I’m trying to transfer money to a new Zealand bank account, but the app tells me the account number is invalid. What format should the account number be? Thanks.
Probably somehow like this:
You need to ask your bank for your IBAN number. This is your international banking number and is used for receiving payments from overseas.
I had the same problem. Deleted the dashes or spaces, message still remained then I clicked on the next box (SWIFT) and success - account accepted.
Also NZ doesn’t use IBANs
Hi - I am preparing to do a transfer from my Revolut to NZ Bank account.
I know the MZ Bank will charge $25 for the incoming wire transfer, so I would like to do it only once, and no test transfers…
My question: for the bank account number you used, did you drop any digits (first 2 or 6 characters)? Was it successful?
NZD Local Account number should be 15-16 digits. This is made up of the bank code (2), branch code (4), account number (7) and suffix (2-3).
Check my last post, the issue was getting the Revolut software to accept my bank details.
Costs me $15 a time.
Takes a few days, but no complaints.
Thanks for coming back! Understood that was your original issue, and the $15 transfer charge was from the bank on the successful incoming wire.
I know what SWIFT number to use for the transfer, but I am unsure what account number I should use -
Did you use the full 15-16 digit number (inclusive of bank code and branch code) without dashes?
For example:
Account number: BB-bbbb-AAAAAAA-SSS
You used:
a)BBbbbbAAAAAAASSS
b)bbbbAAAAAAASSS
c)AAAAAAASSS
I used option (a).
Though I only have 2 “SS” digits at the end.
