Canstar's Sally Tindall says it's not just the big four that are cutting perks.

Bank of Queensland, Bank SA, Bank of Melbourne, St George, Bank West.

There's so many banks coming out there now announcing that they're going to be completely restructuring their rewards programs ahead of the October 1 RBA ban on credit and debit card surcharges.

Canstar's Sally Tindall says banks may eventually find themselves under pressure to offer more.

So the months ahead, time will tell to see whether customers are willing to wear the reeling in of these rewards points and perks that come with their credit card.

The RBA says credit card rewards and fees are ultimately commercial decisions made by individual banks.

ComBank says customers who aren't eligible for their yellow program can have their remaining awards points converted to cash.

So it was essentially like when we grew up or when I grew up in Adelaide, there was Crime Stoppers.

It was a Bank SA kind of thing, and you'd find out if someone went missing in Adelaide or whatnot.

But these days, no one watches TV.

There's not that one channel.

'Cause we've seen cr- card changes announced from all four big banks, so CBA, NAB, Westpac, ANZ, but also their subsidiaries.

So we're talking about St. George, Bank of Melbourne, Bank SA, uh, Coles, Virgin, mycard, which is the old Citi cards that are now been taken over by NAB.

David Jones, that's the Latitude cards.

There's so many cards that are undergoing changes, and the dates are all different.

But if

anybody knows, if anybody attended the Royal Show between 2000 and 2020, when Nance and I were up there hosting the Coca-Cola stage, Golden North stage, Bank SA stage, Goida, wherever one of those stages were that we had the pleasure of emceeing at the Royal Show for many years, Maria was one of our regular return audience members.

Front seat.

For more than the time that we worked there for 20 years together.
