SINGAPORE: OCBC Bank customers will be able to immediately freeze all their bank accounts in case of an emergency, such as when they suspect they have been scammed, through a new “kill switch” feature the bank rolled out on Wednesday (Feb 16).
This is the first time the bank’s customers will have access to such a feature. Previously, account freezing could be done only by bank staff when customers called in.
