ABOUT THE PRODUCT
A Holiday Coast Great Day Deeming Account is an on-call transaction account, designed to not only comply with legislated deeming rules, but to exceed the minimum requirements resulting in an account that pays a higher rate of interest on your on-call funds, a bonus 0.25%pa interest on eligible Holiday Coast Fixed Term Deposits and a generous fee structure.
ELIGIBILITY
A Holiday Coast Great Day Deeming Account is available for new and existing members receiving an eligible pension or who are a self-funded retiree over the age of 55. Members must qualify to receive a Pension under the Government’s Social Security Deeming Provision, and have their Pension electronically credited to this account.
The deeming rules are a central part of the Centrelink income test, used to assess income from financial investments for social security and Veterans' Affairs pension/allowance purposes. Deeming assumes financial investments earn a certain rate of income, regardless of the amount of income they actually earn. If pensioners earn more than these rates, the extra income is not assessed.
INTEREST RATE
Interest is calculated daily and paid monthly. The calculation is based on the balance within each tier. The Great Day Deeming Account pays in excess of the Government Deeming Rate. View current Savings Interest Rates. View current Fixed Term Deposit Interest Rates.
ONGOING ACCOUNT KEEPING FEE & TRANSACTION FEES
All deposits, Internet Banking, Phone Banking and Electronic Bill Payments are free and there are no account keeping fees with your Great Day Deeming Account. Other transaction fees may apply. View current Fees & Charges and Access Limits.
When comparing, don't just look at interest rates but consider any fees you might have to pay that will add to the 'total cost'.
