ANZ Phone Direct

ANZ Phone Direct fees are calculated per calendar month and charged to the first linked account on the account's key date. Call charges will apply for calls made from overseas or cellular phones.

Account's Key Date

An account's key date is the date of the month on which your account was opened. So, if your account was opened on the 11th of the month, this is your account's key date. The account's key date is important because it triggers the following events:

  • Interest will be credited or debited to an account on this date.
  • Administration and account transaction fees will be charged to an account on this date.
  • A statement will be issued on this date, unless you have specifically agreed otherwise with the Bank, or if you have a passbook to record transactions on an account.

Note: Each of your accounts has its own key date.
