Of thank F…!
Commbank finally reversed the duplicate transaction that put my account into the negative by a large margin.
Spent the whole day stressing about it. I hope that’s the end of the ordeal and nothing else happens.
Might actually think about getting a 2nd bank account somewhere else just as a backup sometime.
Now I finally concentrate on doing other things other than worrying about things.
This happened to someone I know today as well! Apparently something happened with their system.
They did maintenance last night and when it came back live it started duplicating transactions I made on Thursday, which happened to be when I had some payments to make.
It really sucked and just shows if something like that happens the bank won’t be there to cover you.
That's a relief for you!
I have accounts with a couple of banks for that reason. I've considered starting an additional one too, but I'm not sure if that's overkill.
Yeah so it doesn’t leave me in a bind like this even though it’s exceptionally rare.
Anyway I’m going to destress tonight if I can. I’ve wasted basically all day monitoring it all.
Fantastisch to hear!!
Excellent news!!!
Just don't open an account with westpac 🤣 They had issues all week
