Our verdict

Earn 5% p.a. for 4 months with this flexible savings account from NAB.

This account offers a variable rate of 5% p.a. for the first 4 months for balances up to $20,000,000. The good thing about this account is that there are no deposit conditions to meet to earn interest, and you can make withdrawals at any time while still earning interest.

However, after the introductory period ends your interest rate will revert to the standard variable rate of 2% p.a.. This rate is a lot lower than other bonus savings accounts in the market right now, however there are no conditions to meet which might suit you well if you don't want to commit to a monthly deposit.

Pros

  • 5.00% p.a. for 4 months
  • No deposit conditions or withdrawal restrictions
  • $0 account keeping fees
  • Earn bonus interest on large balances up to $20,000,000

Cons

  • Interest rate drops to 2% after the intro period
  • Must link to an NAB everyday account
  • Interest rate is lower than other savings accounts in the market

I took up NAB 4% introductory offer and expected no fees on withdrawals as advertised. This is not true. If I want to move money, I have to move it into the current account and then if the transfer is more than $30,000 I have to pay a $35 fee. How is this free? Was I misinformed by NAB staff?

Hi Gus,

According to NAB’s site and the PSD document there shouldn’t be a fee for making an internal transfer. However, if it’s an international transfer a fee may be charged.

We suggest you get in touch with NAB directly to clarify why this fee would be charged.

Thanks,

Alison

We have just less than $1m from the recent sale of our house but expect to use a large proportion of that witching six months on the purchase of a new house. If we deposit this in a NAB iSaved account, will be receive 3.5% or thereabouts regardless of when we complete a major redraw?

Hi David,


This account currently offers 3.5% p.a. for the first 4 months after opening the account. There are no conditions to meet to earn this (except you need to be a new customer). You can make withdrawals at any time and still earn this rate for the first 4 months.


Thanks,

Alison

Can you advise the cost of transfer of transferring say $50,000.00 to a Singapore bank account with another bank from a NAB savings account.


Can you advise how much for an internet transfer and an over the counter transfer of $50,000.00?

Hi John,


Thank you for getting in touch with Finder.


For this large sum money transfer, it is best that you contact NAB directly for a more accurate info on this matter.


I hope this helps.

After 4 months of iSaver introduction rate, are you able to renew for a further 4 months 2.55% rate?

Hello Ray,


Thank you for your comment.


Please note that the 4-month 2.55% p.a. interest rate is an introductory offer. The interest rate is the total of 0.50% p.a.Standard Variable Rate and 2.05% p.a. Bonus Variable Rate. Unfortunately, the introductory offer of 4 months is not renewable.

Hello Susan,


Thank you for your inquiry.


The current standard variable rate of this product is 1.05% per annum with a bonus of 0.85% for the first 4 months, making it 1.90% per annum as an introductory rate.


You can see other high-interest savings account that you may qualify for. We have a calculator at the top of our comparison table for ease of reference. Once you have chosen a particular account, you may then click on the “Go to site” button to be redirected to the bank’s website where you can proceed with your application or get in touch with their representatives for further assistance.


It is worth reminding to review their account opening requirements and Product Disclosure Statement, prior to application.


Hope this helps.


Cheers,

Jonathan
