Update schedule
When each number is read, when it was last read, and the facts we check by hand with their next check date.
Last updated
The times and dates below are filled in from our data files each time the page loads, so they show what actually happened, not what was planned.
Read automatically, every day
A scheduled job reads each source at these times and publishes the numbers only after the checks on How we get our numbers pass. If a job’s last read is overdue, the row is marked “late”, and a daily check alerts us whenever a job fails.
A read can find nothing new: MAS doesn’t publish SORA on weekends or public holidays, and T-bill and Savings Bond results come out on set dates only. The last-read time still moves, because the job has checked.
Checked by hand
Some facts can’t be read by a job: rules in terms and conditions, scheme limits, and banks whose pages can’t be read reliably. We check these against the source ourselves, put the check date on the page, and book the next check here, shown one week at a time (Monday to Sunday). A check past its date stays in this week, marked “overdue”, until it is done.

Checks done
- Proposed ฿300 tourist entry fee (TAT News front page). Our daily check flagged the TAT News front page because its headlines, weather and event lists changed. Nothing on it mentions the ฿300 entry fee or a start date, so the fee is still not in force as far as TAT says and the page is unchanged. Next monthly read stays 4 Dec
- Singlife Account: base returns, bands, minimum, bonus conditions. Our daily check flagged the page switching back from yesterday morning’s “will cease on 16 December 2026” wording to the old one: up to 3.0% = 1.5% base on the first S$10,000 + 0.5% Top-up Campaign + 1.0% Booster Bonus Campaign, “available from now until such time as updated by Singlife”. That matches what our page already says, so nothing changed. The 18 Nov read stays booked to see whether the end date comes back
- Founder page cards (numbers.sg/company/). Our daily check flagged our own company page because its live counts (corrections, updates, job runs) moved. Those counts update themselves and none is copied by hand onto the founder page, so nothing to edit
- Korea cash declaration: US$10,000, certificate, leaving amount. Our daily check flagged the Korea Customs page, but the only change was a hidden page token. All three sentences we quote word for word are still on the page unchanged
- Trip.com’s Singapore promo list. Our daily check flagged Trip.com’s 11.11 Mega Sale block (11 to 14 November 2026, up to S$220 off). Our page already lists the 11.11 sale ending 14 Nov, so nothing changed. The post-sale read on 15 Nov stays booked
- UOB’s four SRS sources, after UOB’s site failed to load earlier on 12 Nov. UOB answered again by the afternoon, in curl and in Chrome. Its SRS page, deposit rates page, charges schedule and offer terms are byte for byte the copies read that morning, and every link still works, so none moved. Reading the SRS page line by line turned up a mistake of ours: UOB does warn about tax on early withdrawals, in a pop-up on the very line we said lacked it. That is corrected on the page and in the log
- Klook’s DBS, OCBC and UOB promo pages, read in Chrome. Klook’s main promo list hasn’t changed since 6 Nov, and its Grab and Maybank 11.11 codes drop off by themselves after 13 Nov. The bank pages had moved on: UOB added a Johor Bahru code and moved its Japan codes to the start of each month, and DBS’s Tuesday code now names the TravelLah! debit card too. Those three are on the page. The OCBC and UOB 7% codes were sold out, so they wait for the 14 Nov read
- Trip.com’s promo list, our AMQIK5 invite page and its referral terms, read in Chrome. The list is now dated 11 Nov and still leads with the 11.11 sale to 14 Nov. Two new-user train coupons we hadn’t carried (3% China, 5% Japan) are in the finder now, and the Super Brand Day hotel offers ending 14 Nov are in Ending soon. The invite banner still shows the S$68 Welcome Pack. Its terms showed our disclosure had the referrer reward wrong: 1,000 Trip Coins a friend, not S$20, so that is corrected. The after-sale read on 15 Nov stays booked
- Klook referral tally, read in our own Klook account in Chrome. 0 successful referrals, S$0.00 earned, unchanged. The account’s referral page gives the reward as S$5 for the friend and S$5 for us, while the public invite page says US$5. The Klook and ShopBack pages now show both and count S$5; the first real sign-up through EF4BUK settles which currency Klook pays in
- Business loans: Maybank SME Working Capital Loan and Business Term Loan, read by hand in a browser. Both Maybank pages loaded properly again (on 10 November they showed an error from Maybank’s own site). Nothing we quote changed: the SME Working Capital Loan still lends up to S$500,000 over up to 5 years with no collateral, for firms at least 30% locally owned with group sales up to S$100 million or up to 200 staff, and still gives no rate or fee figure. The Business Term Loan still lends up to S$500,000 over up to 5 years to firms at least 2 years old and 30% locally owned, with no rate or fee stated. With these two, every source in the register has been re-read this week
- Singlife Account: base returns, bands, minimum, bonus conditions. Our daily check caught Singlife’s page at 10:36 saying the 1% Booster Bonus and 0.5% Top-up Bonus “will cease on 16 December 2026”. By the afternoon the page was back to the old wording (bonuses run until Singlife updates them; accurate as of October 2025), and both campaign terms still give no end date. We can’t confirm the end date, so the page is unchanged. It doesn’t count either bonus in any rate, and the 1.5% and 1% base returns, the S$100,000 cap and the S$100 minimum are unchanged. Booked another read for 18 Nov
- Trip.com’s Singapore promo list. Trip.com moved its 11.11 sale to the top of the page and dated the page 10 November. The sale still runs 11 to 14 November, which is the end date we already show, and none of the codes or offers we list changed. The full re-read after the sale stays booked for 15 Nov
- Business loans: weekly hand read of the lender, EFS and bank-said-no sources (37 of 39). Re-read 37 sources: every EFS page, the lender pages (DBS, UOB, OCBC in a browser, Standard Chartered, HSBC, CIMB, RHB, Hong Leong Finance, Funding Societies, GXS, MariBank, ANEXT, ETHOZ, GB Helios, IFS Capital and its rates page, Sing Investments & Finance), both Credit Bureau Singapore pages, CEFA, the Police advisory, the Ministry of Law guide and the Moneylenders Act. Nothing we quote changed: RHB still offers up to S$500,000 over up to five years for firms at least 30% locally owned, and the CBS report is still S$8.00 before GST, free within 30 days of a bank’s letter. RHB and CBS were read in the afternoon, once our connection to them worked. Both Maybank pages still show a page error from Maybank’s own site in place of the loan details, so they keep their 3 Nov reading and are booked for another try on 11 Nov
- LangChain docs: tool integrations. Re-read the docs page after an automatic alert: GraciousQuotes and GreenCalculusToolkit are both still in the Python tools table, with their packages langchain-graciousquotes and langchain-greencalculus. The only change was the site’s own configuration code, so the company page stays as it is
- Chocolate Finance: follow-up questions (fund count, Allfunds’ role). Chocolate answered by email on 6 Nov 2026: the FAQ now lists all six S$ funds (re-read 8 Nov 2026), and ChocFin’s custody relationship is with Allfunds Singapore Branch, which contracts with each fund house’s custodian (LionGlobal funds with HSBC Trustee). Page updated, marked as told to us by email. Chocolate asked us not to show its assets figure, as it changes daily; the page never showed it
- OCBC promotion terms. Re-read: S$999,999 online and S$5,000,000 branch caps unchanged
- Savings Bond and T-bill rules. MAS pages re-read, no change to the rules we show. MAS’s T-bill page now has a 3-Month tab with no open auctions, while its text still speaks of 6-month and 1-year bills
- OCBC US dollar fixed deposit page. Old address now goes to OCBC’s fixed deposit page, link updated, US$5,000 minimum. RHB’s part of this check was not read, so the row stays due
- RHB US dollar fixed deposit promotion. Re-read: RHB’s promotion page opens and shows its rates. We link to it and don’t show them, so nothing on our page changed. With OCBC’s part read earlier today, this week’s check is done
- UOB promotion terms. All three promotions re-read for 1 to 30 November (terms dated 30 and 31 Oct). Every term we quote is unchanged, and the page now cites the new date. Next check when the promotions end on 30 Nov
- DBS PayNow to PromptPay fee wording. DBS dropped “for a limited time only”. Our page already quotes the new S$0 wording, and the S$10 minimum and S$1,000 daily cap read the same
- Chocolate Finance: questions sent to the company. Chocolate answered by email: today’s rates began 1 Nov 2026, the S$ fund shares, each fund has its own custodian, and 30 June 2027 applies to US$ too. All added to the page, marked as told to us by email
- US dollar deposit terms quoted on the US dollar fixed deposit page. Re-read on each bank’s own page (DBS and UOB in a browser): DBS’s S$5,000-equivalent minimum, UOB’s US$5,000 minimum and “An early withdrawal fee may be imposed.”, ICBC’s US$500 e-banking and US$20,000 counter minimums and 1% charge on foreign currency cash, HSBC’s US$30,000 of fresh funds and Standard Chartered’s premature upliftment wording are all unchanged. Standard Chartered’s new promotion (from 3 November) ends on 11 November, which the page already shows from our twice-daily read. The check now watches UOB’s page rather than our own, which changes every day
- COE bidding dates for 2027. LTA has not published its 2027 bidding schedule yet (our daily COE read also checked this morning). The page still shows 2026 rounds only
- Cash to declare leaving Indonesia (Bea Cukai KEP-185/BC/2022). Bea Cukai’s file was re-read: Rp 100,000,000 or more (or the foreign currency equivalent) must still be declared, and rupiah cash of that much still needs a Bank Indonesia permit. No change; the file’s embedded image had changed, not its text
- MAS exchange rates page: Indian rupee, Japanese yen and Chinese renminbi boxes. MAS's page is back from maintenance and opened in a browser: the Indian rupee, Japanese yen and Chinese renminbi are all in its list of rates given per 100 units. Our hourly job now takes the main rate from MAS for all three (2 Nov: 74.1180 rupees, 123.4416 yen and 5.1975 yuan per S$, each within 0.13% of the ECB's figure), so these one-off checks are closed and the job's daily check takes over
- Stamp duty deadlines (IRAS when to pay page). IRAS added a notice: myTax Portal is down from 22 December 2026, 12am, to 29 December 2026, 8am, and stamping and stamp duty payments due between 22 and 28 December 2026 are moved to 5 January 2027 automatically. The 14-day and 30-day rules, penalties and CPF wording are unchanged. The calculator’s “pay by” date (and the ABSD page’s refund timeline) now gives 5 January 2027 for those dates, and the page says why
- Maybank time deposit promotions. Re-checked on Maybank's promotion page and both terms PDFs: no change (Deposits Bundle 2.25% for 9 months and 2.40% for 12 months, effective 2.05% and 2.19%; time deposit promotion 2.10%, 1.90% and 2.10% for 6, 9 and 12 months, from S$20,000)
- RHB and Sing Investments & Finance fixed deposit rates. RHB's promotion page opened in a browser: 1.60%, 2.00% and 2.10% for 3, 6 and 12 months (Premier 1.70%, 2.10% and 2.20%), from S$20,000. We link to it rather than list it, as its page still can't be read automatically. SIF's website didn't load, so its rates are still not checked
When a check finds a change, the page is updated the same day and the change is listed on What’s new, or on Corrections if we had it wrong.
