More Netbank Stuff
Are you tired of hearing about Netbank yet? I’m tired of dealing with it. So I put in a request with my payroll department about two weeks ago (when they told us how quickly our Netbank account was going away) to have my direct deposit switched over. So today I check and, oh yes, they’ve still deposited it to Netbank…which is fine for today but not so fine for two weeks from now. Another call to make today.
When I logged in to Netbank to check (after not finding the money at ING) I saw a new message:
Effective December 3rd, 2007, the Consolidation Service will no longer be available. The Financial Institutions previously designated by you (external accounts) will no longer be able to access your NetBank account information and no further external (ACH) transfers will be processed.
So…wouldn’t it be nice to find that out before, oh, the last business day before it happens? I have bills scheduled to be paid from ING (since I assumed that my paycheck would be there) and of course their ACH takes a couple of days. So today I scheduled a transfer of money (my paycheck) so the cash would be there for the bills on Dec 3-7 (they will transfer my Netbank account there the night of the 7th, so by the 8th all my money should be together). But since it’s Friday, the transfer won’t take place until Monday, and it’s unclear from the above message whether ACH stops at 12:01 am on the 3rd, or 12:59 pm. Ah well, I’ll find out. That’s what the overdraft line is for I guess.
