Fees

You told us that you want fairer banking, and we listened. NAB Classic Banking promises you:

Non-NAB ATMs

To avoid ATM fees it's best to use our NAB ATM network, including rediATMs.

We don't charge you for using other ATMs, but the owners of other ATMs might directly charge you. If they do, you'll see a message and you'll have the option to quit before you're charged.

Overseas ATMs

There are fees for using ATMs overseas - $4 per withdrawal and $1 per balance enquiry.

There’s also a 2% fee on the Australian dollar transaction amount for cash withdrawals or purchases made in currencies other than Australian dollars.
