I think this may be something that varies to region.
I lived in the UK for 32 years and never sent a fax or even saw a fax machine outside of a museum.
Couple of years ago I moved to Australia. Got a credit card for travel with Bankwest. In order to set up a direct debit to pay it off I had to fax them.
In the end I got them to fax themselves my details.
I'm not sure whether Bankwest is just incompetent, or if they deliberately make this difficult so that more people will miss their payments.
- discordance 6y agoWeird. My experience with Australian banks has been the opposite. Sign up and ID verification online/in-app, and within a few minutes I have a new bank account I can transfer money in and out of.
- GlennS 6y agoGuess it varies per bank. My main accounts are with NAB, and they seem pretty up to date. Maybe Bankwest in particular are stuck in the past.
