[GNC] Australian Banks and AqBANKING setup?

[Megan Tilley]

Thanks for that update, David - sadly none of those banks are the banks I
use, but I tend to agree - the banks are out for all the dosh they can
score from their customers... what's new with that situation?

Thank you for taking the time to do that research...

Me for the bank downloads from now on!!!

Thanks!
