New Guideline for Writing Cheque Effectively

Member of PIDM
It’s good to issue cheques securely and conveniently
Dear Valued Customer,
We would like to inform you that effective 1 April 2014, the following guides for writing cheques would come into effect. These measures
are taken in order to safeguard your cheques and accounts from fraud, and to avoid processing errors or bounced cheques.
For payments to Credit Card, Loan/Financing Accounts:
If you’re writing a cheque as payable to the Bank (SCBMB or SCSB) i.e. for
payment to Credit Card, Personal Loan/Financing or Mortgage Account, please
ensure that the complete Account Payee Name or Account Number is also
written as part of the Payee Name.
