Been a member since 2023 and never had any issues. Transferred money to a third party institution account and got blocked due to fraud. Told them… Read more

there was no fraud. They carried on an investigation and interrogated me like a criminal. It's my money I do whatever I want. Not only that I had to waste my time calling them to follow up and for 2 days I could not move my money. What a joke. Shame on you QCB. I'm leaving and never come back. Please learn from my mistake to not wasting time with these clowns.

reviews I went to Auswide Bank to enquire about their accounts, & the ladies on the counter were very friendly. Tanya Robb, a customer banking specialist, was amazingly knowledgeable & understanding, listened to what I needed, & helped me open new accounts with great confidence in Auswide's service. Highly recommended.

Amazing service as usual! I started my loan process in the hopes of getting everything to fall in place to collect my car the following weekend. The… Read more

team made it happen.

Clear communication. Fast response times (sometimes outside of regular work hours when I wasn't expecting a response until the morning) and even taught me how to use app features to make the process as easy as possible.

It made the process of planning to get a car fun, instead of stressful, and the level of service is honestly why I have stayed with The Mutual Bank ever since I joined them more than a decade ago.

They do not 'exist to financially empower people to realise their dreams' nor do they back the teachers and nurses they claim to support. I can name… Read more

plenty of banks that take less interest money from customers, which is objectively more supportive than anything Bank First can offer.

I've been with Bank First for about 10 years and have been waiting for a competitive interest rate. I even called them recently and was told that their mortgage team could offer better rates than the website but it turned out to be not nearly a good enough rate to compete with other banks honestly. They have lower/no fees and waive LMI fees, but these are small amounts compared to the what they're making with their high interest rate.

Seems like they are comparing themselves against the big 4 rather than smaller and realistically comparable banks.

bot detection systems,but the fact is the bank staff themselves wanna know every little thing about your life while U not allowed to know anything about theirs then they deliberately lock you out of your NetBank online banking without warning and wanna know about your personal life and who you talk to the fact is that their phone lines and internet and waiting times are repulsive and cringe and just everything about this bank leaves a yucky taste in my mouth so yeah I advise you to stay from this bank and take your business elsewhere! People should start boycotting this bank and get them closed down like what happened to Bankwest

Joining MOVE Bank has been a nightmare. Days after opening an account and transferring my savings, my funds were completely frozen without any… Read more

warning or clear explanation.

The way this bank handles support is unacceptable. I have been bounced back and forth between Live Chat and phone support, with neither team willing or able to give me straight answers. Live Chat ignored my messages during normal business hours for an entire day, only to send a single unhelpful automated message at 3:40 AM while I was asleep, followed by radio silence again.

Being made to feel like a suspicious actor simply for opening a new bank account is deeply distressing. Being locked out of my own money has caused severe hardship, and I have now been forced to escalate this entire matter to the Australian Financial Complaints Authority (AFCA) just to access my own funds.

Avoid this bank if you expect transparent communication or reliable access to your money.

Opened an account (no problem doing that). Surprised to have 2 accounts—High interest savings a/c & Premium saver. After introductory interest offer… Read more

was over I moved money to Premium Saver. Requirement to transfer $200 in to a/c but if you move interest out of a/c you have to increase balance by interest amount PLUS $200. E.g Earned $100 interest, move out then have to pay in to a/c $200 PLUS $100. This means in effect you cant draw your interest money out!!! Not clear at all in t&cs. I just lost my premium bonus interest!!! Not happy at all. Customer service was pleasant but I’m closing my a/cs to other online banks where conditions are clearer. (I have worked for years in finance)

they said that department I required was busy and it would take six days for them to get back to me, it was a fairly straightforward request. Other banks offer better interest rates now. When I started with this bank 15 years ago it was great, now it's dreadful. Don't do it to yourself.

monthly Bankwest Credit card payment from my Savings account, to only have bankwest drawout the full 24month payment taken out through Direct Debit, cos the guy who set up my direct debit had listed payement of my outstanding amount (which is the full 24months installment reflected in my payment). If left unresolved further, i will have ended up paying them their inital 3% balance transfer fee along with the annual account fee for nothing!

useless talking that has nothing to do with the enquiry. I get the feeling these new staff, as maquarie used to be good, are trained this way just to make you feel seperate from them. Not a mature bone in any of the custom service team. I withdrew 2k to my other bank and was blocked from my bank. So I rang them and they asked what the 2 g was for. I told them I was transferring money to another bank account IN MY NAME. But she kept asking what it was for and a bun h of other question which were all answered. I eventually had to make a story that I'm buying toilet paper, just to prove a point. Three hours later a 3 phone calls and no information at all. Just immature staff bantering about anything that doesn't make sense. Just banter.

Ongoing unresolved issue despite multiple calls and follow-ups I’m very dissatisfied with the way this issue has been handled. My $50 promotional… Read more

cashback is still unresolved, even though I have contacted support multiple times through the app, by email, and by phone. I have called several times, and my most recent call this week left me on hold for more than one hour without any resolution. I also have the call record screenshot to support this. The main problem is no longer just the missing $50 — it is the ongoing lack of ownership, follow-up and clear communication. I am still waiting for someone to properly investigate the issue, confirm what has happened, and provide a definite outcome. I expect this matter to be properly escalated and resolved as soon as possible.
