I have been an ING customer for a few years now. When I first joined I was offered $100 as an incentive. I think their home loan interest rates are usually higher than the big 4 banks but their deposit accounts, their savings maximiser is good you get a higher interest rate than anywhere else but it is a one off whereas with some of the big 4 banks you can get the higher deposit interest rate as long as you open a new acccount. ING's term deposits' interest rates are usually better than the big 4 banks and they give you 10% bonus interest if you renew the principal and interest upon maturity. Their customer service is generally quite good. Only downside is that they don't have any physical branches which can be very inconvenient.

I like ING too - I think their approach has brought about a bit of a change in the market with other banks now having to reduce fees to compete.

Online Banking pretty much as you would expect. I can't see how anyone could rate online banking as 5-star sensational.

No significant issues but we are talking about an online bank where interactions are a little limited. I get me statement in the mail. They answer the phone when I have a query - Good solid service as expected but certainly no WOW factor.

If you have a look at their everyday transaction account its the best available in the market. With no fee's , 3 days to fix your account if you accidentally overdraw your account, they pay you 50c when you withdraw $200+ from a supermarket etc + 5% off all paywave transactions till june 2013! if you can find me a better deal, please let me know. but frankly I havent found a better transaction account in australia

used to be with ing direct and love the interest rate for the deposit but now my bank has the netsaver and it is much more convenience so unfortunately i closed my ing account as it take one or two days to transfer the money. even Ing now offer normal account with the card so you can access to it straight away. overall they do have a bit higher intrest rate than any other banks.

No bank fees, no ATM fees for withdrawal of $200 and more. No overdrawn fee. Love the service.

However, it is a bit hard when you want the bank to issue a cheque because they don't have a branch. You have to call and they will send you the cheque. And when you want to deposit large sum amount of money, the only option is to go to the Post Office and the security is not as good as banks.

But other than that, great service (friendly customer representative)

We have been ING customers for a while now, it's great have not had any bad service. Their customer service dept is fantastic, they will go the extra mile, never a long wait when calling through and question emails always answered.

They always keep you updated with what's going on in the banking world

We are very happy, wish there was a actual ING bank.

I have been an ING Direct customer for years ever since they first launched their savings maximiser account. Their website is easy to use and their products are great. I like their terms deposits also. Every time I ring up for extra assistance, the staff are helpful and have extensive product knowledge. I would happy look at other products of ING Direct and would recommend to anybody wanting a better deal with their banking.

I recently joined ING Direct to take advantage of their high savings rate and so far I'm very happy with my decision. I've had to call up customer service a few times to activate accounts, ask questions, and they've always been friendly and efficient. The only slight downside, and when I say slight I mean tiny downside is that it's an online only bank, so you won't find branches anywhere. Other than that, ING Direct is a fantastic bank with amazing interest rates.

I was searching for another bank and one that was not going to charge me oodles in fees and I get nothing in return, well I saw an ad on TV for ING and thought heck why not give it a go. So I went online signed up for an account which is a Savings Maximiser and now I am on my way to having a good savings plan and I also get interest which shows up at the end of the month. And being an online account I can transfer into my other bank account if I need extra funds but the good thing is that being a mainly online account I cant go into a branch to withdraw small amounts.

To Celebrate the Introduction of their Pay Wave Facility, Ing Direct are offering their existing Orange Everyday Customers and the first 30,000 New Customers

5% off all their Pay Wave transactions untill 30 June 2013!

That means every time you spend up to $99.99 and use the Pay Wave facility Ing Direct will refund you 5% of the total transaction straight back into your orange everyday account.

This is one of my favorite accounts and this offer is purely a bonus!

I have previously done a review on the Orange everyday account which you can view here. I have also provided a spreadsheet of other fee free bank accounts and what they offer so you can see the differences.

http://www.kylieloves.com.au/banking/5-off-pay-wave-transactions

Some features of this account.

No monthly account keeping fee

No min opening or ongoing balace

No transactional fees*

No charges for withdrawing money via eftpos

50cents everytime you withdraw $200 or more using eftpos

Withdraw $200 or more at any ATM and they will refund the ATM operators fee.

if you accidentally overdraw your account you have 3 days to deposit more money into your account without any penalties* (once per month only)

FAVOURITE EVERYDAY TRANSACTION ACCOUNT!

Good info, for sure. Doesn't seem like a review though.
