What cheeses me off

My credit card payment with Bankwest due date was on the 4/11. Money out of my WP account on Wednesday and still not cleared by BW today. I need to spend a bit of money tomorrow so just transferred some money and I know it will clear overnight.

Really p!ssing me off
 
Today was the turn of the CBA They wanted to see Mrsdrron to confirm her details about our SMSF. Now I had already confirmed those details a month ago with a letter from our accountant. I was silly enough to think that they would just need to confirm who she was. Oh no they wanted everything from the ABN of the SMS to the auditors name. And then the agent had to confirm with someone in authority that it was OK if we didn’t have all that there today. She was on hold for about 45 minutes.

Then Mrsdrron went to withdraw some cash from her account whilst I got some USD out of my USD account. I have done this many times before and I always ring and make sure that they have some on hand. She told me that was useless as we send the foreign currency to Brisbane nearly every day and they don’t reserve it for anyone So another 45 minutes gone. All up we were there for 2 hours.

But the last thing I said was that I had made the right decision having most of the SMSF’s shares with CMC.
