Been in Aus for a month, and bled white every day by Aus/NZ banks.ANZ in NZ can't begin to explain why ANZ in Aus is ripping me off on every credit [which is the only convenient option] transaction.It's deliberately turning a blind eye to the inherent dishonesty involved imo.
ANZ NZ and ANZ AU are two separate entities. The systems are incompatible. They only share a common owner.
Don't know shit about banking, so talk slowly. Why the fuck cant a bank that operates in two countries, give you a bank account that works in both countries. It'd be like Vodafone saying "Nah fuck off, no roaming in aussie"

How does a bank pay for their staff's wages, bank properties, the hardware/software for controlling money/investments, electricity to said bank, the paper forms they use etc. etc.
Interest.. *looks at mortgage history*.. yup.. Interest..
No argument with that.But they're not passing on the benefits of the computer age.They're still charging as though some guy was manually making every transaction, instead of a big data centre doing a million things a second.
I got a platinum credit card today And I pay no fees at all so I cant complain. The ANZ make your own eftpos card is also mean...and free!
I'd say they are. All the banks have electronic accounts which have no fees for things like setting up AP, provided they are set up online.All the manual transaction fees are for when it's manually done in a branch by some guy.Unarranged overdraft fee can be pretty silly, because usually the only way to get into an unarranged overdraft is by another fee. It's pretty much a double fee.That, and the fee for a failed AP payment. They should just decline it and how an eftpos transaction gets declined. Or pay it and put the account into overdraft, I wouldn't mind the overdraft fee so much in that case, because at least the bill go paid.
I thought the Queen of England was responsible for everything.
