How UOB protects you

From December 2024, there may be a 12-hour cooling period* when you submit a request to change your limit (3rd party local and overseas fund transfer). This is to combat online banking fraud and protect your accounts.

*This is in addition to the 12-hour cooling period for the activation of your new digital token.

Set a Money Lock amount in your existing UOB accounts to prevent unauthorised withdrawals.  Rest assured, your money continues to earn the same interest (up to 6% p.a. for UOB One Account). Simply use the UOB TMRW app or visit any UOB ATM in Singapore to lock any amount, anytime. You can unlock your funds at any UOB ATM in Singapore.

SGD deposits are insured up to S$100k by SDIC.

As part of the latest industry move to strengthen the resilience against phishing scams, we have introduced Singpass Face Verification (SFV) as part of the Digital Token set-up.

This additional layer of authentication will be prompted if there is any unusual or suspicious activity detected during the Digital Token setup process, which will make it harder for scammers to gain access to your accounts. This is in addition to the authentication required when you perform high-risk transactions currently, and is part of the bank’s continuous efforts to reinforce existing processes and controls, to detect and block suspicious transactions and accounts.

From end Nov 2024, we will progressively phase out SMS alerts and transition to email and push notifications on UOB TMRW for selected digital and card transactions.

To ensure your transaction notifications are not disrupted, please enable push notifications in your phone settings and update your email address today.

You can instantly disable your digital access and block your cards with our emergency self-service “kill switch” feature, if you suspect that your account has been compromised.

3 ways to do so:

• Call our 24-hour Fraud Hotline at 6255 0160 › Press 4 to activate Kill Switch
• Call General Hotline at 1800 222 2121, press 1 (for English) or 2 (for Chinese) > press 1 > press 2
• Make a report at our nearest UOB branch

Upon activating our self-service "kill switch" feature, you will receive two SMS notifications confirming the activation of the Kill Switch, which disables your digital access and blocks all your cards.
Any active digital login session will be terminated.

To re-activate your digital access, please call our General Hotline at 1800 222 2121 or visit your nearest UOB branch for assistance.
If you wish to re-enable all your cards, please unblock them via the UOB TMRW app, or call our General Hotline at 1800 222 2121, or visit your nearest UOB branch for assistance.

To ensure you stay informed about your transactions, please be informed that the unsubscribe option for selected outgoing payment alerts will be disabled from end July 2024 onwards. Instead, you will either receive email or SMS notification for the relevant transaction.
