  14. "[Westpac NZ chief executive Catherine] McGrath herself was featured in a fake article, which was linked from Meta platforms, which showed deep fakes of her clashing with NZ First leader Winston Peters. The bank lodged complaints with Meta, which the bank said were ignored."

    1news.co.nz/2026/04/23/meta-mi

    If a TV station broadcast stuff like this, and management refused to take meaningful action to prevent a repeat, they'd be shut down. Why not FB?

  18. Oh wow. Just been reading; for a #PayID payment into a #Westpac account the period whereby the sender can claim it was a Mistaken Internet Payment is.... wait for it... 7 months!!! You can be scammed 7 months after receiving payment. And the best bit, the banks might not even tell you, they just accept each other's word and transfer the money back.

  29. Apparently have succeeded in sending $500 to a relative in South Africa.

    #Westpac has, during this process;
    suspended my internet and phone banking,
    demanded I visit a branch in person to verify my ID,
    not taken the block off my phone banking when they should have,
    not sent a OTC as requested, etc, etc.

    ABSA has charged +$50 to return money they wouldn't deposit into an account that they'd received the details for.

    And WU website didn't work nicely either.

    May send $ overseas?
    Set it up now.

  34. Tried "international banking" with SWIFT / BIC codes etc using a big Australian bank, Westpac.

    They blocked my internet banking in retaliation.

    Had to attend a branch in person and then wait +3 hours for a verification phone call to get access to internet banking again.

    Fortunately no one was in urgent need of the money.
    And hopefully I'll be able to smoothly transfer money in future.
    But the ✓@π§∆°! service.
