anyway to automate moving of money (rams/nab)

Basicly i had a loan with rams now NAB an dam in the process of moving all direct debits from rams into NAB but is there a way i can set up soon as account is at xxxx move everything else to account xxx.

Basicy what im trying to do is autoinvest money into pearler keep a buffer in my account lets say 3 months worth rest goes into pearler, i can not direct my pay into pearler as its not a bank as such and well HR girls were confused so i said ill just do it on my end.

At moment i log in once a fortnight move all money above xxx buffer into pearler account which then will autoinvest it.

    You can certainly establish an automatic account sweep to another NAB account, but for where you want the funds to go I'd just do it yourself on a regular basis.

    When you do it, I'd suggest double-checking your inputs because your post here is riddled with errors.

    I've just read that twice and still haven't got a frickin' clue what it's all about.
    And who are these HR girls, it sounds quite fascinating?

    • Maybe Heavy Rigid (HR class) heavy vehicle drivers?

    As are this thread's readers. I know that xxxx is a beer, but that's it.

  • So OP needs to be clear the bank is not responsible for transferring direct debits to a different bank.

    As a lesson learnt, you could do what I do, set up direct debit to a transaction bank account, which you transfer money into from your offset/pearler. Up to you where you deposit your salary into - I also put it into a saving account of a bank not tied to my loan.

  • You can setup a 'sweep' transaction. Usually used to empty the balance of an account to zero on a schedule e.g. every week/fortnight.

    Best way is to have your '$xxxx' minimum balance in a separate account, and then it stays separate. Treat it like savings. Then, your normal transaction account receives wages and pays bills, and get the bank to setup the autosweep as a transfer to the BSB/account no. of your Pearler account.

    I've not seen a sweep transaction setup to leave a remainder balance, but ask a bank staff member if that's possible. Then you don't need a separate savings account.

  • If you can share your logon details, id be happy to process some transfers ;)
