Mozo Review ME frank Credit Card Review
Last updated: 18 October 2018.
What's hot:
11.99% p.a. purchase and cash advance rate
No annual fee
Up to 55 days interest free
Multiple Mozo Experts Choice Award winner
What's not:
$10 late payment fee
Mozo snapshot:
If you're after a credit card with no hidden catches then we'd like to introduce you to frank, the low rate card from ME, the bank. Everything about frank is black and white, from the low 11.99% interest rate for both purchases and cash advances, to the 55 day interest free period and its $0 annual fee. It's also a multiple 2018 Mozo Experts Choice Award winner for best No Annual Fee Credit Card and best Low Rate Travel Credit Card.
Key features:
frank is just the sort of guy you want to carry around with you on a shopping spree. He's got a very generous 55 interest free days (as long as you pay your balance off in full by the payment date) and even if you do occasionally overspend and can't pay back purchases in full by month's end, the low 11.99% p.a. interest rate will mean that you're not putting all of your repayments towards interest.
While you'll also only be charged 11.99% p.a. on cash advances, there is an additional cash advance fee of $4 or 2% of the cash advance rate which ever is greater. And while frank is generous with interest free days on purchases, be aware that with any cash advance you will start paying interest immediately.frank comes chip enabled and so when you're out shopping in Australia you can Tap & Go with MasterCard payPass for purchases under $100. Frank also comes with good online security via MasterCard’s SecureCode and Zero Liability protection for extra peace of mind.
You can take frank with you overseas but keep in mind that any overseas purchases made in person or online will incur a 2.3% international transaction fee of the Australian dollar amount.frank doesn't like tardiness so if you are late or miss with a payment you will be hit with a $10 late payment fee. This can be easily avoided if you set up automatic repayments.
Who it's good for:
frank won't cost you a cent to keep in your wallet so he is ideal for shoppers looking for a no frills credit card for everyday spending.
Any catches?
If frank gets lost or stolen, there is a $20 emergency replacement card fee to have it couriered in Australia and a whopping $100 fee if you’re overseas.
Like all credit cards, the 55 day interest free period only applies if you pay your balance in full by the due date each month.

I dislike the interest rates, although they are very competitive they could certainly be reduced further. The app does not have all the options to do internet banking - not easy to navigate. I think that the website is a lot worse than the app. However overall - I am very satisfied with the customer service of ME bank and have found their rates to be very competitive.

ME are really great. Lowest credit card interest rate around and fees are also very low. Online banking is super easy and the staff, if you ever need to call, are exemplary in customer service.

Something dodgy going on here. I have a great credit history, plenty of cashflow, very small mortgage and was flat out declined. They refused to explain. Was just trying to avoid annual fees for a low spend credit card used for internet shopping. I suspect they are not interested in anyone who will pay off their balance each month. I'll stick with the big banks thanks and pay a small fee.
