Changes to how you bank with us

Upcoming changes that may impact customers

7 October 2024

We recently notified Rural Bank customers that Rural Bank products will be transitioned to equivalent Bendigo Bank products from 8 November 2024. However, we now need to postpone the transition, which is now anticipated to occur in early 2025. We will update this webpage and advise customers of the new transition date once it is confirmed. We thank customers for their patience as we make these important changes to provide a better banking experience.

While many things will stay the same after the transition (e.g. your account number), there will be some changes. A description of the changes is available in the product variation notices available below.

Once the transition happens, you will be able to see your account and product details in Bendigo Bank e-banking, which you can access via www.bendigobank.com.au and the mobile app. We will send you more information on how to do this in due course.

We understand that the transition may be a big change for you. While it is our belief that this is a stronger proposition for you, you may have a different view and we respect that.

If you have any queries or concerns about these changes or the transition, please contact us.
