Anyone know where to get SG coins changed into notes. do any banks provide this type of service for free? I bank with StanChart but they won't accept them.
I have over $600 in coins and no idea on the number of coins - possibly 1500-2000.
Thanks in advance.

DBS Bank has Coin collection machines, they dont give you out Notes but they credit the funds into your account. There's also a minimal fee for the service. Check their website, you should be able to see the locations where these machines are available.

Would make sense to open a savings account with POSB then.

Changing jobs

Hi,
Usually what is the impact of changing jobs in Singapore on a PR application?
Last post
Usually nothing but still must update. Unless, you are going from a 12K/month job to a 2K/month job. Then they might want to reconsider.
