I was switching to that Up Bank (by Bendigo), but they straight refuse to let me fund my crypto account, so that's out because I just want basic control of my own money.

I also have a Bank Australia account, but, while they like to pat themselves on the back about sustainability, their service and product is crap, imo.

So what else you got?

As someone that’s been with them for almost 3 years, this is actually really encouraging to hear. Crypto exchanges fail often, and the exchange rate is usually volatile. I’m glad I get to keep my high savings rate because they don’t take risks. To each their own though!

I just dont see how its a risk for them to ask 'are you sure?' and I say 'yes, thanks, I'm an adult'. Risk averted.
