly to their...

    Transferwise Refund after Account Closure

    I've checked their AUP, I didn't violate any policies. In the eyes of the consumer it's random, since I didn't do anything wrong. They simply don't like something about my jurisdiction/turnover and cut me loose. I hit the $5m limit in Jan so the account has been dormant since then. You're...

    Transferwise Refund after Account Closure

    The closure was random. Honestly I don't have the energy to apply for any more accounts/EMI's. The amount is relatively small (low 5 figures) and would write it off as a mistake on my part for leaving the money there (the account was dormant). I created this thread to see if anyone could...

    The company is in the UAE. The whole reason for using Transferwise was because I couldn't open an account anywhere else I tried.

    I forgot to mention I cannot open a business account for this company. The only way I can receive funds is to a personal account.

    Transferwise Refund after Account Closure

    Transferwise are claiming they will only refund money from my business account to a bank account under my business name. I don't have such an account, do I assume these funds are now lost, even if I am the sole shareholder? Has anyone else had any success in this situation?

    Closing IBC Structure

    I have been quoted $23k by the provider to dissolve the structure, and threats of legal action if I don't pursue. My belief was that I can simply choose to not pay the renewal fees? Last edited: Jun 16, 2020

    EMI for UAE/Dubai

    Yes it's long term. I'll follow your advice regarding office space and reapply. Does the office need to be staffed also, will they make surprise visits?

    EMI for UAE/Dubai

    My business is very transparent and I receive regular payments from the same companies. Good point. I'll do this tomorrow. To be honest opening another TW would be my last resort option. I prefer to diversify, and also not risk/raise any flags that may harm my current account. As per...
