    සුභ අලුත් අවුරුද්දක් සිංහලු.

    මගේ HNB එකවුන්ට් එක දැන් අවුරුද්දක් විතර පරණයි. උන්ගෙ බෑන්කින් ස්ටාෆ් එකයි conventional banking පැත්තයි හොඳ උනාට ඩිජිටල් බෑන්කින් පැත්තෙන් නම් තාමත් ගව් ගානක් ඈතින් ඉන්නෙ. සමහර රජයේ බැංකුවල සිස්ටම් HNB එකට වඩා ඉස්සරහින් තියෙනව. HNB ඩිජිටල් බෑන්කින් ඇප් එක ඇක්ටිවේට් කරගන්න උන්ගෙ බ්‍රාන්ච් එක හතර පාරක් විසිට් කරල හෙඩ් ඔෆිස් කොම්ප්ලේන් කරලත් තාම බැරි උනා. මේ අවුරුද්දෙ NTB වලට මාරුවෙන්න බැලුවේ.

    NTB උන්ගෙ කස්ටමර් සර්විස් එක ගැන උඹලගෙ එක්ස්පීරියන්ස් එක කොහොමද? ෆ්රීමී ඇප් එක හොඳයි ඔන්ලයින් බෑන්කින් ෆ්ලැට්ෆෝම් එක කොහොමද? මම ගොඩක් වෙලාවට පාවිච්චි කරන්නෙ foreign remittance ගෙන්න ගන්න, පේපැල් ලින්ක් කරගන්න RFC (PFCA) එකවුන්ට් එකක් ඕපන් කරගන්න වගේ සීන් වලට.

    Already having accounts in Commercial Bank. For this particular purpose I need a separate bank. Do you have any suggestions?
    Here all the banks are same on nutshell, in terms of service , accessibility and tech support, Sampath, Commercial are way ahead , and NDB is catching up.

    Don't even think go near NTB they can be fancy in their tech terms but it's an abyss inside. Take my advice bro

    NTB is the worst bank I have ever dealt with! They charge for everything, and they are pretty misleading as well.
    Frimi is the only product that is good, their banking is utter shit.

    Source: I was an inner circle customer for 12 months and hated their service and lies. Their personal loan rates are 2%, 3% higher than each and every other bank and they do not hesitate lie about that as well.

    combank - both mobile and web app are simple,easy,secure and efficient (my presonal exprience). u can enable two factor authentication (OTP) for every online transactions even for debit card.

    sampath - good option but they have very confusing password policy

    NTB - android app is ok but password is just a PIN number and no OTP verification

    Why the hell you want to select a bank just because of the App ? If their policies are bad ? Typical attitude 😝

    Patta boru, Appririyama bank eka NTB. If you haven't worked them with then you do not know. Aruu kiwwa, muu kiwwa type talks are not reliable! If you need to give away your money to them, then it is fine.

    If you need an online banking solution you can use NTB's frimi app without creating a new account. (It is a virtual acc). Then you can connect any bank account to that Frimi acc and topup the required amount when only needed. (Interest rates are 0% or really low )

    I've never had any issue with them. Their account benefits are also pretty solid depending on your account type :)

    Account type? Inner circle? Salary Saver? I had everything. Their loan rates are at least 3% higher than BOC, Commercial bank. And they lie about number of things. Most of their banking staff are young, unexperienced peeps.

    What are the account benefits you are talking about?

    I've never taken loans so have no idea regarding it. But max bonus account is pretty solid and they do give the mentioned benefits :)

    You get your ATM, you get your online access , all the banks are using CEFT and SLIP transfers, they charge standard ATM withdrawal charges, and the saving interest is almost the same with all the banks with different account types, when you select a bank go for the reputation and what they have done to the general public , NTB is not having good records when they deal with their loans. For me NTB is noting but abyss

    That's individual perception. For me it's the best if you have Frimi too :)
