Best Bank Deals?
 
Hi Guys,

Looking for some latest info ...

Need a new bank account for our Little Athletics group.

Would like minimal charges, no credit requirement but biggest wishlist item is electronic signatories, perhaps by two people?? Westpac do a token system which would be good so I'm going to ring them first.

Any other ideas? Been looking at each of the banks but not many state the details on signatories :sneaky:

ANZ and Commonwealth do the token system as well.

Thanks Punk. Commonwealth don't appear to do a "community group" account, ie no fees so I think it'll be Westpac or ANZ.

My daughter's rowing squad as a community account through Commonwealth but it may have been an older account that is grandfathered in.

We changed to Bank of QLD - they use a token, We found they were the only bank here that had staff who knew what they were talking about, with owner/managers.

Sorry if this is too late but....NAB do free banking and I'm told that they do the two signatory thing. :)

Thanks Asprilla but Westpac beat that anyway if you go direct, no penalties for withdrawing etc
