Our verdict
Australian concession card holders can take advantage of a low cost, easy-to-manage account structured purposely to meet their needs
This account has all the same features and benefits of the BankSA Complete Freedom Account, except there’s no monthly account keeping fee and no ongoing balance requirements or deposit conditions to meet.
There are strict eligibility requirements, though, so this account isn’t available to all customers. To be eligible for this account you need to be a concession card holder with a senior’s card or a Commonwealth Government Health Concession Card.
If you’re a full-time student, you'll get the monthly account fee waived with the BankSA Complete Freedom Account.
