Singtel Dash EasyEarn Review
Aside from spending, I am also using Dash to save my money. With the current COVID-19 situation, banks have been cutting interest rates. But Dash EasyEarn is providing 2% p.a for your saving. Technically, Dash Easy Savings Account is a insurance policy, but it works like a bank savings account. So what are the pros and cons?
Pros: | Cons: |
---|---|
2% per annum interest (much better than bank savings account or even fixed deposit) This 2% holds for deposits up to $20,000 Capital-guaranteed Protected by SDIC No lock-in period Comes bundled with life insurance (Be automatically covered with a death benefit of 105% of your Account Value) | There is a $0.70 fee for withdrawing to bank account (quite a low fee in my personal opinion) Minimum balance of $2000 in order to earn the max 2% interest (quite a low requirement again in my personal option) The 2% interest rate is only guaranteed for the first policy year. |
Tight integration with eNETS for topup
I had to use eNETS for the transfer of funds into Dash EasyEarn, and it is via eNETS only. The funds are almost in within split seconds and I could see the funds in Dash EasyEarn straight away.
