BankWest

BankWest is the bank best known for its Happy Banking initiative, which aims to make banking a more positive experience. Originally from Western Australia, BankWest has attracted thousands of customers around the country with its competitively priced products such as the TeleNet Saver account.

In late 2008 the bank was bought by the Commonwealth Bank, who have promised to retain the BankWest brand. So if you like the sound of Happy Banking, check out BankWest’s range of personal banking products including savings accounts, bank accounts, credit cards, home loans and more.

Having been a Loyal customer to them for many years, they give Absolutely nothing back. We changed our home loan and I am in the process of looking for another Bank that will look after their customers by offering Service and Loyalty benefits. I dislike being treated like a number when its our money that keeps them going. – Marilyn from Western Australia, a BankWest credit card customer.   Reviewed 7 days ago
