I was served by a man…read more A man in a perfectly pressed and tailored suit. A man with gold rings on each of his fingers. A man named Ashok.. But Ashok was more than a man - he was a street fighter superhero by night and in the day time he pretends to be an innocent and simple banker. You're not fooling me, Ashok. You are too cool looking to be a normal dude. But even as a banker you are doing your job as a superhero saving people and shit - after all, you saved me from a lot of customer service trouble, lack of ATMs, and poor website interface from none other than Westpac. You introduced me to the glory that is Commonwealth Bank. Easy netbank transfers, some of the best and friendliest phone conversations I've had with anyone INCLUDING my mates, and a system that almost seems truly dedicated to the customer. This review is to Ashok. *Raises glass*

Im putting a Star only because this app wouldn't allow me to post without clicking a star…read more Coming to this Accountant was a waste of time & money. Firstly I chose him because he claims to be sited in the CBD which's close to my work, I discovered later on this is not true he visits the CBD once a week and does all his work from home. Secondly, he have no patients to listen properly & explain things. Thirdly he's not trust worthy, I paid him $500 initially for his services & consultation and to be honest, he only started an application to amend the ABN details & spent 1 hour of consultation. So he is either over charging for his services or trying get away with what I paid him. Also, last phone conversation with him he started swearing on the phone & being aggressive which only shows how unprofessional & unethical he is!

Her wisdom and advice has always been insightful and much more than one would expect. Four years ago my husband became very unwell resulting in him passing away in 2015. Antionette over that very difficult time had clear instructions on when and what I needed to instruct our accountant and bank to do and what I needed to do to navigate my childrens education. Infact I can say she held me together with the most beautiful intent and care. Her advice and diligence have resulted in us being able to stay in our family home and our son to remain at his school. My gratitude for Antionette's advice and guidance is to say the least is immense. I can without any hesitation recommend their services.

NOTES: ~ This is the ONLY Commonwealth Bank in the CBD that…read moreopens on Saturday (10 AM - 2 PM) After nagging my boyfriend to join Commonwealth instead of NAB due to Commonwealth's prolific amount of ATMs and great customer service, he finally caved and we walked in to open up an account because he needed one by Monday and this was the only bank with weekend trading. At first glance, you realise that this bank caters mainly to Asians - most of the staff are Asian, which probably helps a lot of immigrants out because they're a bilingual branch. However, no need to fear if you only speak English because the bankers here, although of Asian descent, speak English 100% fluently so there is no language barrier on all fronts. We were served by a personal banker named Justin, who was very nice, efficient, and overall did a fantastic job. He cracked a few jokes here and there and made our experience of "going to the bank" not a tedious errand. --- The only downside is because this is only bank in the CBD that does weekend trading and probably one of the very few that has bilingual services, it is extremely crowded. The teller line was enormous and stretched to the far end of the bank. Thankfully, the wait for a personal banker took only a few minutes, but if you're here to deposit money you might consider this to not be a very quick errand.
