399266 2005-10-25 19:28:00 met someone who just arrived in nz
she asked me about which bank to go for
first reply was tell her to use what i use
but she wasn't satisfied with that
so.. went to consumers website to find something to show her
but.. notice how the articles i want to read you have to pay for them..um..

is there some other places with such comparisons?
or personal optinions?

i think she wants the usual sweet deals that doesn't exist together
high interest for your deposits, low bank fee, low transactional fees..etc..
oh.. under 30 or tertiary specials would be nice to note
because she falls into that range

ANZ (Same thing now)
Westpac

Good:
ASB

Kiwibank has low fees.

PSIS does too.

As for others, ASB, for instance don't charge fees if you have $50,000+ with them - that can be either money in total or a mortgage.

399272 2005-10-26 03:18:00 I am with the ASB. You know the situation when your CASH Card doesn't work and you need another one. I just walk in to any Bank branch, show them my old card, show them my D/L and I get a new one on the spot. No waiting, and can use it straight away. KiwiTT_NZ (233)
399273 2005-10-26 03:34:00 I've never had any problems with ANZ... don't know what everyone is on about. pctek, can you enlighten me with a list of things ANZ can't do or suck at. I'm interested.

P.S. I have another account at ASB too

I use National for personal banking with no problems.

Business banking through ASB, recently transferred from BNZ who were causing problems.
