You can use the ‘Find a Bank’ feature in the Internet Banking and Mobile Banking App to confirm the Beneficiary Bank details. You can search by entering in the Bank Name, or other partial bank details you may have, this will then provide you with the complete details for the Bank if available. It is important to ensure you are validating the details against what the Beneficiary has.
Return to the Beneficiary field and confirm the details; if correct you can manually enter the bank details in the respective fields.
There are different reasons why your payment may not have been received, including that it's still being processed or you have entered incorrect details, such as IBAN, Account Number or Beneficiary details. Incorrect details may result in the payment being rejected by the overseas bank or deposited into an unintended person's account that matches the details.
