BOQ credit card holders can access 3,500 ATMs after new partnership

Bank of Queensland customers will now be able to access more fee-free ATMs following an agreement.

The Bank of Queensland (BOQ) debit and credit card holders can now access 3,500 ATMs across the country without having to incur a fee after a new agreement.

The firm has announced a partnership with rediATM which will enable its customers to use the devices for free - and 80 per cent of the machines appear in shopping centres and high street locations.

Managing director for the firm - which provides BOQ credit cards - David Liddy said the organisation is always looking for alternatives to the big banks.

He added: "It is another way we are delivering on our promise of your own personal bank - we believe our customers should be able to do their banking whenever and wherever it is convenient for them."

Later this year the firm's ATMs will be co-branded with its new partner, while last month thousands of ANZ Aussie credit card machines stop working after a glitch, the Australian Associated Press reported.
