        I thought that as well but it did on the back, towards top right and it's vertical it is tiny.

        Had to take a picture and zoom in to read it.

                @Jimbuscus: To be fair, it's hardly visible and like dj2flood, I had to take a picture and zoom in to actualy read it when I filled out an application for something else that apparently needed it. It doesn't help that mine overlaps with the big birthdate numbers making it harder to make out the tiny print.

      There's two numbers. A license number, and a card number. I didn't even know this but some online verification now requires both.

      If you're in Vic it's a number on the back starting with a letter.

    looks like someone finally turned on the Osko.

    When I tried from StGeorge this morning it was denied and the account is now marked as only taking slow transfers in StGeorge's system/app.

    Just gave a it a try from ING to see if things had changed and it processed on Osko instantly and is showing up in the MyState account…. though no doubt it was the 2501st account to get 50 through

    For those having issues transferring into the account due to some invalid PayID details, if your bank allows you to send to an account at a later date, select that and select 1-2 days in the future which should go through.

    Not good experience at all at starting, like most people here, failed to deposit, lost confidence if still can use it in future, I did same thing to open an account in virgin money last year, very smooth process, I guess the technology in traditionally company like my state bank is not as good as new comers.

    • Jimbuscus on 30/01/2023 - 11:16

    I have had this account for several years and it works fine. Usually, a competitive interest rate often higher than ubank, although not right now. It has OSKO and a $2,500 OSKO daily limit.

  • IrrumaboRex on 30/01/2023 - 10:03

    I was a long time ING customer and decided to go with MyState back in 2021 when ING introduced their extreme conditions for getting bonus interest rates. I did not mind their lower interest rates with the view I would be supporting an Aussie bank. Boy was I wrong.
    They track all your spending like a proper commie state and the worst part was being unable to withdraw more than 10k from bonus saver without sending an email to head office for " approval ". The best part of that was you needed to give "a reason" why you wanted to withdraw your own money !! I missed out on closing a deal because I could not make immediate payment. Absolute bunch of c's to deal with. Back to ING with no ATM fee's, better rates and no hassle to withdraw any amount.

    • Mugsy on 30/01/2023 - 11:21

      If you want least hassle banking, Macquarie has none of these minimum deposit/5 monthly transactions/savings balance must increase each month requirements.

      Current interest rate 3.70% and that's for money in the everyday transaction account too, not just the savings account (though the savings account has a 4 month bonus after opening resulting in a rate of 4.5%).

      They rebate all domestic ATM withdrawals and have no international transaction fees.

      Apart from the lower ongoing interest rate, the other potential issue is lack of EFTPOS support so cannot withdraw cash at the super market, cannot get a direct Medicare reimbursement put on the card, and I think Auspost banking also isn't supported.

      • Gavman on 30/01/2023 - 15:49
        +1

        ubank better. 4.10%

        • Mugsy on 30/01/2023 - 21:50

          It is… not hard to beat 3.7%. But ubank also doesn't rebate all domestic atm withdrawals. For anyone like me who mainly has third party ATMs in the area and frequents establishments that have surcharges on credit/debit card payments, fully rebated ATM withdrawals from ANY domestic ATM is a god send.

          If one is chasing good interest rates, go Virgin Money which is 4.6%… automate a $2k deposit into then out of the Virgin account (or out then back in if that's easier) and also automate 5 bpay transactions per month (can be $1 each into the electricity bill or council rates) and that will sustain the higher interest rate. Much easier than ING.

          • Gavman on 31/01/2023 - 10:52

            @Mugsy: Its 4.30%.. 4.6% (extra 0.3) if you Provide 32 days’ advance notice to unlock your account or withdraw your money.. which IMO isnt worth doing unless those savings will never be touched for any reason usually rare as many people keep 10% in savings before paying rent or other bills which can generate interest in ubank while being able to keep those funds liquid.

  • Jimbuscus on 30/01/2023 - 11:07

  • didelly on 30/01/2023 - 11:55

    Initially I tried to send $50 via ING - invalid number. Tried via commbank which worked. Still no money has appeared and that was sent yesterday. I also had the same issues as those above with the licence number. I just removed the leading 0 from my drivers licence and used that as the card number and it went through!
    edit: bah I just checked commbank and it has bounced back.
    2nd edit: Just did again from ING and worked via Oska immediately. I think their accounts dont really get setup straight away upon creation. Probably has to run through some batch job

  • rehangunna on 30/01/2023 - 17:01

    Really bizarre experience on set up - got my BSB/Acc No as soon as I set up the account so naturally went to transfer in $50 from my BOQ account - noted that it said OSKO not available so payment will go through in a day or two (this was on a Fri or Sat). Got impatient and tried again on Saturday, from the same funding account at BOQ, and went through immediately as an NPP credit?! Original transfer has now also gone through, so my Bonus Saver is reflecting $100, which is good. Fingers crossed the $50 bonus comes through, as I don't really plan on using their Glide account.

  • dinglejerry on 30/01/2023 - 17:47

    Do you need to keep the $50 in there once transferred to get the other $50? I had assumed could be withdrawn straight away but just checking
