Westpac online broking - any problems?

SOME Commsec fees have gone down , but mostly to lure the small players , as a 'nibbler ' more likely to buy a $1,000 parcel than a $10,000 one , that works for me most of the time , ( but that is not what most investors prefer , they look at the accumulated brokerage and go pale )
 
Westpac has serious data issues...
For the price one pays for broking, this is an absolute joke.
Movers list shows higher or lower, but different and incorrect percentages! ?

Course of sales data lately on many stocks has been delayed by up to 20 minutes also.

I found a simple solution to overcoming Westpac's constant problems with their data - I changed to NAB which has both the Trader and Viewpoint platforms. Haven't had a problem since.
 
Westpac trading app currently showing all stocks at $0.00 in portfolio and watchlists.

All stock pages are "invalid stocks" with no market depth data, no charts. Announcements and alerts are working though.

Some problems were apparent yesterday around 6pm, then was working again.

Was working this morning until around 9:45am

NOT HAPPY JAN.
Not quite ready to start on NAB but have started the process...
 
Same problem on Westpac Trading website.
Logged in ok, but holdings at $0.00
Went to click on something else and got booted off, with a maintenance page coming up.

Westpac, now on my never to be traded list, and will be finalising move to NAB post haste.
 
Any problems?
A Clayton's broker... the broker you have when you don't want to trade.
Oh, you can still place manual trades over the phone if you want to wait on hold forever...
