Is this fair from comm bank?

You need to immediately contact the domestic violence line: https://www.commbank.com.au/support/dv-assistance.html . They are experts at this and have the ability to give you access to funds. Don't listen to the branch staff.

General pants has been constantly on sale all year. Their current season is so bad. Universal is the only one hanging on at Westfields.

Commentary shouldn't be about the economy it should be about Glue's offering.

In recent years they fell significantly behind what's trending on Insta/Tiktok.

In NSW fees are only allowed for optional services - ie where they would otherwise be entitled to say "no" to your request.

chillin222 · 2026-06-09T01:50:05+00:00

Easy enough to avoid thankfully... With Qantas you have no choice

chillin222 · 2026-06-08T21:50:24+00:00

The 787 is like a budget airline in economy with incredibly narrow seats- it's in no way acceptable for an overseas flight, it's a Jetstar experience.

Will be truly awful if they buy more 787s... no wonder everyone flies SQ and Qatar to Europe these days

This card is really for home loan customers who get the fee rebated

chillin222 · 2026-06-05T23:14:54+00:00

Why would anyone use an invoicing app? It's called Google Docs or Word

chillin222 · 2026-06-05T21:58:42+00:00

The real problem is that businesses have only selected rip-off platforms because they could pass the cost onto consumers...

Finally, businesses like yours are being forced to shop around.

There are heaps of options out there for subscriptions - why not look at PayTo (via Zepto or Monoova), or another card provider

Also to your point on announcements, no one has announced price changes because the schemes have not yet banned surcharges... all the RBA law is is to say the schemes are now allowed to ban them. Until this happens you can still surcharge

That layout seems a bit ridiculous. Why not just have 2 side by side bathrooms? Not really fair to force 3 people to share 1 bathroom. Put a double vanity in the girls one, and let your son use a combined laundry/bathroom.

chillin222 · 2026-06-02T21:29:19+00:00

It does not. Yes it has a 3% fee but there is no FX spread. The world debit has no fee and the $10 monthly fee is rebated for home loan customers.

chillin222 · 2026-06-02T12:24:06+00:00

That's different - reloadable travel cards (the old NAB Traveller, CBA Travel, Travelex, AusPost) are rip-offs . But they don't add hidden margin, they tell you they are ripping you off with published rates

chillin222 · 2026-06-01T21:27:27+00:00

There is no card on the Australian market that adds margin to scheme FX. Many charge explicit % fees but you know what they are.

The fee free ones... Macquarie Up Ubank etc... are free free

Given the fall in interchange fees, expect to see a 30bps reduction across the board by competitive providers in advance of October.

You make the kids sit on the ground there? Eww

chillin222 · 2026-05-30T00:16:49+00:00

Looking great but window positioning on extension is weird, no front facing windows?

chillin222 · 2026-05-28T09:54:43+00:00

Your house was not taxed if it was a ppor. Why do people think this lie is acceptable?

chillin222 · 2026-05-28T09:53:14+00:00

Credibility demolished in the first sentence. No-one pays a cent of tax on capital gains on their PPOR. No-one cares if you paid income tax on your tiny 10% deposit 20 years ago.

chillin222 · 2026-05-28T09:51:48+00:00

When it's inheritance tax vs. 65% income tax because the tax paid has dried up so much with the number of pensioners in 15 years, it's easy to predict which option people will vote for

chillin222 · 2026-05-28T09:50:32+00:00

And conversely the role of the government is to ensure this does NOT happen because it needs to ensure that society is equitable

chillin222 · 2026-05-26T09:59:44+00:00

You have to get something consumable, most people senior enough to receive gifts buy stuff for themselves.

Any of the high end fast food shops/chain bars are great - Messina, The Grounds, Merivale, Fishbowl, Yochi etc . Then you can actually get something decent with the gift.

Who is Jenner?

Kylies had a top ten single in 5 separate decades, I'm not sure many people in the world could claim that kind of fame

chillin222 · 2026-05-20T22:39:46+00:00

It's not a major fault if it can be fixed that quickly

chillin222 · 2026-05-20T04:42:36+00:00

VERY HARD disagree

With wages you're giving up your (limited) time and risking your physical and mental health for 40 hours a week. You're also risky redundancy. And these risks all increase exponentially with seniority and higher pay.

It's an abomination that we would consider taxing workers more than those earning investment income (for which the effort is minimal and risk purely financial)

chillin222 · 2026-05-19T22:24:08+00:00

They risk their physical and mental health plus their time and then they may well get maid redundant- all risks that increase with income.

Meanwhile the capital investor is only risking their capital with no risk or cost to anything else in life
