1436333 2017-06-09 20:45:00 My ANZ banking app, and the ANZ.co.nz website, both work fine when I'm connected to wifi at home. Up until yesterday (when I switched mobile companies) they both worked fine when on mobile data as well.

Yesterday I changed SIM card to a different company and now the mobile app and the website time-out when trying to connect. If I switch to wifi they both work fine. This is, of course, a problem because most of the time when I need the app it's while I'm out-and-about and not connected to wifi :)

Is this a known problem, or something that the banks do intentionally? Am I likely to get any help actually from the bank?

I am currently in Mexico and my mobile provider is US based. On T-Mobile now, was on Verizon until yesterday.

Any suggestions on how I can fix it?

Cheers,
Mike.

Leave Mexico. I read that that country has the highest murder rate in the world. :(

Actually Mexico is quite safe if you behave and keep out of where you don't belong. Most murders are associated with the cartels - if you have nothing to do with them then you should be fine. We live here so leaving isn't an option.

1436336 2017-06-09 21:50:00 Talk to your bank. I know that with my bank app that the device is registered for use individually. I can't log in with an unregistered phone. Probably your change of provider is the problem. CliveM (6007)

Probably your change of provider is the problem. I had wondered that, but I can't even access the anz.co.nz website, it times-out. I don't even get to a point to log in!

1436338 2017-06-09 22:21:00 Can you access any other web sites from the new Provider ? Using wireless instead of the Mobile data as you are aware is totally different.
Just a thought -If you can access other websites, esp https OK, "Maybe" the new provider has blocked the ANZ. :2cents:

1436341 2017-06-10 08:10:00 See if similar happens by accessing other NZ banking websites, e.g. ASB, Kiwibank, etc. Sometimes I can't access my ASB App on data at a local shopping mall, unless if I turn off wifi on my mobile. kahawai chaser (3545)
