Damn, that's farken crap!

If the person tried to increase the limit over the counter AND FAILED, why didn't they confiscate the card.

I'm with the CBA too :blink:

I think they increased the limit over the phone from what i can gather. Any joe could do that really, same as activating a card.

You just need a few minor details that the kent would have stolen from my mailbox no doubt.

Whoever tried to change the PIN in person, i know that the PIN changed failed as it was noted in my "history"

But it still fails to explain how they got access to the account which is the main issue.

I couldnt give a flying f*ck if someone tried all this and failed and that was that. Proves a system works.

Its more that they failed on the PIN change... and STILL got in somehow without raising any alarms... i mean farken hell.

Someone trying to change a PIN over the counter without ANY photo ID... after seeing the log the operator/teller should have seen the other attempts to change my account details etc... and nothing.

They are morons, they will have to pay you back, thats all there is to it.

I would shit myself if i had a large amount of money just "disappear"

Yer, i'll get it back no doubt. Just the BS thats gotta go on beforehand really.

I did more than shit myself lemme tell you...

My mind was running wild... like... "fark maybe i was drugged and dont remember?"

"Did i sleep walk or something random?"

"How drunk was i the other day?"

"Its possible im really forgetful!"

etc etc lol. My mind is creative sometimes in its own retarded way at the best of times, but it was in total retarded overdrive for a while

Then when the info of the location of the ATM's came through i was like... hmm... couldnt see myself walking there.

Couldnt have gotten there in my sleep

that sucks penis ash, sorry to hear, let us know if you need some dorras to get you by

its funny tho, if something like this happens they say 3-4 weeks, but if you owe them $20 they take it instantly and dont wait and give you lots of late fee's etc, but when its the other way around, 3-4 weeks is acceptable, pricks

My mind was running wild... like... "fark maybe i was drugged and dont remember?"

"Did i sleep walk or something random?"

"How drunk was i the other day?"

"Where did i meet that blonde chick, she gave me some nice drink :blink:"

"Its possible im really forgetful!"

Shit,

You're going oversea in a few weeks too, we can start an SAU VIC personal loan for you with low interest rate mate.

What a bummer. It makes me think it may possibly be an inside job, anyone that works at CBA I am sure would have access to sensitive information that would be required to change the withdrawal amount, they may know how to pull a prank like this off. Just funny how they were able to withdraw funds without changing the pin, unless they knew what it was. What if they stole the new card & pin before it was posted. Just another angle to look at I guess, good luck in retrieving the funds.

don't ATM's take photos?

and yeah, how do you access the card without a pin? I'm sure as shit everytime I got a new card they sent you a new PIN separately a couple of days apart.

They must have attained my pin, or changed it.

The case log says that this person "couldnt"... but that doesnt mean it didnt happen.

Hence i think my mail has been raided... worst thing is i didnt tell anyone i was getting a new card. So its either an insider job, or someone raided the mail and got VERY lucky.

There is no way they got it without a PIN though, so they found it out somehow as i certainly didnt give it to anyone

Sorry to hear mate, thats pathetic. You always hear about it on the Internet and TV but never think it can happen so close to home.

For what it's worth, I was with the CBA for about 3 years but due to several things I wouldnt class as professional, I switched to the ANZ who have been superb and are even open Saturday mornings too in some places which is a huge help.

Hope you get it sorted mate.

i just caught the end of a story on the radio about some sort of card/hacking rort going on at the moment.....maybe its got something to do with that???which ever way...do what i do....i leave my bank account with $10 in it to keep it open to cash cheques...keep all your dough in your pocket or hidden....theres no fees on cutting a hole in your floor boards,no government record,no withdrawl limits and no "im sorry sir if you want that sort of cash you have to let us know in advance" what a load of crap...outlaw them i say!after all....all they do is charge you to hold onto money thats yours?????????

that sucks ash, i had the exact same thing happen to me last year when i was with the commonwealth bank. new card, same pin, they activated it and went in and took money out without any photo id. they even make their own signature up and the teller didnt even check. shows how good their security was. in that mail raid i had a fine stolen which i had to go to court about and cost me a bundle and other private crap. i got lucky because the police caught the guy because he was on the train with no ticket and found him with my card and cash, i didnt get it all back but some.

i got called down to the cop shop and they wouldnt even let me look at the guy due to privacy shit. they can kiss my ass he stole my shit i wanna either

option 1: kick the shit outa him till hes in a pool of blood

option 2 :see him ad take his details for future refference :wub:

I've had replacement/new cards arrive in the envelope and the pin number envelope arrive on the same day, in the same mail delivery.

Now that's farked and I can see how easily that could have happened to you Ash. I've had both envelopes arrive together on multiple occasions.

I wish you the best of luck getting your cash back.

and if you need cash for your holiday, you could just sell your new engine to me.... Cheap Cheap?

it certainly happens...

Sometimes the PIN mail comes first by about a week, but if ur on the look out its not that hard.

In the end the banks were pretty good with fraud, I had a case looked at and they gave me all the money back after their 3-4 week investigation....

Good luck ash..

Oh is there? :wub:

DAMN THEIFERS!!! !!!

Its probably involved with that knowing my luck i'd get hit with someone bad.

Been a shocking month of stuff go wrong for me, i thought it wasnt gonna get any worse till this happened.

Im thinking of pissing off the ATM card all together, and just going to over the counter stuff.

I used to do it that way until about 4 years ago for the most part. Hardly used the ATM... And this is why :wub:

    • Wheel alignment immediately. Not "when I get around to it". And further to what Duncan said - you cannot just put camber arms on and shorten them. You will introduce bump steer far in excess of what the car had with stock arms. You need adjustable tension arms and they need to be shortened also. The simplest approach is to shorten them the same % as the stock ones. This will not be correct or optimal, but it will be better than any other guess. The correct way to set the lengths of both arms is to use a properly built/set up bump steer gauge and trial and error the adjustments until you hit the camber you need and want and have minimum bump steer in the range of motion that the wheel is expected to travel. And what Duncan said about toe is also very true. And you cannot change the camber arm without also affecting toe. So when you have adjustable arms on the back of a Skyline, the car either needs to go to a talented wheel aligner (not your local tyre shop dropout), or you need to be able to do this stuff yourself at home. Guess which approach I have taken? I have built my own gear for camber, toe and bump steer measurement and I do all this on the flattest bit of concrete I have, with some shims under the tyres on one side to level the car.
    • Thought I would get some advice from others on this situation.    Relevant info: R33 GTS25t Link G4x ECU Walbro 255LPH w/ OEM FP Relay (No relay mod) Scenario: I accidentally messed up my old AVS S5 (rev.1) at the start of the year and the cars been immobilised. Also the siren BBU has completely failed; so I decided to upgrade it.  I got a newer AVS S5 (rev.2?) installed on Friday. The guy removed the old one and its immobilisers. Tried to start it; the car cranks but doesnt start.  The new one was installed and all the alarm functions seem to be working as they should; still wouldn't start Went to bed; got up on Friday morning and decided to have a look into the no start problem. Found the car completely dead.  Charged the battery; plugged it back in and found the brake lights were stuck on.  Unplugging the brake pedal switch the lights turn off. Plug it back in and theyre stuck on again. I tested the switch (continuity test and resistance); all looks good (0-1kohm).  On talking to AVS; found its because of the rubber stopper on the brake pedal; sure enough the middle of it is missing so have ordered a new one. One of those wear items; which was confusing what was going on However when I try unplugging the STOP Light fuses (under the dash and under the hood) the brake light still stays on. Should those fuses not cut the brake light circuit?  I then checked the ECU; FP Speed Error.  Testing the pump again; I can hear the relay clicking every time I switch it to ON. I unplugged the pump and put the multimeter across the plug. No continuity; im seeing 0.6V (ECU signal?) and when it switches the relay I think its like 20mA or 200mA). Not seeing 12.4V / 7-9A. As far as I know; the Fuel Pump was wired through one of the immobiliser relays on the old alarm.  He pulled some thick gauged harness out with the old alarm wiring; which looks to me like it was to bridge connections into the immobilisers? Before it got immobilised it was running just fine.  Im at a loss to why the FP is getting no voltage; I thought maybe the FP was faulty (even though I havent even done 50km on the new pump) but no voltage at the harness plug.  Questions: Could it be he didnt reconnect the fuel pump when testing it after the old alarm removal (before installing the new alarm)?  Is this a case of bridging to the brake lights instead of the fuel pump circuit? It's a bit beyond me as I dont do a lot with electrical; so have tried my best to diagnose what I think seems to make sense.  Seeking advice if theres for sure an issue with the alarm install to get him back here; or if I do infact, need an auto electrician to diagnose it. 
    • Then, shorten them by 1cm, drop the car back down and have a visual look (or even better, use a spirit level across the wheel to see if you have less camber than before. You still want something like 1.5 for road use. Alternatively, if you have adjustable rear ride height (I assume you do if you have extreme camber wear), raise the suspension back to standard height until you can get it all aligned properly. Finally, keep in mind that wear on the inside of the tyre can be for incorrect toe, not just camber
    • I know I have to get a wheel alignment but until then I just need to bring the rear tyres in a bit they're wearing to the belt on the inside and brand new on the outside edge. I did shorten the arms a bit but got it wrong now after a few klms the Slip and VDC lights come on. I'd just like to get it to a point where I can drive for another week or two before getting an alignment. I've had to pay a lot of other stuff recently so doing it myself is my only option 
    • You just need a wheel alignment after, so just set them to the same as current and drive to the shop. As there are 2 upper links it may also be worth adding adjustable upper front links at the same time; these reduce bump steer when you move the camber (note that setting those correctly takes a lot longer as you have to recheck the camber at each length of the toe arm, through a range of movement, so you could just ignore that unless the handling becomes unpredictable)
