A woman with a cheeky sense of humour and a point to prove walked into an OCBC Bank branch in Marine Parade and asked for a birthday cake, because the bank's commercial show the staff throwing a surprise birthday party for a customer.

The staff told her that she had mistaken the intent of the commercial and that she had taken too literally the advertisement demonstrating the personalised service of the bank.

But the woman persisted and left only after a manager bought her a 7.6cm cake from a nearby shop.
