If you are a recipient of eligible Services Australia income support payments or Department of Veterans Affairs’ payments and the account which the payment is directed to becomes overdrawn, please let us know when we speak with you.
Under the Code of Operations, individuals who receive an eligible payment from Services Australia or Department of Veteran Affairs, are able to keep at least 90% of that payment for living expenses when you receive a payment into an overdrawn transaction account. We will also take this into consideration when we are negotiating payment arrangements on other debts you owe us.
To receive at least 90% of the eligible payment, you will need to visit a Bankwest branch near you. You can also call us 13 17 19, but you will still need to visit a branch for access to funds.
We’re working to make sure our banking and website is accessible to everyone.
National Relay Service users can be connected to any of our phone numbers.
Available 8am – 5pm AWST Monday to Friday, except WA and national public holidays.
We’re helping support you, no matter how remote your location. Call our dedicated line, created to provide better banking access for our Indigenous Australian customers.
Access a free interpreter service through our branches and over the phone.
We take care of all the BS (bank stuff) so you can access the knowledge you need to make informed decisions. When we write a guide or article, we take steps to make sure the information is relevant, accurate and most of all, helpful.
