AustralianSuper Anmeldelser 

I have tried private messaging. I have sent snail mail. I have changed my phone number and I am overseas. The only way to log onto my app is via text message to my now redundant phone number. The only way I can change phone numbers is by calling them to their overseas call number. BUT - THEY NEVER ANSWER THE PHONE. The same applies using their web page - text message to prove who you are. This is an EPIC FAIL. I have been trying for months now.

I would give 0 stars if I could, trying to roll over super to my SMSF and the process is an absolute joke! Not to mention the fact that the link they give you in the form to upload takes you no where and then the chat bot spit outs useless information!!! Plus the contributions made for 18 months have not grown, Ive just had fee after fee taken out slowly negating any profit! Hence why I am self managing!!

we attempted to withdraw cash via the online portal and it said a week ago it was successful. we didnt receive confirmation and followed up. No record have to apply again but our system is not working so when you get to the end says its failed - try again and again and again then ring and hold for an hour on 8 different occasions. AI well there is no intelligence at Australian Super they just using your money for their long lunches. Reviews indicate this has been a problem for months and the Ombudsman obviously has a relationship there.

This company reeks of coaching staff into delay tactics to try and make customers walk away,they receive all the relevant documentation and still use that stupid generic email to make you repeat your information and to delay your withdrawal,fed government need's to crack the whip on this mob or just take away their trading licence, customer service is an absolute disgrace

Zero stars. Their customer service is inexistent. I’ve spent HOURS on the phone, on HOLD, never capable of reach anyone. The chat is the same. If they take too long to reply (and they always do) they disconnect the chat. It’s the most terrible service I’ve ever experienced.

The worse of the worse. Can't even transfer money to a smsf without being rejected 10 times. Bunch if clowns. I am moving to vanguard

I tried to rollover my money to a SMSF, they are not letting you have your money back. Everyone thinks they will get the returns they show, but you will not get a dime of your money back with Australian super. One example tactic they use is they ask for all the exact names of the employers contributed super, even if you provide the names which employers provided, Aus super says those incorrect, so your money is stuck forever. Do not go with Australian super if you want your money back

Genuinely the worst customer service experience I have ever dealt with which is impressive. I am withdrawing my super as I am leaving Australia and they have asked me to get a certified copy to prove I am who I say I am which that in itself is hilarious, the bank doesn’t ask you to get a brand new certified copy every time you withdraw money. I got the document certified by a solicitor and a police officer for good measure and both were rejected as the copy didn’t state the “Australian terminology” on it. I am now paying money and wasting more time to get a third version of a document that should not be required to access my own money.

A nice added bonus was when Zoe the customer service rep asked me if my contact info had changed since leaving Australia, I informed her my number had and provided her my new number. Her response was to ring the overseas help line and request a number change, very unhelpful from start to finish, steer clear. My super also lost 2.5k in value over its last year of investments , stay away !

Australian Super is the worst financial company I have ever dealt with!
Their financial advisers are incompetent not knowing how to manage the funds based on market fluctuations! The return on investments is very poor and they don't have much options!
Their customer service is at the lowest level! I had to send them an email regarding my concerns logging in from overseas, it took them 5 days to reply to my email which did not even address the concerns I communicated with them.
They don't care about customer care, just automatic reply which doesn't mean anything! Even if you contact them on the phone, they forward your call to someone who doesn't know how to help you!
They have a very poor customer service and very limited options of investment!

Their systems are a joke. They have a pretence that the systems are customer based but they create a new member for you every time you need a change. They force you into archaic paper-based solutions because they have no confidence in their security systems. It is a minimum 30 minutes of waiting on the phone and then you are often told to put it in writing. Anything in writing/email gets a 'minimum 5-7 business days' response.

It has taken me over 30 phone calls, and 3 official complaints to get them to make a simple change from personal additional contributions to employer additional contributions. Every time I call I am told something different, been given incorrect instructions and generally given the run around. My tax return is delayed and therefore a loan application has been delayed and I am about to lose a house I have purchased, all because they are unwilling to help me. Each time I upload a required document, I have to wait 5 days and then something entirely different is requested (if my uploads are acknowledged at all). I am at breaking point. Their staff are untrained and couldn’t care less. Dealing with them has been a source of extreme stress and anxiety and I actually do not know what to do. My simple query has had a knock on effect that has eaten up a month of my time and I am now out of time with no forward movement. As an industry fund avoid at all costs!!! There are better options out there. I am so disheartened, disappointed, stressed and fed up. They simply don’t care about their customers.

Terrible, they approved the early release of my funds, but to access my funds, I have to get a non treating doctor to fill in a form. So I have to someone that knows nothing about me or my condition, to fill in a form about me and condition. It's insane.

There is a reason why this fund gets an average of 1 star for their performance.

I concur with the reviews provided on this regarding their experience with AustralianSuper. It has been such a NIGHTMARE dealing with them to get my super fund rolled over. Delay after constant delay and so many excuses to NOT process my rollover. They don't even communicate to you, they just expect you to call them back to follow up and then find another excuse to delay processing the request.

Multiple and chats with them to follow up and it still has not been resolved. I have raised a complaint to AFCA for the lack of transparency and awfully dismal customer experience.

Tried multiple times to open a choice account. I am a member the systems fall over constantly, navigation is muddled and online applications just fail.

Worse they are aware of the problem and seem in no rush to fix. Hours wasted.

I live overseas, and Aust. Super just introduced MFA - but failed to setup a system that accommodates overseas numbers - 3 weeks and over 2 hours on phone calls - and they still cant sort out the issue to allow me to access my account. Very disappointed in their service and customer facing experience.

Absolute tosspots. Do not touch them with a ten foot pole.
Incompetent, greedy, unhelpful....these chix go out there way NOT TO ARSEIST.
Do yourself a favor, and simply start school all ova again if you remotely even trust the likes of these greese balls.
Theyll keep ya money, expect ya to be happy wiv a zero point zero zero zero 2 per cent return on investment while they sit there and engage in mass distribution across their own pockets only
I think they await muha to bum round the mountain but then when the camel does appear, spend their greesy backsides trying to beet the poor littel bugga down.
Unless you enjoy a spot of pubes in ya Samosa's from a crew labelled the scrow scratchers, stay away from the munk ees....otherwise known as oz west plumbing and mingk keens bingo discordian piano man hempire

I continue to receive prompt and efficient service from Australian Super. Each request for a withdrawal from my account has been processed within 5 days. Providing all the required documentation is of course necessary to ensure prompt processing. I am grateful for the service I receive. Thank you.

❌ Extremely frustrating DASP withdrawal experience – 5 months of unnecessary delays

I applied for a Departing Australia Superannuation Payment (DASP) after finishing my Working Holiday Visa. While this process typically takes under one month with other superannuation providers, it took me over five months with AustralianSuper.

The service was disorganized, inefficient, and inconsistent from start to finish. I was asked to provide multiple expensive documents, including ones notarized and approved by Australian authorities, which added unnecessary costs and stress.

Ironically, they ended up releasing my funds before even receiving the documents they had demanded — a clear sign that their internal process is flawed and poorly managed.

⚠️ I strongly advise anyone planning a DASP withdrawal after a WHV to avoid AustralianSuper. Other providers are much faster, simpler, and more reliable.

⭐ Rating: 0/5

Worst experience I ever had with any customer service. I left the country trying to withdraw my balance. Impossible for me because of « unmatching name » on my forms. Spend hours calling them and paying for overseas calls. Stupid company.

I would give them a minus 100% if I could.

I have spoken to 5 agents in the past 2 days and spent hours going nowhere. They use a system that does not meet expectations.

Several technical errors and inability to use their inefficient system will plague every user.

To verify me, they have verified my drivers license, my Medicare card, my address, my account with Centrelink and my digital ID verification failed because they could not verify me on AEC system despite me giving them the data that AEC (customer service agent Lydia) confirmed as being correct.

They email saying someone will process the request in 5 business days. Too bad if you are under financial hardship.

Agents refuse (every time) to let you speak with a manager, so there is no recourse for incompetent agents who all have Indian accents.

They give you ultimatums and they hang up.

Looking for a good provider, do look elsewhere!

I am withdrawing all funds and closing my account with them due to their incompetency. There must be some truth in the fact that 117 reviews here give them a very low score!

Agents (6) I have spoken to who have wasted my time include: Shreya, Prem (the worst), Mansi (the Fast Resolution team member), Emma - i spent 30 minutes with her verifying who i was for her to tell me no Fast Resolution member was working at that time. She even wanted to change my name on my account without my permission; Sameer and Preshant who wanted to be called 'Presh': he failed to create a new complaint about himself.

After having verified myself on multiple occasions and with all my private data: Medicare drivers license, Centrelink and with images and having completed application forms, Presh told me I must use physical verification to get a verified copy of one of drivers license or passport, sign by a JP, etc. WTF...

More delays in my application. So what is the next loop hole they will attempt before they send me my money?

Pissed Off Verified Australian Super Member. (But not for long)

p.s. It may take us up to 5 business days to respond during busy periods.
