Pag open ka account sir sa NAB make sure use your SG Address, I know someone kc they use Australia address since may kakilala dun. Ending dun pinadala ung letter ng account.
So mas natagalan pa. Pag SG Address soft copy marereceived mo and andun na instruction.
Ung atm card po makukuha nyo pag nagpersonal appearance na kayo dun. ireready na nila un. So deposit na lang kayo. What we did before we open the account first thru online, nagpaappointment then tsaka ngdeposit when we do our initial entry. Madami naman dun ATM machines ng NAB.
