Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

How will the chequebook fee impact me?
If you request for a new chequebook after 31 December 2020, S$10 or US$10 fee will be applicable for each chequebook according to the base currency of your account.

How will the Paper Statement Fee impact me?

If you have opted to continue receiving paper statements for your deposit accounts after 1 January 2021, the Paper Statement Fee of S$2 will start to apply in the following months (please refer to the above pricing table for the fees charged in other currencies).

For example, if you receive a paper statement in January 2021, the Paper Statement Fee will be charged to your account in February 2021.

If you have opted to receive eStatements instead, the Paper Statement Fee will not apply. However, please note that if the eStatement subscription is not processed in time (at least 10 workings days before your statement date) and a paper statement is generated for the month, relevant charges will apply.

This fee is not applicable to Priority Banking clients as well as clients below 18 years old or above 65 years old.

How is the Paper Statement Fee reflected in my statement?
The charge will be reflected as ‘Paper Statement Fee’ in your statement.

If I receive more than one paper statement for my deposit accounts held with the bank, how will I be charged?

The Paper Statement Fee of S$2 is charged on a per paper statement basis (please refer to the above pricing table for the fees charged in other currencies). You may request to link your deposit account(s) into a single consolidated statement to avoid multiple paper statement fees. This fee will not apply if you are receiving eStatements even if you have separate statements for your deposit account(s).

If I have more than one account in my Consolidated Statement, how will I be charged?

The Paper Statement Fee of S$2 will only be charged to your deposit account with the most recent account opening date (please refer to the above pricing table for the fees charged in other currencies). If there are insufficient funds in that account, it will be charged to the next available account.

How can I request for eStatements to avoid the Paper Statement Fee?

Simply log in to SC Online Banking or the SC Mobile App to change your statement subscription at least 10 working days before your next statement. The Paper Statement Fee will be charged on paper statements generated from January 2021 onwards.

Please note that if the eStatement subscription is not processed in time and a paper statement is generated for the relevant month, you will continue to be charged a Paper Statement Fee in the following month’s statement.
