      Heritage bank was a credit union and continues to show personal attention and a caring attitude. Their call centre staff are always helpful, clear and easy to understand and being based in Australia there are no language barriers. I have a home loan and connected savings account and have received the same service levels on both. Heritage are also quick to pass on interest rate reductions, which is a huge help. The only real issue is that they do not have nation-wide branches so if I need to withdraw large sums it takes a few days to arrange it with a sister institution. Otherwise they have solved this problem and I can have free withdrawals at Westpac and other ATMs.

      As a sole parent it was hard to find any bank that would have faith in my ability to be able to manage a mortgage and so it is a real treat to have Heritage treat me as any other customer. The flexibility of this product has given me the financial backup required to assist my boys in there various stages of growing up. Any request has been dealt with in a 24 hr turn around with no probs & follow up phone calls to check all requests are taken care of. Prompt personalised service with a helpful 'can do' attitude---wish more were like them!!!

      Even though we're paying a bit more on our interest rate, we did lock in for 5 years, but they are the only bank that would allow us to make multiple, any amount payments against our loan in any given year, where all other banks would limit the amount of overpayment you made. And redrawing is a breeze - you can download the form of their internet and its $20 - too easy. The staff are nice and the manager who lent us the money was excellent to deal with.

      Heritage listened to what we wanted and worked with us to achieve it. The staff were incredibly helpful and we felt supported through the entire process. I appreciated the phone calls and emails that informed us of what we needed to do at each step then follow up confirmation that each step was completed. It felt like truly personal service. The first mail we received at our new address was a congratulations card signed by the Heritage team. We have used Heritage to finance our two most recent homes and do all our banking with them and I would recommend them to anyone. They genuinely do take the anxiety out of the biggest purchase you are ever going to make.
