Ponderosa8 1,363 Report post Posted May 8, 2017 Went into local TAB in King Street Hastings at 1.20pm today and asked to withdrawl $350 from my account, was told they didnt have that much as they had paid out a couple of other people and had just done the banking. Funny that I'd previously been in to that TAB at different times and days of the week and was given the same excuse then also.!! (NB: Its an actual TAB and not a pub-TAB). Pretty poor that you cant get this much as its not a lot is it. Who else has had this experience anywhere and what excuses did they give.?

trakdap 390 Report post Posted May 8, 2017 I must admit I didn't know the option existed until I said to the cashier I will have to go to the bank now and put it in my account and he said I can do that from here. So I suppose you may have to ask them. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

If it's the same bank it's normally instant if it's a different bank it takes longer. mooseman 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

It won't with others. eg. ANZ. Be careful with it, as banks don't really like punters. If you go looking for a loan and get a troll, you could regret these types of transactions if you have quite a few of them. Get an account with another bank from your main one for your TAB business would be my advice. bus stop, elbow, jack and 3 others 6 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

barryb 2,064 Report post Posted May 8, 2017 It is Hastings I guess. I was in Hastings today Porky, went to the Bay Espresso coffee shop on the main drag out of town, didn't expect the wheels to still be on the car when I came out. So I can understand a TAB not wanting to have cash. tonkatime, BackPoonDrinkGoon, jasonmccook1 and 1 other 4 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
