Oh my goodness. I didn't realize that for me to transfer funds from my DBS bank account in Singapore to other DBS accounts also within Singapore that I need to register for some kind of iB Message service, which will send me SMS to confirm fund transfers when I make them or something or other.

That's perfectly fine except the application has to be done on paper. Which is also perfectly fine except for the fact that I'm half way around the world right now. Which means I have to mail the form in. Which means I have no idea how long it's going to take to get my application processed. Which also means I have to now decide between $20-30 Canada Post tracked mail, or $1.65 generic international mail. It actually almost seems like it could be less hassle and actually cheaper for me to use my NETS card to withdraw cash from a Canadian ATM, then go to a Canadian bank and purchase a bank draft in SGD and then mail it back to Singapore to the person I wanted to transfer money to.

Also the internet form is broken and I had to print out the blank form and fill it in by hand. Hopefully they'll accept that.

I heard a Singaporean accent for the first time in a while when I called DBS to find out more about this whole thing. Hooray for calling cards, otherwise my phone bill is definitely going through the roof for this month.
