SINGAPORE: Singapore's POSB has launched a comprehensive package to recognise and reward customers for their seniority.
From Oct 28, and every Tuesday thereafter, a dedicated counter will be set up at all POSB branches to extend special privileges to customers aged 50 and above during the first three hours of branch opening.
The special treatment will include snacks and drinks, and accounts tailored for the elderly.
POSB said the "50+ Tuesdays" initiative is part of the bank's effort to enhance overall customer experience.
Mr Davy Wee, managing director of POSB, said: "We appreciate the support of many generations of Singaporeans who have been with POSB through the years."
