This financial institution is all about fees. I made a mistake and did a balance transfer. I have been hit with fees that are not really justified.… Read more

As part of the promotion, I was offered no annual fee for the first year, they charged me an annual fee

No balance transfer fee. They charged me that too. Then when I made repayment, they charged me a fee for making a repayment, crazy! AFCA needs to look into their dodgy operation.

28° Latitude Amazon refunded me $201.99 into my closed 28° account on the 16th September. I called Amazon three separate times, as 28° kept telling… Read more

me the payment hadn’t been made - EVERY time I call their first response is the money hasn’t been paid, even though when they start digging into my file they find the payment. I have called 28° at least three more times than the following, from here I started taking notes: - 9th October - Spoke with manager and gave my new BSB and Account details to be paid into. Still not paid. - 20th October - will call back; no call back. - 24th October - Spoke to [Name Removed]; to email back office “high importance” and call back in 5/10 business days.

I do not recommend this product, and I actually think they’re trying to wear me out to steal my money. Beware.

Syid the loans manager is useless and shouldn't even have a job there. Called him back twice after he said to call back we called back twice and… Read more

didn't called back. Other person made note on his profile to called back first thing the next day still didn't called till the afternoon after we have called again twice. Then he said he was doing the contract and would be there on that day. Low and hold it wasn't and again chasing him. Then came monday still chasing him. They increase service fee for what the trash service they supply cant even do a job properly. Useless person.0 star for this knob

cancelled my application out of frustration. I have used latitude products in the past and had a good opinion of the organisation, that is now gone.

I used to have a GO Mastercard for probably 15 years. The last purchase I had on my $2000 limit was a new phone. I made the payments on time and… Read more

paid it out having a nil balance owing. There was always a small admin fee each month previously being charged.

Then one day I had a reminder notice sent to me.

When I questioned this I was informed that Latitude had implemented a $10.95 fee each month whether you had anything owing or like me, a nil balance. There ended up being 3 months worth of fees totalling $32.85.

I complained and they removed the fees and I closed my account.

Recently I found that my credit file was affected by this and showed I had two months where I hadn't paid. I now need to dispute this listing on my file.

To be honest you'd probably be better using another payment option that did charge interest as it would work out cheaper than using this 'no interest' account.

theough the link they SMS. You can then add to wallet and use the card straight away. Balance transfer promo was easy to activate and processed quickly. Payment via direct debit takes 3 days to clear and a fee for bpay is the only downside.

Pickpockets. I cleared an outstanding balance of $58.50 and was charged: PAPER HANDLING FEE $1.95 ONLINE PAYMENT HANDLING FEE $10.95 PAPER… Read more

STATEMENT FEE $5.00 INTEREST $0.84 (*despite paying the $58.50 immediately upon receipt.

Latitude is a scammer charging exorbitant interest and fees which could only be translated into usury - there is no corresponding interest rate capable of being calculated. Consequently they burn their return customers who cost them nothing in admin and seek out new customers who drive the business into a spiral of poor returns. PICKPOCKETS

Easy enough to get a loan but then problems. The payments they suggest are the BARE minimum and are almost HALVED by interest charges and monthly… Read more

account fees!! (Eg. Pay $300/month -$13 admin - $135 interest fee) Extra payments made over several consecutive weeks, not showing up on statements which means my amount owing wasn’t correct and interest being charged was also incorrect! Customer service was nice enough, could only provide ‘current’ statement via email to be received in 24hrs.
