“We are sorry for the inconvenience caused and appreciate your patience and understanding.”
Outage tracking site Downdetector showed 17 user reports as of 11.04pm. Reports had earlier peaked at 56 at 8.49pm.
CNA has contacted DBS for more information about the disruption, including the cause and the number of customers affected.
On Mar 19, DBS’ digital services were hit by a lunchtime outage that left customers unable to log in to their online banking platforms for several hours in the day.
In response to a parliamentary question on the outage, Deputy Prime Minister Gan Kim Yong said that investigations into the disruption revealed that an “erroneous step” when performing a system change was the cause.
He also said that the Monetary Authority of Singapore would follow up with DBS to “strengthen its change management process”.
