Did anyone esle have trouble with Westpac on Friday?????
The system went down and when it came back up, I no longer had access, it was no longer accepting 7 digit PIN's, only 6.
After waiting on hold for an hour, I luckily get a very helpful guy, who tells me that it hasn't accepted 7 digit pins for a few years..... but I tell him I've used the same one since 2000!!!!! must have been a glich in the system that their upgrade on Friday finally picked up. Helpful guy, but the bank policy stinks.
Anyway somewhere prior to all this crap they had deleted my son's bank account, without notifying us, due to inactivity they said it had gone overdrawn with bank fees like, hello.... it's a student account, they DONT HAVE BANK FEES!!!!!!!!!!!!
St George however were extremely helpful and sorted everything out over the phone, opening a new account for my son so he now has his OWN card and internet banking, not relying on being linked to mine etc.
A big thumbs down to Westpac, you've lost 3 customers out of this
