The Singapore Forum

I need some assistance. I am an attorney in the United States who has a client who died in Singapore. He had an online bank account with DSB. I do not have his username or password to the account.

I am trying to get information about the account so I can transfer it back to his father in the states.

Will the bank provide me the information if I provide them with a death certificate and proof of probate in the United States? Any unusual laws that may get in the way?

I have not heard back from the bank after emailing them. Thank you for your assistance.

Yeah, I let it through because it was the first forum based one we've seen I think. Bit of a milestone.

If it is a real question, then why not (a) contact the bank directly or (b) engage a local solicitor to sort it out?

With 12-16 hour time differences, it is difficult, but only slightly so.

Please send me $10,000 and details of your bank account and I'll be happy to help.

is this one of Saddam Hussain's sons?

Was he living here too ?

DSB? New bank ?

probably in one of the storm drains...

DSB is for Development Bank of Singapore. The account is with POSB which is part of DSB according to their website. I have tried their general email but have not received a response. Trying to get an actual person or the bank to repond.

I do not know how much is in the account. It could be $10 or $10,000. I am looking for a contact at the bank to assist me.

It was for an American citizen living in Singapore when he died.

If you're genuine you might get a better response if you get their name right. DBS

DBS have 24 hour telephone banking enquiry services - why not give them a call?
