Our verdict

Link up to 9 sub-accounts to your Everyday Options Account to help you manage your budget and different expenses.

This is an everyday transaction account with no monthly account keeping fees. You can use your Visa Debit Card to make free ATM withdrawals at all Suncorp, Westpac, NAB, ANZ and CBA ATMs in Australia, and you can also link it to Apple Pay, Google Pay. If you’re planning to use the card overseas, there's also no international transaction fee and no ATM withdrawal fee by Suncorp (the ATM operator fees may still apply though).

What’s most unique about this account is that you can link up to 9 mini sub-accounts which don't charge any account fees. This means you can put some of your money in different sub-accounts to help you budget, for example having different sub-accounts for different bills and expenses. You’re not penalised for moving money out of the sub-accounts either, so you can set up direct debits for recurring bills.

Pros

  • No account keeping fees
  • Link up to 9 sub-accounts
  • Use the sub-accounts to help you save for individual goals
  • Make contactless purchases with Google Pay and Apple Pay

Hello Rossatti,


Sorry for the late reply. Please contact Bank of Melbourne directly with any card-specific enquiries. Finder does not actually issue the credit card and you’ll get a much better answer from the bank.

Hi Shyama, No, even if you go into a branch, it usually takes 5-7 business days to process and send your card out to you. If you go into the branch you can access personalised customer service and get your account up and running swiftly. You should be able to start using the account (ie transferring money in or out) as soon as it is set up, although keep in mind, some banks enforce a 24-hour delay when transacting with a newly-opened account.


Hope this helps!

Hi Roberto,

You can withdraw cash from the debit card. It all depends on the super market and if they allow for it.


Thanks

My Father-in-law has arrived from South Africa, he will be living in Australia with us for 12 months or 24 months if he wants to. He’d like an account with a card to use online and do money transfers to and from South Africa. Is this suitable for him? He only has a South African Driver’s Licence and Passport.

Hi Kathy,


We won’t be able to provide personalised recommendations.


Based on the ID requirements found here (https://www.suncorp.com.au/content/dam/suncorp/bank/documents/personal/help-and-support/acc-opening-and-application-requirements.pdf) from the Suncorp website, he should be able to open an account with the drivers licence and passport.


We also have a dedicated page on which accounts non Australian residents can open here https://www.finder.com.au/bank-accounts/foreigners-open-a-bank-account-in-australia .


Thanks

Raj
