Savings accounts.
Savings accounts are dedicated to one purpose: saving. They don’t have the flexibility and payment options that a transaction account does, and they can’t be used to directly pay bills or withdraw cash from.
Online Savings Account.
If you’re looking to get cash from your Online Savings Account, first you’ll need to transfer the money to the account you’ve nominated as linked to your savings account (which might be a ME account or an account with another bank). Once the money arrives in your linked account, you can withdraw the cash from there.
Credit cards
If you need to, you can get a cash advance from your credit card by withdrawing cash at an ATM, but there are fees involved – find out about credit card cash advance.
Getting cash overseas?
Heading abroad? You can use your ME cards to withdraw cash just about anywhere in the world – just make sure you’ve read up on your overseas fees and charges.
