Thanks for your feedback, it is most appreciated. We will look into Humble Bundles and PayPal. Please let me know if you have any other feedback! Happy Holidays!
You should probably look into UPlay as well. That would probably push me over the edge on a few purchases.
Nintendo eShop would be nice as well.
Thanks both, I will look and get back to you.
Hi sss333. Thanks to your feedback we have now included Nintendo eShop purchases into the cash back offer.
We have also extended the offer for another six months. The offer will now end on 30 September 2017.
@towncharger1: Oh wow, thanks, will look into this now.
Warning: worst experience ever. Haven't received card after applying two months ago. Not one error, many, many stuff ups.
Hi Andrew, Sorry to hear bout this. Please PM me if you would like me to look into what happened in more detail.
Thank you, but it's now apparently in the mail to my home after being randomly sent to a branch. It's been four days, but assume it's just the Christmas mail crunch
I have a single card linked to both my complete freedom and amplify card. How do I pay online and select the savings account? It always comes out of the credit account.
I will get back to you on this, as soon as I found out an answer.
What about Origin? (https://www.origin.com/aus/en-us/) EA games' platform for buying games
Origin is included, as per the message above.
so its only for visa's not mastercards?
Yes only Visa Debit Cards.
Any international fees? Since Steam doesn't charge in AUD?
Yes there is likely to be standard foreign currency fees.
Are any fees associated with the account? I am not a student.
The Complete Freedom account has a $5 per monthly service fee, however this is waived if you deposit $2,000 per month into the account.
There is also a 3% foreign currency conversion fee.
More information as well as application details can be found at: https://www.bankofmelbourne.com.au/personal/bank-and-save/ba…
Pretty annoying it's been going for 2 and a half months already, but I don't think I've made any big game purchases in that time.
Plus, all my gaming purchases these days seem to be Humble Bundles…and through PayPal.
