What is my account number?
At Heritage, your account number is your Member Number.
Your account number is the same for all accounts you hold with Heritage, under one membership.
Your BSB is different for each account type you hold with Heritage. BSB stands for Bank State Branch and is a six-digit number that is commonly used to identify a bank and its associated branch in Australia.
At Heritage we use BSB codes a little differently. Rather than assigning a BSB code to each of our Branches, we assigned a BSB to each account type you can hold with us.
For example, our Simply Access Transaction Account has the BSB 638-010 and our Online Saver Savings Account has the BSB 638-260.
When we process payments into or from your Heritage account, we use the BSB you nominated to debit or credit the correct account type under your membership.
If you're unsure what your BSB or account number is, you can find it in your Mobile Banking App or Heritage Online by viewing your account information. You can also look up your BSB online or contact us for assistance.
What is my daily card spend limit?
As a general guide, the default limit for cash withdrawals at ATMs within Australia and outside of Australia, and transactions using eftpos (cheque or savings) is $1,000.
The default daily limit for purchases made online, by telephone or when using Visa (Credit) in stores is $10,000.
Further information about the daily spend limits on your card is set out in our Fees and Limits Guide.
How long will my bank to bank transfer take?
Bank to bank transfer times can vary across financial institutions depending on the type of transfer you make.
If you’re making a traditional inter-bank transfer it will take 1-3 business days. If you use NPP Faster Payments or a PayID it can be near real-time.
Transfer time into a Heritage Bank account
The fastest way to receive money into a Heritage Bank account from another financial institution is via NPP Faster Payments to a PayID or BSB and Account Number.
The New Payments Platform allows you to receive a faster payment from anyone whose financial institution is a participant and who has an eligible account. If you’re unsure if your sender can use this service, check for participating financial institutions on the NPP Website.
Alternatively, your sender could use a traditional inter-bank transfer which will take 1-3 business days from any financial institution.
Transfer time from Heritage to another bank
From the Mobile Banking App
The fastest way to transfer money from Heritage Bank to another financial institution is using NPP Faster Payments on our Mobile Banking App.
If the account you’re sending money to is eligible to receive NPP Faster payments, then you will receive an option to make the payment ‘Within 2 hours’. If you can't see this option, then the account you are sending to is not eligible to receive an NPP transfer. The transfer must go as a traditional inter-bank transfer and it could take 1-3 business days.
From Heritage Online
If you transfer money from Heritage Online on a desktop or mobile browser to another financial institution, it will take 1-3 business days to arrive.
I’ve made a mistake with my money transfer. How do I reverse it?
If we’re unable to reverse the transfer, we’ll request a trace and recall of the payment on your behalf. This could take 8 weeks for an interbank transfer or 2 weeks for a BPAY. Timeframes may vary.
If you made a mistake with an NPP Faster Payment in the Mobile Banking App, you may request for the funds to be returned by contacting Heritage, however there is no guarantee for their return. If you have simply changed your mind about your transfer then the best option is to discuss the issue with the person you paid directly. For more information on the terms on mistaken NPP Faster Payments see the NPP Terms and Conditions.
