CBA online banking site malfunctions

Bill payments, transfers and international money transfers affected

Commonwealth Bank of Australia (CBA) says services on its internet banking site were interrupted on Wednesday with customers unable to complete bill payments, transfers and international money transfers.

CBA told Fairfax Media it was working to resolve the issue and customers could use telephone banking or the bank's mobile website instead.

Fairfax said CBA customers were unable to use internet banking for most of Wednesday afternoon.

AAP sought comment from CBA.

Australia's big banks have suffered several systems outages over the last year, with National Australia Bank's customers experiencing two payments processing meltdowns since November.

In March, a fault with CBA's ATM system resulted in ATMs issuing more cash to customers than they had requested or had in their accounts.
