Review of YES Remit :

YES Remit is powered by one of the largest private banks of India YES Bank, which is offering its remittance services in 6 currencies across 5 countries which includes Australia, Canada, UK, Singapore, Switzerland and UAE. The company has different minimum and maximum transfer limit for different countries which is shown in the table under:

SGD 450 10000

You can transfer this amount through bank transfer, wire transfers, cheque deposit and remittances through exchange house. Only Indian citizens or OCI/PIO holders can use the services of the company to send money to the beneficiary in India.

The company is not offering forward contract, spot and third party transfers to its customer which is a major drawback. Besides this, it offers free transfers to the people and also provides 24/7 customer support.

YES Remit is highly secured, so one can transfer funds worry free. So, on an overall basis, we rate it 7.5 out of 10.

The company takes 24-48 working hours to transfer funds in foreign currency cheque and bank account to bank account transfer. While, it also offers same day credit facility to its users living in Australia and Singapore.

Therefore, under this head, we rate it 8 out of 10, because it is not offering instant transfers as offered by many of its competitors.
