jlien on NAB to End Overseas Access Fee Waivers for Migrated Citi Plus Products

Yeah? Strange that the replaced debit cards and not credit cards. I haven't been required to agree to new conditions.

They didn't take the credit cards

I have no doubt. I got my solar down to $5pm with solar. My last one (before battery was installed) was back to $75 again. The next step is…

Yeah thanks, I did a bit of research this afternoon. Up seems good. Revolut seems a little bit dodgy with fees on weekends/ after hours and…

Does Up use the base MC exchange rate (no profiting from a markup?) I'll start using it too.

Mad Max on NAB to End Overseas Access Fee Waivers for Migrated Citi Plus Products

I asked the same question. It's not like they're just tweaking the conditions. It's closed to new customers, and changed the primary use…

This doesn't show which charge a fee through a marked-up exchange rate. We used to have this information.... I think we need to update that…

What was NAB's intention with buying Citibank's debit card? Do they think we'll all switch to a NAB product after they do this to us??…

oh, I thought we were just talking about a totally unnecessary use of a fossil fuels. I think cruise ships are the least of Venice's…

I sold at $30.96. I'd just got into investing in shares, and my brother was a day trader. He'd give me tips, and if I thought a share was a…

That's what I presumed too

Until you see that drinks are $20 a pop. That's prob one of the benefits of cruising, I drank nothing but water for 9 days.

I was questioning this. With greenies whinging about cows, ICE cars, and everything else, why aren't they protesting cruise ships?

hmmm must have been people who sat in their room and sulked all holiday. Never see these people out enjoying themselves.

The Fairstar was fantastic as a single in the 90s. I notice security is much better now. 20yo me would spend the cruise in the brig for…

I'd be curious whether an ozbargainer would be willing to forgo ozb for 9 days, or spring $25pd for poor wifi.

We met some people who have done dozens of cruises - many European (they are more expensive so presumed they attract a different crowd). I…

I've been a few times. Cruises are great for several particular holidaymakers, but not great for adventurers imo. They are great if you…

why? I would either just consider it an additional charge with rego, or I would look into what it is. It's hard enough getting insurance…

Then I can't see how its confusing.

Yeah. Somebody said it was separated to make cheaper through competition. What a joke. It was separated so you pay 2 smaller bills and…

I know what it is, but I've only ever heard it referred to as CTP. Surely you'd say CTPI if anything?? I can't imagine the trouble people…

I hate banks with excessive security just to view. Mine tend to have minimal security for view, then do additional checks to transact, add…

I'm not sure what your problem is. Is CTP not part of the registration renewal in NSW? In QLD, it used to be part of rego, so couldn't…

Okay, last time I'd going to prod. Yeah, I've lost patience with you for sure. I hate that some idiot is trying to tell people something is…

> I've had an iPhone 11 for years now

They did actually. (And increased daily supply fee.) This is about promoting batteries IMO. I don't know whether there is an intention to…

I've heard of people who've made $$ storing power and selling to the grid at peak.

FIT were high to promote solar uptake, now they're decreasing to promote battery uptake.

And now batteries are becoming affordable, so the grid becomes just a backup. On my latest bill I noticed that not only has FIT decreased…
