Judo Bank

Trust is everything, that’s what I appreciate the most it’s like leaving your new born child to be minded for the first time, you need to have trust in that person RIGHT!!

Judo Term Deposits came recommended by an accountant friend. It was easy and clear to choose the length of time and simple to rollover. As an ‘older lady’ living alone that’s quite important - along with the feeling of safety

Whilst these guys seem to offer competetive rates I would srongly advise you to ensure the maturity date of a term deposit account (TDA) does not fall on a non business day. Judo does NOT pay interest over the weekend. I have a TDA which matures shortly on a Saturday. The funds will not be paid out until the following Monday. OK, we are only… Read more

talking about an interest payment of $18.00, however this practice is surely nothing but daylight robbery. I deal with a number of Banks and nobody else has the gall to operate in this manner. Surely Judo has an obligation to ensure that any TDA opened has a maturity date that falls on a day that Judo can effect the paymnet process?

Simple, fast and easy to deal with, better rates than the Big 4 Show details

We had a RBA rate hike and they did not pass it on to the savings accounts. Profits before customers.

Better than most Banks! – Judo Bank is so much better than the standard banks Show details

Great customer service if needed.Best term deposits and easy to open on line. Quick response to application. Have had quite a number over a few years and never had a problem. Show details

Best current rate on a 5 year term deposit and the application process was really straight forward. Account was approved the same evening so I could make my deposit the following day. The money was received the day after and they have a very easy to use app to view my account. They are backed by the $250000 government guarantee which was very important to me being a smaller bank. Show details

My Judo Term deposit (s) have been so easy to set up, change and rollover. I love the way it is produced with all the facts you need to know and with a loyalty roll over increase to boot. I would recommend Judo to anyone who just wants freedom of stress and worry. Set and forget and Judo is breath of fresh air that does not go stale. Absolutely no regrets at all. Love it.

No in-app signup functionality. Website doesn't work as Salesforce SAML SSO fails, so won't be signing up if they can't get the basic front door technology working, it leaves other technology in doubt. Show details

I have been with Judo Bank for 3 years. The monthly interest are always prompt. Although this might suggest a high review score it does not. The system is set up for hackers and scammers to attack clients. There is a reluctance for Judo Bank to… Read more

assist with clients that are subject to criminal activity. How? Simply by not providing an option for clients to get safe throughput of their term deposit. Also, the telephone access is another weakness. Having only one telephone number for contact, it is easy for hackers to transfer calls to a secondary destination. Thus obtaining an illegal contact where all sorts of information can be collected for the hackers to use.

I have a specific experience of these complaints and am currently attempting to ward off a hacker group from stealing my term deposit. How? The hackers control the access to Judo Bank and utilise Judo Bank's reluctance to develop safeguards for clients, thus creating problems for the client to prove they have not received their funds when ending their term deposit. The reality being Judo Bank has become a tacit conspirator of the funds they profess to secure!!

I would suggest looking elsewhere for a term deposit where there is a better interaction between the client and the bank.

I am a loyal customer of Judo Bank for many years. It always vary easy and smooth online platform it provides but safe at the same time. However, today, it totally change my mind, my attitude for Judo Bank. It started some non sense procedure and for my point of view, it is totally unnecessary and non sense! What happened was: for their own reason… Read more

(nobody know why!), they not allowed customer to change their account nickname (I can create it myself when I open the term deposit account). But that's okay because I can send them an message and they will change for me in the past! But now, today, they said I can't! I need to call them to provide more personal details because security reason...ba, ba, ba. Look! How unsafe it will be by just change my own account nickname online? I can still change my TD maturity instruction online by myself! I did it this morning and I don't need to call them for that!! But I need to call them for just change my account nickname!!?? It just doesn't make any sense at all!!

I have established 2 term deposits with Judo and both have been easy to do, I particularly like that this bank has the govt guarantee for up to 250k on deposits which gives me peace of mind that my deposits are safe.

The process to set up a Term Deposit and subsequently roll over the account is simple and easy to follow. The Rates are excellent and comparable to the best rates available. If you need to talk to staff they are polite, knowledgeable and very helpful. I would recommend Judo Bank. Show details

From the first contact with Judo bank the staff have been very helpful and professional aiding me through the initial setup of a Term Deposit account. This is my second TD with Judo bank and see no reason why this will not continue. Show details

Term Deposit funding from Judo Saver Account Now that Judo offers saver accounts it should be easier to fund a Judo Term Deposit from there without the imposed $20K daily limit making it hard to do so. I can accept the transfer will not be instant and go via BECS but having to call and ask to approve and push a transfer for me (still goes via… Read more

BECS) is not something one would expect from a system based on a modern platform. Internal transfers to own accounts with Judo (savers and TDs) should be unrestricted.

Highly recommend Judo Bank. Always available by phone to talk to. Was very easy to open the account online and the rollover bonus makes an already high rate even better. Show details

The rate of return are competitive, However my actual maturity instructions were not followed. I had requested some funds to be credited to a different account & they were credited to my previous instruction details.

Judo bank is great value, easy to deal with and has a great App for information and applications. I have been with them around four years and find them very reliable.

Judo Bank is usually the top of the interest rates being promoted. Very easy to deal with. Been with them for Term Deposits for about 5 years now. Very reliable and easy to deal with. They offer a bonus interest by way of a loyalty bonus. Very good and back by the Federal Government guarantee.

I keep rolling over my Term Deposit with Judo Bank because of the competitive return, the extra loyalty bonus and the ease of the on-line process to manage my Term Deposit.

I recently opened a term deposit with Judo Bank and was impressed from start to finish. The application process was straightforward and hassle-free, and their internet banking platform is clean and easy to navigate. On top of that, their rates are among the most competitive I came across. Overall, a great experience and I wouldn't hesitate to recommend Judo Bank to anyone looking for a reliable term deposit option.

I have had term deposit with Judo Bank for the last three years. I find their interest rate is very comparable. I can renew online but I can talk to someone if I need to. Show details
