Better than the UBANK 6.05% (with 0.20% loyalty bonus).
Good depending on whether you can be bothered transferring to and fro. Let's hope UBANK raises their IR or I may jump ship soon :)
Hi xxx,
As a new Orange Everyday customer, you know you’ll keep more of your money because we’ll never charge you any ING DIRECT everyday fees.
But we’d like to make you feel even better about saving. Open an ING DIRECT Savings Maximiser now and you’ll receive a variable welcome rate currently 6.25% p.a. That’s 1.35% p.a. over the standard variable rate, currently 4.90% p.a. for the first 4 months. Plus, you’ll have instant transfers between your ING DIRECT accounts, 24/7 when your Savings Maximiser is linked to your Orange Everyday.
Open a Savings Maximiser today and feel even better about your money. But hurry, this offer is only available until 31 May 2010.
Best of all, since you’ve already been to Australia Post to have your identity verified, you can open your account online in minutes.
Regards,
Brett Morgan
Executive Director, Savings
mod - added that it looks like it's only for the opening of new accounts of this type. It looks like it is not available for customers who already have an account of this type
I signed up a week ago with the CH9 promotion code (bonus $20), and now my interest rate is 6.25% as well. Excellent, forget BankWest now! :p
