Much more involved than previous deal but still a chance for those who missed out on the previous CUA promotion to receive a $100 cashback if they join. 20 Transactions each month but much wider variety of eligible transactions (e.g. NPP payments to friends and family, Direct Debits etc.). First 1000 applicants only! Terms and conditions as follows:

  • Enter the unique promotional code of “EACASH100” in the online application for the CUA Everyday Account: AND

  • Deposit at least $2500 in total into your new Everyday Account per month, in both April and May 2019. ($2500 per month can be made up of multiple deposits); AND

  • Make a total of at least 20 debit transactions* from your new CUA Everyday Account per month, in both April and May 2019; AND

      They are clearly aiming this at people that want to open an account and make it their primary bank account. If youre just looking for a quick $100 then it's probably not the best but also not impossible.

      I closed the Everyday account, but opened an eSaver Extra, which offers 2.9%, if $250 per month is added and no withdrawals are made.

    • JIMB0 on 16/03/2019 - 15:14

      I kept mine and opened up an online savings account as well. Much better rate than ING or ME and no silly requirement to tap your card every week.

      • spaceflight on 16/03/2019 - 16:22
        +4

        Much better rate than ING or ME

        I don't think it is much better, especially with the no withdrawl requirement.

        If you make 1 withdrawl in a year the CUA rate becomes much worse.

        Ubank is 0.03% lower and has no spend or withdrawl requirement. I think that is the better choice.

        If you have $50,000

        • In CUA and make 1 withdrawl you get $1,345.34 interest in a 12 month period
        • In ubank you get $1,454.03 interest for the same period
        • JIMB0 on 16/03/2019 - 18:29

          Well it suits me better as I have no immediate plans to draw the money out. A few times with ME bank I came close to losing the bonus interest due to the stupid weekly card tap.

          Ubank is owned by NAB which are so large that if the government bank guarantee were to come into effect you'd only get cents on the dollar.

          • pistachio on 16/03/2019 - 21:24

            @JIMB0: Isn't up to $250,000 guaranteed?

            • JIMB0 on 16/03/2019 - 21:35
              +1

              @pistachio: $250k per person and $20 billion per institution which would only cover about 5% of the funds on deposit at one of the big 4 banks. This is if the government decide to enact the guarantee in the first place.

              • donamique on 16/03/2019 - 23:16

                @JIMB0: They would have been taken over by APRA and money given back to everyone way before all your savings there was lost…only a small amount of deficiency is allowed before the guarantee kicks in.

        ING's international ATM fee rebate is awesome; with the wife overseas in Thailand recently I was saving almost $10 on every visit to the ATM.

        Any savings just go against the mortgage, so interest rates on savings are of no interest to me.

  • Findmebargain on 16/03/2019 - 13:07

    Can we get referral credits with this deal? The random referral link doesn’t seem to be working.

  • verio on 16/03/2019 - 13:10

    I don't understand the complaints.

    Fast payments are eligible transactions for the purpose of 20 transactions per month. Once a month just transfer $2500, make 20 transactions to any other account (this will take you about 10 minutes), transfer remaining money out.

    Easy $100.

    • Quotationz on 16/03/2019 - 15:02

      Soooo you could do this and get the $100?

      "Your Bank" transfer $2500 to CUA (April)

      CUA transfer $250 - 10 times back to "Your Bank"

      "Your Bank" transfer $2500 to CUA (May)

      CUA transfer $250 - 10 times back to "Your Bank"

      Profit…..

      • chriise on 16/03/2019 - 15:30

        20 times each month, but yes.

    • truetypezk on 16/03/2019 - 15:41

      I'd rather make 20 1c paywave transactions at Coles/Woolies at night. Easier than making transfers on a computer.

      • spaceflight on 16/03/2019 - 16:17
        +4

        How is it easier?

        • Press split payment
        • Enter amount
        • Pay with card
        • Wait
        • Repeat 19 times

        Or you could set up your account to transfer $1 each day and never touch it again for 2 months

        • truetypezk on 16/03/2019 - 16:30

          Yeah that's a great idea. I was thinking of doing 40 transfers manually.

          • spaceflight on 16/03/2019 - 16:32

            @truetypezk: I think you could still do the 40 manual transactions faster than at a checkout.

            • truetypezk on 16/03/2019 - 16:35
              +1

              @spaceflight: Is it? I never really tried speeding multiple transfers, but splitting payment at coles is just:
              1. press split payment
              2. enter 1 (it becomes 1c)
              3. press enter
              4. tap card, wait for abt 2s max as it is an offline payment without doubt.
              If you get familiar with the process it is 5s max/1c. I've done quite a lot of 1c with multiple credit cards offers and find it pretty fast. I think it is faster than clicking mouse and selecting payees n etc. But ur auto transfer idea is epic!

              • spaceflight on 16/03/2019 - 16:42

                @truetypezk: I haven't split payments before, but it seems it would be harder.

                I haven't checked the conditions to see if automatic transfers are allowed, you might want to if you are going to rely on it to get the $100

                • chyawala on 17/03/2019 - 07:28

                  @spaceflight: Remember the deal requires you download and set up the app as well as the rest of the fluffing around.

  • Ninja9 on 16/03/2019 - 13:28

    • JIMB0 on 16/03/2019 - 15:15
      +18

      If it takes you 100 hours to do this I'd say $1/h is about all you're worth.

    • truetypezk on 16/03/2019 - 15:43

      For paywave transactions at supermarkets it takes about 10s/each, 40 trans is about 6-7mins. Transfer in/out 4 times in 2 months is about another 4 mins. Total outlay is about 10 mins for $100, which is $600/hr. If you earn that much then probably you shouldn't be wasting your time on OzB.

      • spaceflight on 16/03/2019 - 17:57

        Or you could set up a daily transfer of $1.
        It took me less than a minute.

        • amsaini15 on 16/03/2019 - 19:51

          Do you mean just daily repeat online transfer of $1 to another bank account?

  • serpserpserp on 16/03/2019 - 15:31

  • peterpeterpumpkin on 16/03/2019 - 16:57

    Back in my day, the CUA app didn't support NPP Fast Payments yet, so I had to use the website. And unless things have changed, you have to wait 24 hrs before the ability to receive via NPP is "activated".

    An extra annoyance in this case is that many/most(?) banks have a $1000 fast payment cap (in my case, ING), so you're either looking at 3 days of transfer work or losing a few cents in interest.

  • andylch on 16/03/2019 - 17:14

    I've previously opened a CUA account, but closed it because the website and app were terrible.
    That said, I joined them in the first place because they're a credit union and not part of the big 4 that rule all.

    With this it looks like they've rejigged themselves a bit, so its worth another try for $100.

    • hazzad on 16/03/2019 - 20:13

      Have to agree. Only been with them for about 1.5 years but they were the only bank willing to give us a loan on an investment. Even Our old bank, Bank Australia where we had managed to pay back our loan in 12 years and had savings with wouldnt touch us. Anyway CUA have been great to us and they offer good products with few fees.

  • freemoneyhunter on 16/03/2019 - 20:22

    CUA is a worthwhile bank to move too. They have a Bonus Saver Account at 2.90%, I recommend the move especially with the $100 deal.

    2. NPP fast payment out 26 x $100 (extra just to be sure)
    3. Now wait for May and repeat steps 1 and 2.

    There is a limit of 5 NPP fast payments from web login but it resets if you log out and back in again.
    No such limit on the CUA app.

  • andylch on 26/06/2019 - 22:41

    Their online banking system doesn't recognise the transaction dates, but use their own settlement date to determine the eligibility for this promotion.

    I made some last purchases on 31/May and now they insist these transactions are not eligible!

    For AMEX or CBA, there are always one date which is the transaction date. How doggy CUA is.

    How can I complain them now?
