Mozo Review Westpac Term Deposit Review
Last updated: 27 September 2019.
What's hot:
Option to have interest paid to another bank
What's not:
31 days notice to withdraw funds
Mozo snapshot:
If you’ve got a decent chunk of change to tuck away for a little while, why not consider the Westpac Term Deposit? With flexibility and a range of terms between 1 month and five years, the Westpac Term Deposit can get you well on your way to hitting your savings goals.
Key features:
Fancy a term deposit with a big bank? Then you might want to check out the Westpac Term Deposit. This term deposit offers a range of terms from as little as 1 month to five years. However, you’ll need a balance of over $5,000 to apply.
While there’s no problem to have your interest paid to another bank, you will need to let Westpac know 31 days in advance if you plan to make a withdrawal, which can be an issue if you need the cash fast.
Another thing to keep in mind is that the Westpac Term Deposit features an automatic rollover, so if you no longer want to keep your term deposit open after it reaches maturity, you will need to let Westpac know.
Who it's good for:
The Westpac Term Deposit could be a great pick for Aussie savers looking to open a term deposit with a big bank who have a minimum deposit of $5,000.
Any catches?
While the Westpac Term Deposit aims to give you the best return on your savings stash during your chosen term, just keep in mind that there is an automatic rollover. So if you no longer want to keep the term deposit open, you’ll need to let Westpac know before the maturity date.

Good customer service and easy to deal with
The staff are courteous and friendly. They will take the time to explain things. When we told them about interest rates at other banks they met them.
