    It is not clear what to do to earn the bonus interest on the easy saving account. In other words what do I have to do different between earning 2% on this account and earning 3%?

      Hi John,

      Thank you for your inquiry.

      As of this writing, this Easy Street Easy Savings has an introductory rate of 3.00% p.a. (maximum variable rate) that includes a 1.00% p.a. bonus in addition to the standard variable rate of 2.00% p.a. There’s no condition in order this maximum variable rate to be met. It is available (only) for the first 6 months from opening the Easy Savings Account and on all balances.

      Please note though that this offer commenced on 1 August 2017 and is available on our Easy Savings Account for new accounts and new deposits only. The introductory rate offer can change or be withdrawn at any time and will end on 31 October 2017. After 6 months, the standard variable rate applies.

      Hope this helps.

      Cheers,
      May
