| BoQ Joins rediATM Network - 16 November 2010 |
| Good news for our rediATM users. The Bank of Queensland (BoQ) has announced it will be joining forces with the rediATM network. BoQ's 350 bank-owned ATMs will be progressively rebranded to rediATM from 1 October 2010, with all becoming part of the network by the end of the year. Once the migration process is complete the rediATM network will boast more than 3,500 ATMs across the country, from the high streets of our nation's cities right through to remote and regional areas. As more organisations like BoQ continue to join, your ATM network will continue to grow and will ensure you are always able to transact at a rediATM without incurring a direct charge fee*. |
| * Please be aware that only BoQ ATMs already showing the rediATM branding are direct charge free at this stage. Using any BoQ ATM that does not show the rediATM branding will still incur a fee. |
