A while ago I wanted to withdraw cash from my Westpac account but I didn’t have my wallet with me I went into the bank and asked to do a “cardless” withdrawal. I was asked for my licence but as I didn’t have my wallet with me I could only show my digital licence. This was rejected by the teller...

I thought exactly the same thing. Gas would not remain in the pipe once it has been removed from the gas bottle as there is no non-return valve employed. MAYBE it is the spark (lighter) button that is pressed when the BBQ is squashed in the truck causing a spark but this is so momentary that...

There is no “PHONE” in “SETTINGS” that I can find. I have iPhone 16e and am on 26.0.1 with no further updates to be applied. Has anyone else found this? Is this a scam???

We’ve been with ING for a few years and have enjoyed over 5.5% interest until recently. No probs with increasing the investment in order to to get the higher interest rate. I just have a standing order of $10 from Everyday account to the Savings Maximiser on the second last, banking, day of the...

So, has he actually signed off yet? According to the above it was on 22 September but we haven’t had that yet. A bit confusing!!

A bit silly making reference to Costco Pakenham being close (not THAT close) to the Pakenham railway line. How many people would bulk buy then get the train home!!

Living in WesternVictoria and having all our family in the Melbourne suburbs a 4 hour trip through the city is necessary at least once a month to catch up with the grandchildren. We have found that on a busy visit we can spend around $45 on toll fees in a weekend. After much trial and error we...
