I'm probably being really thick but what are 'tranzfers'? We haven't got as far as the Oz bank accounts even though we go beginning of October.

it's a foreign exchange company where you go online and can do the transaction yourself. have a look at www.tranzfers.com

I was also very impressed with Westpac - 24 hours and I had an account number, credit card and internet banking set up! Their migrant banking centre are very helpful and efficient and I have unlimited transactions for $5 a month (excluding non-Westpac ATMs). Highly recommended...

Thanx
I chucked all of mine into an Access account (current account) with ANZ. When I went in to pick my cards up etc, I opened a savings account (can't remember the name of it now) and put most of my money in there. It was opened in about 4 minutes flat! and linked to the EFTPOS card and internet banking. Coulnd't be easier.

Someone else posted their link a few weeks back and I registered using his referral..........so hopefully he's got his ipod by now !!

Only counts when they actually make a transfer though.....worth a try !
