Babyblue 0 Report post Posted June 17, 2009 same here. We also got my bank loan from Standchart and their service is excellent. The banker updated us at every stage either via phone call or sms and we really appreciated it as we were clueless on the bank loan since its our 1st time. She also advised us on the amount of loan that we need to get as we really didnt want to be tied down with a huge amount of bank loan. In fact, we had approached other banks but they didnt even bother to get back to us and wasnt helpful even when we were down at the branch to seek their advice. Talk about local bank, the banker took down my contact number and asked me to fax the necessary to her the next day. She never once called me to check why I had yet to fax to her. I felt very turnoff when I spoke to her as she wasnt very forthcoming in answering my questions. Merely hurried me to fax the documents to her before she reveal about the procedures or the interest. That's the reason why I also cant be bothered to fax to her. may i asked. when were u informed of ur current acct details & received ur cheque book? am wondering now if their after sales service is as good. i emailed the sales person since last fri but has yet to get a reply.

chan.margie 0 Report post Posted May 24, 2010 Few months back I borrowed renovation loan from DBS bank. DBS property loan promotion is offering many other options suitable for different requirements. You better go through dbs loan promotions for more details. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
