Incorrect bank details

[pamelaharris85]

Where do surplus settlement funds go if the vendor’s account details are incorrect? In this case vendor has provided account details for an account that was to be closed on settlement (they did not know the account would be closed - it was an offset). Bendigo & Adelaide Bank are saying money should have gone to solicitor, solicitor doesn’t have the money and have spoken to PEXA who are saying funds are being held by the bank. It appears to be going around in circles. The matter is urgent as vendor is buying another property with settlement in 2 days and requires money to facilitate the purchase.

Generally PEXA will send you (although the process has changed now) a Corrective Payment Instruction if the funds have not hit the said destination account. 

New process - Log into PEXA and see if you have any corrective payment instructions on the left hand side menu.  (If you do fill this out and send it back to PEXA asap). 

You can complete the Corrective Payment Instruction and send it back to PEXA who then generally redirect the funds. 

This can take some time though. 

Good luck!

Hi @pamelaharris85 ,

Thanks for your question. 

@BallaratConveyancingis correct with their answer for this one, the correctives payement process has changed and is now completed within the platform.
Your Subscriber Manager will be able to see the Corrective Payments tab on the left hand side of their dashboard.

If there is an incorrect payment for you to action, a notification will be displayed to users of the responsible subscriber informing them that action is required on their part to correct the payment particulars

Once this has been completed on your end, PEXA will then be able to successfully correct these instructions to its intended recipient. 

Please note, normal banking times still apply for these payments. 

We also have a guide on how to complete Corrective Payments which you can find in our help centre here (https://community.pexa.com.au/t5/Help-Centre/Corrective-Payments-Help-Centre/ba-p/16789)

Please let me know if I can help further. 

Regards, 

Tom

It happens sometimes, and I’m sure that you’ll be soon notified about the issue. Am I the only person that is annoyed because of how high the taxes are today? I believe that if our taxes are going to increase even more, then I won’t even be able to buy anything for myself. All my life, I’ve been counting taxes by myself, and I never knew anything about pay stub generators or anything like that. A good friend of mine once told me that I should check out a website https://www.thepaystubs.com/ that had a pay stub generator. I started to use it, and It saved me a lot of time, and I’m still using it till now. I think that it is essential for you to use it and for everyone else too.
