    The 30+ outbound transactions each month kills it for me. This is a new requirement that was recently added.

      I hate this shite…

      Play the game..setup 30 x 1 cent auto transactions to yourself. But why??

      Just leave CBA and never need to worry about it. Convinced me this bank isnt for me.

      Anyone stil offering a few thousand $$ to charge me interest for the next few years.

      • How do you setup 30 x 1 cent auto transactions to yourself exactly?

        • Chose re occurring. Send it from CBA to another account you have/ water bill etc etc

          • @tunzafun001: That's from a transaction account (debit card) or credit card. Not a bank transfer or BPay I believe so I don't see how to automate that unless you own a POS system

            • @Enelass: "Complete 30+ outbound transactions each month from your eligible transaction account or credit card."

              • @tunzafun001: Yes precisely, "eligible transaction"
                Only way I've found is using Sniip recurrent pay but you'll pay a small fee (0.65% for debit card, and min $5 per TX), so 30x ($5 + fee) = $151 / month
                or MSF / Borderless Doctors Fos instance accept recurring $2 card payments, it's tax deductible, + makes a difference… or 30x $2 = $60 - Tax deduction + Karma Points

                Transferring to another account for which you're the owner is not considered eligible transaction.
                Also you can't schedule debit card payment of 1cts to any recipient, or if you do, please let me know.

                • @Enelass: Hmm..pay off a partners credit card 30 x 1c ? No idea of the BPay minimum.

                  My advice would be make a complaint regarding the T&Cs of this. When someone eventually calls back, ask them straight up the easiest way to complete this 'game' they have. Ie. 1C x 30 transactions.

                  You will find the complaints handlers also hate CBA's stupid ideas and will help you find a super easy way..or in my case they just gave me back the full package fee straight up to save me the hassel..

    $4 a month cashback for overcharging interest! Awesome deal!

    • $4 is for paying low interest on Saving account.. !

    • +1

      It's just a little something to thank you for doubling their profits

  • +4

    Yeah Cashback is laughable however there are a stack of other benefits and most likely more will come.
    I'm eligible for 50% off Binge and Uber One for 6 months. YMMV.

    • 36 months of free Internet with More was nice

  • I never received this $4 even though I am eligible..!

  • Been with CommBank for home insurance for 9 years with zero claim history. Last month's renewal they increased the premium $550 (45% increase). They gave me reason "inflation". Such a pathetic company!

    • 550 ? What's your insurance amount ?

      • +2

        … they increased the premium $550 (45% increase).

        $550 / 45% = $1,222 premium prior increase / renewal

        $1,222 + $550 = New premium amount

    • Your first mistake was probably going with a bank for insurance.
      Bank prices are almost always going to be more expensive that any insurance specific company.

      • CBA was the cheapest for 9 years in my case.

    • It's probably not inflation of the premium directly, but inflation in reconstruction costs. The cost of construction tradies and materials has been ridiculous in the last couple of years.

      I'm not defending CBA because I have no knowledge off your particular case. However, I recently switched home insurers because the amount that nrma increased the sum insured meant it was no longer likely to cover the cost of rebuilding if the worst happens (ie they didn't increase my premium by enough).

      An extra $1000 now hurts, but not as much as being $100k underinsured if there's a fire/flood/earthquake etc.

  • Had it for a few months already but they have only just included the Uber One and Binge discounts which is a bonus.

  • This is long running?? I only just found this, this week… anyway, I'm not gonna whinge at $14 a month cashback for doing nothing other than normal spending.

  • +5

    WOW

    $4 monthly cashback on your Home Loan Package

    my interest is like $3,300 monthly

    • not to mention the $400-500 annual fee for the wealth package

  • +5

    Not sure why there are so many people complaining?
    Talk with your feet. If you aren't getting a deal your satisfied with, why are you stil with CBA?
    There are plenty of other banks out there that will happily take your money.

    • and you are aware that after the interest rate hike which has lowered some people's borrowing capacity so they simply have no choice and can't move to other banks ?

      • +2

        Should have thought about serviceability before overextending themselves then I suppose.

        • they were fine before the interest rate hikes

          • +1

            @OzComment: I'm still surprised that so many people haven't budgeted for most, if not all, of the rate rises so far. Rates during corona were at historic lows and were only likely to go in one direction.
            The 200-300 bps requirement set by apra was a minimum for a bank to consider lending, not a benchmark for people to work out what they could afford. Anyone who budgeted for the potential of 400 -600bp increases from the record lows should still have enough buffer to switch.

            • @CacheHunter: Anyone who budgeted for the potential of 400 -600bp increases from the record lows should still have enough buffer to switch.

              You are wasted not being the successor of Philip Lowe!

  • Woo.
    Looking forward to my $4 cashback per month :/

  • Just got my $4 Today!

  • Might be a good idea to look closely at the terms and conditions of “Yello”. Do you think they are giving this out of their own profits and the goodness of their hearts? I don’t think so! Looks to me that they are selling your personal information to third parties in order to fund this. Do you want your personal information to third parties for a bit of cash back? I guess that’s something everyone has to decide for themselves. I think it’s a disgrace that seem to me to have auto enrolled their customers into the sale of their personal information. I had to really dig to find the information, and even then I don’t know what information of mine they may have provided to third parties already. Hard pass for me.
