What is eStatement?
eStatement is a PDF version of your monthly account statement. You have the option to download it from CIMB Clicks or have it delivered to your email (Email Statement Delivery).
What is the difference between a savings account/-i and a current account/-i?
A savings account/-i generally offers a higher interest rate or profit rate, making it a preferred option if you’re looking to save and grow your funds. On the other hand, current account/-i typically offer more transaction flexibility as it allows account holders to make frequent and large transactions and withdrawals. Current account/-i also often come with other features such as an overdraft facility, or a chequebook facility, thus making them a more convenient option for day-to-day expenses.
