I discovered to my surprise that I'm still getting the rebate even though I've already enjoyed 6+ months of rebate. I didn't reapply or anything. Is this a fortunate accident for me? Naturally I'm not going to complain :)
Edit: Never mind, maths fail, it's 2%. But I didn't deposit $2k per month. Oh well, I'll just enjoy 2%.
Likely you're just getting 2%. Fortunately the re-application hack still works. Just sign up again for a new account, clicking "I am a new customer". Don't even have to close your old one.
I did it only a few weeks ago, and the 5% is alive and well.
You guys are right, I fail maths. It's 2% but no way I put $2k in the account per month. But any freebie is good. :D
Are you sure you haven't got salary or some other automatic payment of at least $2000 going into this or another ING Direct account (or at least did for the month prior to the month is which you got the 2%)?
Definitely not. Salary doesn't go there.
Not sure if this has been mentioned elsewhere, but I see many Aldi in Sydney starting to roll out paywave on their EFTPOS terminals!
There'll probably be an EFTPOS surcharge for that, but that doesn't stop people.
Not when I used it.
where in bris have you noticed them?
Can someone confirm if I close my ING OE & SM accounts, then a few days later, apply again as a new customer. Will I get 5% for 6 months again?
Save me buying $1k worth of Giftcards knowing whether it's worked for others.
It worked for me
But it may have something to do with different ID methods (to be safe)
My first INGDirect was opened with Medicare + DLicense -> Need form, bring to local Auspost to verify.
Second INGDirect was opened with Medicare + DLicense + Passport -> instant activation
This was done on the 09/09/13
Thanks for that. I'll try adding my middle initial etc, which worked for a 2nd free Yatango month. Ode for a third.
That's impossible, it auto reverts back to 2% when the 6month period has ended,
You should double check it, just in case it might be something else!
