    Good new but hope they'll go up 7.5% like Bank West honey moon period.

    Yes but weren't they 7,15% before the rate rise of .25%, so my math would make that 7.40%.

    And then the rate rise before that was from 7.05 to 7.15% so in effect they skipped a .25% rise

    Not nice…..

      thats an interesting observation.

      i only joined rabobank because of the $100 deal. having said that, i am quite happy with what they have to offer. heaps better than where my money was previously parked - commbank!

  • Horizon on 04/03/2008 - 23:08

    BankWest @ 7.5% for the last week or two is a much better deal, especially as it will probably go up again after today's RBA interest rate rise.

    Try a bit harder RaboBank!

    • scotty on 04/03/2008 - 23:17

      Again, BankWest's 7.5% is the honeymoon rate, and for some of us who have already parked their money at BankWest for over 1 year, RaboPlus offers a better rate.

      And according to a friend of mine who worked for RaboBank, they are trying very hard :)

        Good point.

        We've just opened a BW a/c so still have a year to run.

        I expect 2008 to unfold as a very interesting year, with lots of twists & turns, and continuing competition and upward pressure on interest rates.

  • HueyData on 05/03/2008 - 07:48

    Is this the highest (non-honeymoon rate) saver in town? ING is starting to look dated (6.65%!).

    Anyone here with RaboPlus?

    • SomeGuyOnOzB on 05/03/2008 - 11:10

      ING is looking very dated.
      Even my ANZ Online Saver, and that's a big 4 bank, is now paying 7.25%.

      But I also bank with Raboplus, so they get the majority of my savings for now.

      • Bargain4U on 05/03/2008 - 17:00

        Don't you mean 6.75%?

        • SomeGuyOnOzB on 06/03/2008 - 10:22

          Just checked the INGdirect.com.au and for the savings account it definitely says

          High variable interest rate of 6.65%pa (as at 18/2/08)

          6.75% is the 30 day term deposit

          • Bargain4U on 06/03/2008 - 17:09

            @SomeGuyOnOzB: Sorry, I meant the ANZ Online Saver is 6.75%.

            • SomeGuyOnOzB on 06/03/2008 - 21:34

              @Bargain4U: Hi Bargain4U,

              did you check the account details today?

              Log on, in the left menu, 3rd option Cheque/Savings, select your saver and click on View account details.

              I checked the day the RBA raised the rate and mine is 7.25%
              Just checked again and it still is.

  • onetom2010 on 05/03/2008 - 11:28

    MemberEquity offers 7.5% interest. the best deal so far.

    • dansor on 05/03/2008 - 11:51

      I have to say I love BankWest. Everytime they pass the full amount of interest rate increase to their depositors. when RBA increases by .25%, Bankwest follows…

      BankWest has moved quickly to pass on the RBA's official cash rate, lifting the introductory rate on its TeleNet Saver by 25 basis points to 7.75 per cent and its ongoing rate to 7.25 per cent. Determined to retain its market leading position on deposit rates, the bank has increased the rate on its Regular Saver account by 100 basis points to 9.0 per cent. The Head of Products and Strategy at BankWest, Selina Duncalf, said that the bank is focussed on acquiring customers through competitive products and that its competitive lead on deposit rates would be maintained.

    If they offer me some $$$ I'll sign up! :) Damn I wish that $100 deal would pop up again.
