Hi Fay,
Yes that’s correct; you’ll earn next to no interest that month if you do make a withdrawal.
You can review a number of different account options that offer bonus interest without a withdrawal penalty.
Hope this helps!

I am a NAB customer holding different types of accounts and products with them. I’ve been living overseas the last few years, and want to open a reward saver account so i can transfer savings from my existing classic account. I’m not sure why i need to be an Australian resident to apply, when I still have all these existing NAB accounts open. Even if i did earn interest on the account, I would still declare this through my AUS annual tax return, so i find it difficult to understand why i can’t open the account while i’m living abroad.

Hi John,
The maximum amount you can deposit into the NAB Reward Saver Account is $49,999. The account does have conditions to meet for you to earn the bonus interest including making no withdrawals each month and at least 1 deposit throughout the month.
Thanks
