So they have aknowledged that the conversation regarding the 90 day term and rate took place ??
I agree banks are bunch of thief, but why do you care so much if it is your EX's money?
hahaha thickdead....hahah..obviously he still cares:
If you're wanting to get in the queue for the ex Mrs Burns just remember that my selection criteria are not quiet as restrictive as yours.
I note from page 1 of this thread that you have his name.Havent heard back yet but the guy I spoke to says he cant remember as far back as June.
I can see I'm going to have to add an additional selection criteria about being self made and or at least about having sufficient respect for the stuff.I made it and I've always looked after the money side of things so I have to keep doing it, if she loses it she's not getting any more.
I note from page 1 of this thread that you have his name.
Ideally he will respond promptly with a positive outcome but I have my doubts as that mat result in him being in the poo. One can initially be inclined to be forgetful under such circumstanses.
But you'll still do business with them ?NAB & TELSTRA not my favourites at the moment !
Nearly finished commercial property on 30 day Market Rate Facility. Got new rate at 8.73% variable ...... *cough cough* ...... Complained like a stuck pig then got rate at 6.84% variable. Asked WHY the high rate to begin with. Excuse was high rate was due to "in course of construction" entitlement. Oh ... the $2,000 application fee was a beauty as well. New facility .... no ongoing fees or application. LVR at 51% as well. Hmmmmmmmmm !! Over $7,000 in interest saved per annum but took 2 months negotiation and lotsa meetings to FINALLY win the battle.NAB & TELSTRA not my favourites at the moment !
I hate the NAB. Absolutely. I was a loyal customer for nearly two decades, they held my very first bank account, gave me my first cheque book, first ATM card... first sh**ty service...
They do annoying things that a lot of banks used to do, like offer a fee-free account, later on they apply a fee to it, which feels like being scammed, really.
For a while with NAB, whenever I went to deposit cash, and they would put it through as a cheque deposit - meaning my CASH wouldn't clear for a week, and i wouldn't have access to it, wouldn't earn interest on it, couldn't write cheques against it, etc etc... I got fees charged against me for writing a cheque against it before my CASH deposit cleared!!
They did it several times, too. I ended up having to sort of stand over the teller each time i made a deposit, scrutinize every single transaction - can't tell you how annoying that is, not to mention time-wasting.
The other thing i hate about them, was when I went in to ask about a reduced credit card rate because i'd been with them for years etc etc, they said no, (i had a few cards with them) so i asked about a loan to conslidate the cards, they said no, can't take out loan of that size because of my current credit cards, i need to pay them off before i can apply for a loan - wtf? So when i don't need it, then i can have it?
So i go in a few weeks later and pay off a card and close it. Go in the next week, pay off a card and close it - they ask me if i want to keep the account open but with reduced 'special' interest rates for loyal customers. hello? So I laugh and say no. I go in a few weeks later, close another card - same offer, even lower rate. mongrels. i said no every time, closed them all, closed my transaction accounts, everything, and went elsewhere. By the end they were offering all bells and whistles - trying to talk me out of closing my accounts, saying it was "because i'd been such a loyal customer for so many years."
I knew a girl that worked for them for a while, and she said that in their training notes they were told that the customer is always wrong - and that if something happens that might look like the bank did something wrong, the customer is still wrong, it is the customer's fault and they have evidently been "misusing the services."I hope that isn't true, but it sounds believable.
i've never gone back, never will. I won't even buy shares in the company.
You're lucky they did not tell you to POFF. Commercial property is not flavour of the month at the moment. Banks are very very cautious about more property exposure. Bubbles always burst in the end............
I always thought I'd never contribute another character to a Mr Burns thread but here I am typing another contribution. And Mr.Burns is "supposedly" from Melbourne, what a narrow-minded hateful wasteland that must be (if you compare it to the context and language usage of his posts), must not attract too many property investors wanting to settle there if his posts are anything to go by.Does a blogger like this scare away investors in the markets?
Who knows? Hmmmm
Have they now refused to cancel it ?Well, I got my $35 fee reimbursed but they still kept my $500 overdraft credit.
