Ave Maria on Saving Accounts with No Growth/Zero Withdrawal Requirements (or with work around)If they drop to 4.30% (which is expected), I really don't see that much going for it.

Ave Maria on Saving Accounts with No Growth/Zero Withdrawal Requirements (or with work around)Don't forget January 1st 2026 is a public holiday as well. So that's 3 consecutive months to watch out for at the beginning of next year.

sghetti on Macquarie Bank Savings Account: 4.50% p.a. Interest on Balance up to $2,000,000 (Was up to $1,000,000)You mean from October not next month.
finbar commented on Up Bank Grow & Flow Savings Account: up to 4.60% p.a. (Must Make 5 Monthly Card Transactions and No Withdrawal) @ Up Bank
RBA will drop rates in August. Will be interesting if it's still offering 4.85% come September.

Charlie Dont Surf on HomeME Savings Account 4.85% p.a. Interest on Balance up to $100,000 ($2,000 Monthly Deposit Required) @ ME Go AppYeah with the RBA rate cut next month it'll shuffle things up again
finbar commented on Macquarie Bank Savings Account: 4.85% p.a Interest First 4 Months on Balance up to $250,000 (Expired: 4.50% pa on Bal up to $1M)

Borg on Kayo Sports Standard or Premium Subscription $1 for 1 Month (for New & Eligible Returning Customers) @ KayoIt's a good question. While technically you would probably owe them money, realistically they won't pursue you for it.
