For many years SWSCU’s automated Telephone Banking platform served as an efficient way for members to check their balances and transfer money between accounts from the convenience of their landline or mobile phone device.   Due to a decision by SWSCU’s provider, this service will be discontinued for all of their customers in Australia. This means effective from the 31st of March 2024 as a consequence SWSCU members will no longer have access to Telephone Banking services.   We understand that this may cause some inconvenience for some members, but there is some good news. Technology has come a long way since Telephone Banking was first introduced and SWSCU have endeavoured to stay current with member trends and demands. SWSCU has added new services to their digital banking offerings such as the new SWSCU App which includes How I Spend and Savings Goals not to mention the inclusion of Digital Wallets via provider such as Apple, Samsung and Android.   Members who are actively using Telephone Banking are asked to register for an alternative service before 31st March 2024 to prevent disruption to their banking.

Dear member, SWSCU has moved to enable SMS One Time Passwords (OTP) for all members that use internet banking. Using an OTP will enhance the security of your online transactions, by providing an additional layer of authentication. When you log in to your internet banking account or initiate a transaction, you will be prompted to enter the OTP. The OTP is simply generated by clicking the 'Get OTP SMS' button, which will generate a 6 digit code via SMS to your preferred mobile number which you have previously provided to SWSCU. Once the OTP is entered correctly, you will be granted access to your internet banking account. 

As of 23rd February 2023, SWSCU will be making changes to some of our account names. Rest assured the access, features and functionality that you have come to know will remain the same.   Product Previous Account Name New Account Name S1 General Savings Account Everyday Account S2 Savings Account Card Free Account S4 Budget Savings Account Budget Account S6 Teenager Savings Teenager Account S7 7 Day Notice Goal Account S8 Super Saver Junior Account Changes to account names Effective the 23rd of February 2023.
