It is clearly thematic that we trust the brands of physical stores. No surprise that Bunnings and Aldi rank one and two respectively. But they are also in the company of retail peers including Kmart, Apple, Big W, Myer, JB Hi-Fi and Australia Post inside the top 10 for trust.

10 most trusted brands (Source: Roy Morgan)

  1. Bunnings
  2. Aldi
  3. Kmart
  4. Commonwealth Bank
  5. Apple
  6. Big W
  7. Myer
  8. Toyota
  9. JB Hi-Fi
  10. Australia Post

The remainder of the brands that comprise the 10 least trusted brands are less about the industry in which they sit and have more aberrant reasons for their inclusion.

I need to find a way to rescue my Dolomites account.

Yeah that's how they hook everyone. It was fine when it was a publicly owned bank.

Wait, the dolomites program is still around? I was joking about my old account from before the bank was privatised.

Actually, I'm not sure if they're still allowed in schools, it's not been long gone, if it is.... looked it up, closed in 2022.

I had to go in-person to a branch with ID, but once I was there it was pretty quick.
