Car Loan and overall satisfaction

published

Had a very positive experience obtaining our car loan through AMB especially dealing with the Digital loans officer, Kensel. He was very pleasant, most helpful and extremely professional. The rate we received for the loan is better than most other providers so well done AMB! We are loyal AMB members having our Mortgage through them (variable interest rate is very competitive) and do all our general banking through them. The only hurdle is that the nearest Branch is approx 8 hrs away, but we overcome that by banking any cheques through the NAB 15kms away.

Excellent Customer Service / P Loan Application

published

Phoned to enquire about personal loan. Was given clear and concise information including what is needed in application process and how outcomes decisions are made (ie. good credit rating = low interest rates ect). Armed with all the information I applied online which was simple and easy process.
My circumstances were unique and AMB took time to find out all the details required and I feel they listened and understood my needs and were able to offer a loan that was fit for purpose.
Process took about a week (during Xmas and NY break) but overall I am very satisfied with the experience and would not hesitate to apply for other loans with this bank if / when needed.

Excellent service and staff

published

When other banks discriminated against us The Military Bank never hesitated in providing the opportunity to organise a mortgage. At all times and in a number of situations where we required financial assistance the staff were professional, helpful and courteous. The staff in the ACT and later in Albatross Naval base have been nothing short of exceptional. I believe that having to go to a military establishment is a small price to pay when ALL service requires some payment in time. Both my wife and myself unreservedly recommend The Military Bank to anyone requiring a financial institute . Jeanette & Ken Murphy

AMB for a car loan

published

Spoke with Fazila to get a car loan and she was extremely helpful and worked with us to finance our new car. Australian Military Bank made the whole process easy and it was always easy to directly get in touch with Fazila who was handling our loan. I would recommend them for a car loan and we are considering moving our banking to Australian military bank.

Don't do it

published

If you are after customer service and good rates, do not apply. Every time I have dealt with this bank it is on their time. They won't even let me get a payout figure without me jumping through all the hoops and this is even after charging me over 2 percent over the standard variable rate that other banks provide. Because there is no local branch I cannot even go to complain to someone in person. When I call the person I want to speak to is not available and will not call you back.

App is rubbish.

published

Every time I TRY to use the app there always seems to be some sort of issue, or the "Bank server is down"!!! This is extremely frustrating, especially on pay days when I try to pay bills ect.

I have banked with them for 20+ years and have watched the slow demise of it, they have not started with the times at all. If I want tied to the bank with a mortgage I would change banks in a heartbeat.

Amber's Excellent Help and Service

published

We would not still be members of The Australian Military Bank if it wasn't for the exceptional service, help and understanding, that Amber has given us. Nothing has ever been a problem or to hard for her to do. She has listened to all our concerns we had when they change the Website 12 months ago and were having so many problems using the Website. She help us when we paid off our loan and when I have had trouble printing off information. Amber helped us close account and open new ones. I have been able to e-mail her if I had any question no matter how silly. She is a real credit the the Australian Military Bank. Thank You Amber for all you have done it has been greatly appreciated.

Tonia from AMB Rockingham, WA

published

Our family was helped by Tonia from the Rockingham branch with a DHOAS scheme loan. She was such a lovely professional to work with. She assisted throughout and actioned everything in such a timely manner. To top it all off she is such a warm person and made us really feel like she cared about our family. We've had a couple of home loans thus far with different banks and Tonia and AMB have been the best experience to date. Thanks heaps Tonia!!!!!

Excellent Customer Service

published

I have never had to much of a problem with Australian Military Bank, and if I did, they were right there to help sort out the problem quickly and efficiently. I just wish the phone app allowed you to log into multiple accounts instead of just one. I can access any account via the website at any time, but the app is faster to log into. I have banked with AMB for 15 or so years now but wish there were more banks located outside of RAAF Base's for easier banking access, not just the major cities where travel takes a long time to get to.

Useless app which your forced to use

published

The app is hopeless as it’s not particularly user friendly to navigate and the bank has started to drop auto payments regularly. They no longer seem to let you bank through the website (instead forcing you to download the sub standard app) which actually worked and was simple to navigate (especially if you have to review pages of transactions ect and don’t want to run everything through an app). Very frustrating experience with this bank the last year after banking with them for over 15 years. The drops in auto payments without notice has caused me quite a lot of unpleasant conversations and then repeated work to set them back up.

Loan was pushed through in a very timely manner. The loan was very transparent and the customer service was outstanding. I was very impressed with how I was kept informed with how the loan application was proceeding.

When will Apple Pay be made available? If keeping customers are important, than this needs to be fixed I’d have thought.

Profits more important than people

published

Very disappointed that this Bank increased its variable rate recently. Now they are not passing on the RBA interest rate cut to customers with a LVR higher that 80% as they know we are 'trapped'due to LMI.
Furthermore the internet banking app is always freezing and difficult to navigate. Will be refinancing with another Bank.

Frustrating experience

published

Apllied to REFINANCE our home loan early November last year. It’s taken six months of dialogue and numerous emails, too many to remember. Not only has it been the worst experience but also the most convoluted process we have ever had with a financial institution. Had to jump through more hoops to refinance than when we applied for our original home loan through another financial institutions!! Finally, yesterday we dealt with someone new, who actually went out of their way, to finalise our documentation and follow up our concerns about the lengthy process, which should have taken about 4 weeks not 26. Thank you John for your great customer service.

Magpies2012asked

Why are you closing branches at bases? I work at Laverton, i wanted to cash a cheque and had to send it through the mail and then have to wait further for it to clear. Cant get cash out, have to go into the suburbs to find a atm. Also my daughter lost her debit card and had no way of getting cash out because the branch is closed, not good customer service. Maybe you arrange something with Def bank so we can withdraw money through them. I might as well change to them and take my three housing loans with them. I think the credit unions have lost sight of their origins and are trying to make money just like all the other banks, there are way to many charges

Hey Magpies2012, we'd hate to see you leave. The Australian Military Bank Branch at Laverton has been closed for over 12 months. Apologies for the inconvenience caused. We'd like to discuss your banking situation with you; could you please contact a team member on 1300 13 23 28? Regards ^BD
