Police Credit Union has been my bank for about 15 years now and I am very happy with the service…read moreand products they provide. I more often visit the Modbury Tea Tree Plus branch if I need to go in and the level of service is very good. The bank always performs well on customer service / satisfaction reviews and I certainly have no complaints. I was sick of the big banks and feel that the credit union looks after its members better. And no, you do not have to be in the Police to join.

As the only Bankwest branch in SA, the service is personal. They get to know you a bit and you…read morenever have to wait long. It hasn't really been an inconvenience to only have one branch; if you work, study or live in the CBD, I suspect it wouldn't be an inconvenience for you either. Not for everyone though... -If you're an international student or on a working visa they won't give you a debit card (works like a credit card). Other banks will. -If you ever need to wire money internationally, their system is terrible. It involves a cringe-worthy process of printing, handwriting, visiting the branch, faxing... The iPhone app is magic and web banking is OK too. I've been with Bankwest since the "old days" when the branch was on the fifth floor in an office building on Pirie. They've come along way... taking a lift to see a bank teller was bizarro. For future reference: the Bankwest SWIFT code is BKWAAU6P

Bankwest are generally pretty good, better if you live in WA and generally better than the big…read morebanks (although since being bought by CBA they are starting to slip in customer service)

18/12/2011 I must give love to BankSA Here are three…read morereasons: 1. Before when I was young and naïve about bank accounts, they taught me how wise it is to open up a savings account when I got my first job in high school. That lesson has helped me so much since then, and have ultimate self-control of my personal spending behaviour. They are available 24/7, and one night over the phone, the BankSA employee sneakily taught me that putting more money in your savings account makes you money through interest over time, more than just leaving everything in your credit (spending) account. (Yup. I plan to retire as a millionaire through my savings plans...don't know if it's working so far?) 2. How easy it is to transfer money electronically between your accounts, and now, it's even easier to do it on your mobile phone! 3. How they protected me from a big scam deal that ripped me off several hundreds of dollars over the phone. They have your back, if anything goes wrong, or there has been an incorrect or suspicious transaction in any of your accounts. Yes...you have to make an effort to walk to or drive to an ATM if you need cold hard cash in your hands, which isn't possible over the phone or in front of your comptuer...but I love how the lines are never too long whenever you walk in. But the friendly bankers here are quick - and at 25-years old with no CLUE how to effectively handle money, they are willing to talk to you and provide advice as to what I should to next to solve the problem. For example, I was bankrupt and had trouble paying bills. I already knew the solution, but the fact that they gently encouraged me without being rude at all, hit a home runner for me = "go get a new job, then come back and we talk more!" They even have their own superannuation fund, which is a convenient option for people who enjoy doing their transactions on the internet. How nice.

I went to a BankSA ATM on the wall of Surrey Downs foodland, made a withdraw it gave me a receipt…read moreand NO CASH and the receipt had the deducted amount on my receipt Phoned BankSA HOTLINE and they said can't help you don't bank with us I need to go to my own bank that's a great comfort when the banks don't open until Tuesday (3 days time) than I'll have to wait for them to investigate how long is that ???? So if you need to use an ATM machine don't use that one
