Got a suprise to find out my hard earned savings are now at a measly 2.9% after it was previously the best rate before the bonus interest expired.
I figure a there are plenty of others Ozbargainers out there ready to jump ship immediately. So now on the look out for a comparable high interest savings account.
Has anyone switched already and can share any good deals you considered?
Best high interest account now ME Bank bonus % is up?

USaver base rate Ultra Bonus rate* Total rate
3.31% p.a. 1.06% p.a. 4.37% p.a.Nice one, thanks!
Looks even better being a high interest transaction account it has more features than just an online saver. Probably should retitle the post to Best high interest account with funds at call.
pick an online account with a high-interest introductory period and switch to it.
I recently left ME Bank too as my bonus % expired, and ended up going with Bankwest at 4.3% for the next six months.
BW dropped to 4.09 % now.
thanks for bringing that to our attention!
Oh bro, I just realised…thanks.
But disappointed :(
ME Bank 4.6% also finished for me. I'm back to Rams now. 4.11% when you deposit >200/month. Not the highest, but it saves me from jumping around and making new accounts, etc.
if you work well with your partner on money, just like i did use my name for 5months then use partner name for another 5months on mebank.works well with us now
Ubank Ultra linked to the usaver- deposit $2k a month from an external source :)
see whirlpool…
