        Bendigo Bank needs to get it's act together and make more branches/ ATM's. They also need to make more competitive fees. I'm only with this bank because I am too lazy to transfer all my stuff over to another bank.       Full review

        I was recommended by a family member to bank with ING. I then have recommended ING to all my family and friends as I have a lot of success saving money, paying bills and using their direct debit card. Very competetive interest rates. I have also needed bank cheques, which I have organised over their security internet site without any trouble what so ever!! I love their Mobile App, which is so easy to use and use anytime. Love the fact I don't have to worry about which ATM to use and get rebated when withdrawing my pay out each fortnight...Love ING DIRECT!!!

    Debit card information

    • If you’re looking for an alternative to credit cards, there's no need to look any further than a debit card. Debit cards provide all the convenience of a credit card but none of the debt. Unlike credit cards where you ‘borrow' money from the bank at a set interest rate, debit cards allow you to use your own money, so that you can use what you have in your bank account. Compared to an EFTPOS card, debit cards give you access to your own money when you travel overseas.

      Debit cards are available from major Australian banks, regional banks and credit unions. On Mozo you can also check out debit card reviews from real customers, to see which debit cards Australians are rating as the best.

    • Types of Debit Cards

      There are two types of debit cards on the market in Australia; Visa Debit Card or Mastercard Debit Card. Both the Visa Debit and Mastercard Debit have the same benefits and features, the real differences between them lie on a provider level (i.e. the banks). Choosing a card, comes down to what your bank provides and what special offers are attached to the different card. Compare the best debit cards online with Mozo.

    • Credit vs Debit cards

      When comparing credit cards against debit cards, it comes down to a personal choice on whether you want to accumulate debt or want to spend what money you have in your account. Debit cards allow you to do everything a credit card would without the associated risk of falling into debt. There is also no credit rating risk associated with a debit card. However credit cards do have a benefit in accessing funds that aren't in your account and some allow you to receive reward points at numerous locations.
