I don't personally have any problems although apparently a lot do.

562523 2007-06-25 03:16:00 i Use online banking all the time - if im not paying with eftpos im using online banking to pay for stuff - heck my parents went and bought me some new clothes last week and they said i could pay them next week - i just hopped on the computer and deposited the money into their account in a few minutes - showed up the next day no worries :thumbs: :thumbs: MAC_H8ER (5897)
562524 2007-06-25 03:33:00 Same, with TradeMe etc, I've had no problems. I've transferred as much as $10000 between accounts online and it was fine, just don't use IE:D beeswax34 (63)
562525 2007-06-25 03:35:00 I bank online. Well actually I put money into envelopes in the ATM.

Bills are paid online.


Haven't been into a branch for ages.
Why would I want to? Stand in a queue and take twice as long?

I also get $0 fees for my method of banking, thats $0 transaction and $0 monthly, $0 everything.


Doesn't make me trust them any more or less.

562526 2007-06-25 03:37:00 I've transfered over $100,000 between accounts, at different banks, online and had no problems. CYaBro (73)
562527 2007-06-25 03:40:00 We pay as many bills as possible online as well as having as much as possible go through our credit card to get the rewards points. Very handy being able to check all of our balances at 10pm at night or when ever it is necessary.
No problems with online security either from our end or the banks (who do report any online scams on their web site.)

562528 2007-06-25 04:06:00 I trust Online banking...

Don't really trust the banks though.

Dealing with them on behalf of people who have complaints with them, has led me to understand that a lot of their staff are not too bright. Shame really, as they make so much money by just flogging up the charges. Sad too that most of the profit goes to Oz. Excluding TSB etc.)

562529 2007-06-25 06:03:00 Online banking is something I have only recently looked at as an alternative to EFT-POS etc. Jury is still out on this one Myth (110)
562530 2007-06-25 06:14:00 Well the only thing you can't do with online banking is to get "actual" cash out and deposit cash or cheques although you don't always need cash money to buy stuff. winmacguy (3367)

Hmmmmmm... And here was me thinking that Apples come with cash I/O hardware instead of a 3.5 floppy.:D

Mostly input rather than output.
