Thanks for that info. Can I ask whether you can transfer funds from one Citibank account say in Vietnam, and just transfer to another Citibank account, say in the UK, via Inet banking? If so, is the transfer instant, or would it take a few days?

It's a shame they don't have a branch here... nearest is in Saigon.

For Citi AU the Android app is terrible. The One Time PIN (OTP) you need to do virtually anything is absolutely useless. I used it once or twice with my Smart phone number then I would never receive the OTP SMSs, they insisted it must be a problem with Smart, so I got a second SIM from Metfone, and again it worked once then never again. So if I need to do anything I need to call them and speak to someone in the Philippines.

But for not having to pay fees for international transactions, yes they are good in that regard. I just wish they would open an office here.
