When a PayID is made transferable, funds will continue to be received into the linked account until the PayID is transferred to another financial institution or the transfer is cancelled.

If you've been making additional repayments on your home loan above your minimum required repayment amount, Auswide Bank may allow you to redraw your advance payments~, and unlike many lenders, even on fixed rate home loans.
This simply means you have access to your 'advance balance' if you need it for unexpected bills or purchases, for home improvements, or to take advantage of an investment opportunity^.
~ The redraw facility is at Auswide Bank discretion and is subject to the terms and conditions of your loan and Auswide Bank credit criteria. Redraw is not available on all home loans. Advance payments made during any construction or progressive drawn down period will not be available to be redrawn at any time.
^ The most you can redraw ('redraw available') is the amount paid in advance on your loan ('advance status') minus one month's minimum loan repayment ('monthly repayment')
You redraw balance will display on the loan account as an available balance. You can check this in Internet Banking or the Mobile app.
Auswide Bank home loan redraw is available online via internet banking or on application at a branch or by completing the Redraw of Advance Funds form*.
When making a redraw request the following payment methods+ are available:
Payment by bank cheque is also available when making a redraw request in writing or at a branch.
NOTE:
* A redraw fee may apply to redraws performed at branches or upon written request.
+ Depending on the access method you choose to receive redraw funds, other fees & charges may apply
Topping up your home loan can be made by contacting an Auswide Bank lending consultant, calling us on 1300 138 831 or submitting an enquiry via our contact page.
An offset account is a transaction account that is linked to your home loan*. You can deposit and withdraw money from this account, just like a regular everyday account.
The balance in your mortgage offset account is offset against the amount owing on your linked home loan.
For example, if you have a home loan of $400,000 and $20,000 in your offset account, you’ll only be charged interest on a loan balance of $380,000 ($400,000 - $20,000).
A mortgage offset account means you could potentially save thousands of dollars on interest repayments, taking years off your home loan.
For full fees & charges, please review our Guide to Mortgage Offset Account.
* Mortgage Offset must be opened in at least one of the same names as the borrower’s loan account.
You can pay your loan weekly, fortnightly or monthly. Just make sure you have paid the full amount by your monthly due date. If you’re paying weekly for example, you will need to make four weekly payments by the monthly due date (monthly payment divided by four) or two payments if paying fortnightly (monthly payment divided by two).
Failure to make your loan payment in full by the due date will normally result in a Default Administration Fee (shown as Default Admin Fee on statements) and could harm your credit rating. These fees are detailed in your loan contract.
Please get in touch with us on 1300 138 831 if you need help setting up your loan repayment. If you are experiencing difficulties making a loan repayment please phone us on 1300 077 969 or email payments@auswidebank.com.au.
Periodic payments are amounts paid at regular intervals such as weekly or fortnightly. You can set-up repayments so they automatically adjust to your minimum monthly payment. This means when interest rates decrease or increase your payments change to reflect the new interest rate. To arrange this feature, send us a secure email via Internet Banking or contact us.
Communicating early is really important and so if you are experiencing financial difficulty, for example due to illness or unemployment, please let us know as soon as possible by contacting one of our Loan Payment Consultants on 1300 077 969 during business hours or via email on payments@auswidebank.com.au.
The Loan Payment Consultant will work with you to try and achieve a solution that benefits all parties.

Whether you’re transferring money overseas or you have friends or family that want to send you money from abroad, it’s easy with a Telegraphic Transfer. It's a fast and secure way to make international payments almost anywhere in the world.
If you wish to receive regular or one-off foreign currency payments to your Auswide Bank account, an inward Telegraphic Transfer may be the ideal solution.
An inward Telegraphic Transfer, also known as an ‘inward wire’ is an electronic transfer of funds from the overseas sender (made out in their own currency), which are converted into Australian dollars and credited to your account.
It's an easy way to receive your payment and more than likely at a lower cost. The benefits of an inward Telegraphic Transfer include:
Complete our online inward Telegraphic Transfer request to receive money from overseas.
Choose the country you are receiving funds from.
Complete the relevant information in the online form and submit.
You will then be presented with deposit instructions in a PDF file. Please save it for your reference, and email it to the person or business sending the funds to you.
Ask the sender to:
When you’re sending money overseas it’s easy with a Telegraphic Transfer. It's a fast and secure way to make international payments almost anywhere in the world.
The benefits of an outward Telegraphic Transfer include:
To request an outward Telegraphic Transfer, simply visit a branch or login to Internet Banking to complete an outward Telegraphic Transfer request. You will need to provide your residential address and the residential address for the receiver, as well as details of the account that the funds will be transferred to. This includes:
Beneficiary Bank Full Name
Beneficiary Bank Full Address
Account Number
Beneficiary's Full Name
Beneficiary's Residential Address
Purpose (Reference)
You may also need to provide some additional information when sending a Telegraphic Transfer to the following countries:
Europe: International Bank Account number (IBAN) – the IBAN incorporates the bank, sort code and account number
United Kingdom: IBAN
New Zealand: Bank code
Malaysia: National ID number or Company number
USA: ABA or routing code
Please note:
In processing a Telegraphic Transfer, we only rely on the bank account number and beneficiary bank details you provide. We do not rely on the bank account name.
It is a requirement under the Anti-Money Laundering and Counter-Terrorism Financing Act 2006 that identification is collected when sending a Telegraphic Transfer. If you are not an existing Auswide Bank client who has been previously identified, it will be necessary to produce acceptable forms of identification.
Funds cannot be transferred directly to an overseas credit card account. You may be able to arrange to pay a credit card bill if you send the funds to the suspense account of the overseas bank's card division.
Telegraphic Transfers are not available to the following countries: Afghanistan, Angola, Cuba, India, Iran, Libya, Myanmar (Burma), Nauru, North Korea, Seychelles, Sudan, Syria, Russia.
Telegraphic transfers are sent via a network of correspondent banks, which sometimes levy a small handling charge on your payment. Any such fees, and payment delays, are out of our control.
We can arrange a trace for outward Telegraphic Transfers, but only after 5 working days have elapsed from the date the order was placed. There is no fee for conducting a trace, unless the funds were credited to the overseas beneficiary account prior to the trace being requested (in which case a fee will apply).
If you wish to cancel an outward Telegraphic Transfer after placing an order, the transaction will be reversed using the prevailing ‘buy’ exchange rate (rather than the original ‘sell’ exchange rate) and so you may incur a loss depending on exchange rate movements.
To arrange a trace or to cancel an outward Telegraphic Transfer you have ordered through Auswide Bank please contact us.
