Personal banking

  • When you make a purchase with your Visa card, the merchant will send an authorisation request. This places a temporary hold on the funds in your account and ensures there are enough funds available. This hold can last up to five business days while the transaction is being finalised.

    You may see this request in your transaction listings in internet banking or the MyCOAST app.

    Once the transaction is complete, the funds will be debited from your account, and the merchant’s details will appear in your transaction history.

  • A pending or uncleared transaction can only be cancelled if the merchant issues a pre-authorisation release confirming they will not debit the funds. Since the merchant controls the authorisation of the funds, we cannot release them without their consent.

    If you believe a pending transaction is unauthorised, we can help you dispute the transaction after the funds are debited from your account.
