Westpac online broking crashes!

back at last!
... just in case you didn't yet notice

Got it, thanks. First thing I'm gonna do is make my watchlists and portfolios exactly the same with both brokers. Been a bit slack lately, relying totally on Westpac.
 
Westpac online broking

My Westpac share portfolio display is really screwed up where the "latest price" is reported as "the change today price"
-- not all shares are affected
-- but includes ANZ, CBA, LLC, MPL, QBE, WBC

ANZ "Last Price($)" 26.660

ANZ "the Change (Today) Price($)" +26.660

ANZ "Change (Today) Value($)" is significantly overstated

You can't blame your broker for that: After yesterday's debacle, ASX did not provide Closing Prices for some of the Financial stocks. The algo and bot traders are squealing because those figures constitute a significant base for their manipoo...

Barring another stuff-up, everything will be clean again tomorrow.

Lol, same with Comsec but is for ALL shares. Nearly fell off my perch with the stated amount of profit for the first hour of trade! If only...:eek:
 
Are people still experiencing major issues with this site? I was thinking of checking it out considering 13.1 million investors can't be wrong right?

Where I got my information from : http://au.advfn.com/newsletter/barneyc/569/everything-you-need-to-know-about-westpac

I am one of those Millions, and I'm quite happy with their website performance. It does everything I need from them, which does not include things like charts or real-time valuation of my holdings. The latter has some quirks that make valuation unusable. As I'm running my own Portfolio Manager software, all I use is the cash account balance, and that always reconciles.
No problems with orders and execution. Once an order has completely gone through, it takes only a minute and I have an email with the contract note in my inbox. (Sometimes, the order is executed at a better price than expected, which makes me believe Westpac access Chi-X or Dark Pools and pass me the advantage.)
 
their website is stuffed again
and 131331 doesn't have an option for tech support. Not even an announcement confirming that traders can't log on.
They must be employing the same IT "eggspurts" as the ABS and Centerlink.
 
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.
 
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.

I haven't had a problem since moving to NAB.
