Hi @Bradyleisa, I'm sorry to hear that your funds have not yet been received.
If the funds were transferred electronically (ie within Online Banking) then it should only take up to 3 business days for these to arrive. I can certainly appreciate that not receiving funds at the expected time can be frustrating, though Bankwest have no control over incoming funds I'm sorry. We would process a payment on the same business day that it is received, this link may provide you with more information.
If the transfer was initiated with a Teller at another financial institution (ie cash or cheque deposit) then it can take up to 5 business days for the amount to be verified and cleared into your account. I do apologise for any disappointment this may cause.
We're not able to view your account(s) via the Forum, though if you'd like to have this looked into further, you can log in to Online Banking and select "Ask Us" via the Mobile App menu or "Message us Now" from a PC, where our Online Team would be happy to help out at any time, 24/7. Alternatively if you can't access Online Banking, you can give us a buzz at any time on 13 17 19.
Thank you.

Thanks Danae for your response. It has been on my account since Monday morning just not cleared my stepmum went into bank 9am Friday morning so it would be a swift process. So frustrating can see it sitting there just can't access it. I am honestly Cross this is the second time this has happened. Thanks anyway but there's no point ringing anyone they'll just say it's the other banks fault. Have a lovely day Leisa

Hi @Bradyleisa, I'm very sorry to hear that the funds haven't been cleared, I appreciate this would be frustrating.
As mentioned I'm not able to view your account to see what's happening, though you can select "Ask Us" from the bottom left side menu once logged into the Bankwest App, or "Message us Now" from the bottom and right side of the screen if logged into Online Banking from a PC to have this followed up.
If you aren't able to access this, you can call our Contact Centre at any time on 13 17 19.
