try2bhelpful on ubank: From 01 Oct 2025, Save Account Balance Must Grow to Earn Bonus Interest

Yeah but only 0.25% after the first 4 months and only on balances under $250k (yes I'm over currently) and with extra hoops to jump through.

They've been saying they're going to disable it for a long time now. Works fine on Firefox.

The accountant also said not to register for GST which will make claiming GST rather difficult.

Remember to check the camels to ensure the sale price is actually a saving

This is how I read it and that's definitely not how it works OP. You can't claim the GST on something you didn't buy just because you're…

There's been several good brands already recommended in this thread then. Side cutters aren't exactly complex so the brand doesn't matter…

imaxsameer on How Much Is You Comprehensive Car Insurance Yearly Premium as Percentage of Your Car's Value?

It was $46k at ~$60/m.

I've worked for a supplier to Bunnings, believe me, they pass on all costs.
