Regarding Online Bonus savings accounts (sorry, there is no comment thread on that page)
ANZ don't appear to have passed on the full 75 bp increase to Serious Saver accounts:
- Standard rate 0.3% p.a.
- Premium rate 2.75% p.a.
- Total rate 3.05% p.a.
My previous Total rate was 2.7%
You might wish to check out Rabobank - who to their credit move on the RBNZ OCR moves (or shortly after) rather than wait until the beginning of the next month. To be fair to all they have not passed on the full 75 bps either but they are quicker to respond and closer to market interest rates. Credit rating a notch below that of the major Australian owned banks but still supervised by the RBNZ and all details can be found on the RBNZ's Bank Dashboard https://bankdashboard.rbnz.govt.nz/summary on this link together with all the other banks
Rabo Saver interest rates 3.10%
Rabo Premium Saver (requires account balance lift of $50/month to get the top rate which is currently 3.75%)
