      • they had a rep on here 3 weeks ago, made some promises, then vanished in a puff of smoke. lol

        • +4

          What annoys me is that the rep (Scott) still logs in, you can tell from his profile. That just makes me trust this bank even less. Will be recommending to my friends to avoid them.

    • I do agree. I think this is going to end up with everyone having to call them after the 30 days is up.

      • I sent a message through internet banking a couple of days ago and am yet to hear anything.

  • +2

    30 days, as expected no money!

    I'll call them tomorrow.

    • So…? Any news?

  • +2

    I don't see the reasoning behind spending $400,000 on a promotion to gain 2000 new customers when all the 2000 new customers are going to be sketchy of this bank before they even start properly using it. It completely defeatd the purpose of the promo entirely. Why spend $400000 to bring in 2000 weary customers because of the lack of communication and updates?

    • +1

      Maybe because you count on them not following it up and just sticking with the banking out of passivity. You would be surprised the things people tolerate out of passivity and fear of change/unknown. As one buddhist teacher said, people cling on known suffering rather than try something new out of habit and fear of unknown.

  • So today I finally got a reply that the reason why I havent been getting the cashback was that I had been previously a customer. That was ages ago, I cant even remember the year, and I was advised by the previous customer advisers on the phone that I was eligible, however not. Just a time waster. So anyone who has ever had account with Me, don`t waste time applying again, even if it was 5 years ago…

    • +3

      The T&Cs did state that the 5% cashback is "Available if you open your first EveryDay Transaction Account (ETA) between 3/03/14 and 30/07/15."

      • Thanks, then I have the grounds to complain, as I just checked my emails and I had an account in 2012.
        Did the terms and conditions also state I would be eligible for $100 if I have not been a customer in that period? Thanks.

        • +2

          Thanks, then I have the grounds to complain

          Umm no you don't…

          Available if you open your first EveryDay Transaction Account (ETA) between 3/03/14 and 30/07/15.

          You just said it's not your first…

          @Spackbace:

          You are right. Thanks.

  • +2

    Just called them. They told me my 30 days are technically going to be complete tomorrow, as it takes 2-3 days for the bank to be charged when using a card.

    According to the guy I talked to, I should receive the money automatically on Monday. If not, I'll have to call again and they'll be able to put it in.

  • Please if you're calling MEBank to get your $100, please also mention to them to credit the referrer the $100 as well.

    Got mine too!!! 6 friends = $600 for me :)

    Thanks meBank! <3

  • Hi all, I checked my account and now have my $100. Spackbace was correct. I will keep my account open with MEBank as they came through in the end.

    • Yep, will also be keeping mine for the future. Cheers ME Bank!

  • Received mine !! :D $300 woot! :D

  • Wow! Got my $100 too! Awesome!! Thanks ME Bank!!

    • Was it 30 days since your third paypass transaction?
      Had you ever held an everyday transaction account previously?

      • +1

        It was 30 days to the day, and no I had never held an me bank account before. Also, my referrer received $100 on the same day. Already spent the cash on PS4 games :s

  • I haven't received my $100 although I still have quite a few days to go since my 3rd transaction? Or is it because one of transactions wasn't paypass (online) as I didnt read in the terms and conditions that it had to be paypass.

    Will wait a few days before I give them a call, is anyone in the same boat?

  • +1

    Received my referral bonuses. Good work ME Bank!

  • +2

    ME Bank pulled through! My wife and I both received our $100 so we'll be keeping our accounts. Perhaps in the future, we'll get to be the referrers :).

  • After much doubt the cash came through. Thanks OP and ME Bank! Will be keeping the card now and finding some usage for it.

    • I like the 5% rebate…

      • It's better than nothing.

  • Did anyone receive more than $600 referral credit? I had referred 10 friends and all my friends got their $100 but I only received $600. It is a little bit dodgy.

    • +5

      can confirm that i received the max of $1000 as a referer of 10

      • Thanks. Will give mebank a call this afternoon.

    • Same I referred more than 6 and also got $600 only which is weird. Let me know what they say when you call.

      • +2

        ME Bank won't tell you anything.. they'll just say some of the people you referred wouldn't have met the criteria (3x $10+ payments within 30 days of the account opening etc). Annoyingly they won't check for you to see which people you referred hadn't managed to do that.

        I referred 5 people. Only got the money for 3. Can't complain - very happy with that, but it was disappointing after expecting 5. Called ME, they didn't help, so I ended up messaging the people I referred. Turns out one person didn't transfer any money into their ETA account and didn't make any purchases (they didn't realise there was a time limit for the promo..). Still haven't heard back from one other person. Presumably the same thing happened there.

        Ah well. You'd think and trust OzBargainers would be on top of things for free cash like that, but nope lol. >_<

          Easiest $300 earnt though amiright? ;) Unless there's another side to you Turnip…

          @Spackbace:

          Unless there's another side to you Turnip…

          I wish. It ain't so easy when you're a purply bulbous root vegetable with a face :(

        • @waterlogged turnip:

          Depends what part of town you hang around…!

        • I reffed 10, caught up with all 10 and 8 said they did it, 2 said they didn't, so it should've been $800. Still an easy $600 though, grateful for the promotion, it was one of OzBargains finest.

  • +1

    Wow just checked :) Got 4 referrals through out of 5. Can't be too unhappy with that.

  • -2

    Got the credit (1x$100). Thanks Mebank. No one used my referral codes though. Maybe next time ;-)

    I can't complain though since I got about 2 x $50 in the last promo.

    edit: I wonder how much money Mebank had to shell out for this.

  • Tough seeing all you guys getting $$$

    I logged in to ME online and raised a complaint by email. Was told my referrer did not satisfy the conditions.
    I used one of the idiots who posted their referral code, but opened after the qualifying date.

    Anyway, don't need another account, so will be closing.

    In the meantime opened ING for $75, no dramas with them.

  • So annoyed. ME bank opened up 2 accounts on the same day for me and the card I was given was linked to the account that was opened "later". Therefore I didn't qualify for the $100 because they have strict rules that the transactions must come out of the first account…what the! I don't understand why ME bank opened 2 accounts in the first place as a first time customer. The customer service rep said that their computer sometimes opens two accounts by mistake - that's not my problem. They said my feedback would be noted and that they couldn't do anything else for me. Not good enough ME bank.

    • +1

      Called back and they resolved it. First customer rep just didn't know what was going on. $100 in the account. Problem solved. Happy :)

  • My last qualifying transaction was 3 July. Right now I still don't have $100. However when I called up, the CSR said that the referrer also needs to do 3 qualifying transaction for both of us to qualify for the $100 cash.

    Is this right?

    The problem is that I have no idea which link I clicked (somewhere in Ozbargain) so I have no idea who to chase with ….

    • No, that's not right, however without knowing who's link you clicked you have no way of knowing when they originally signed up :/
