k from anz I started this process 18 months ago and still waiting .I'm not watching it disappear anymore I think they are trained to act dumb and misinformed because when you call and enquire about your own money they no nothing about what you are actually entitled to if you are injured at work or want to make a claim they just say you are not of age yet I wished I never rolled all my other funds into anz now and scrolling through all the other reviews I see a lot of other very unhappy people every one needs to find a better choice not smart choice because when you retire you are going to regret itSimilar opinion?

ANZ Superannuation - Endless Frustration
As as employer with all my employee's superannuation setup all I can say is I am extremely frustrated with ANZ Smart Choice Superannuation. From setting up Super accounts for Employees to basic follow up tasks and super refunds, every single experience with ANZ has been ridiculously frustrating.

ANZ smart choice super
I am Uber driver. I submit my online ANZ superannuation application last week. Then I have receive emails. In early morning I have contact with ANZ smart team to get complete my ANZ super account but unfortunately, no one interested about this. I speak to guy and he said I transfer your request and then speak to other lady and then she said hold for moment we will transfer your call to next available. They both talk to me rudely which is I am not really happy with ANZ then I disconnected the call. Terrible service from ANZ smart choice super team.

Terrible, shocking, disgraceful to say the very least
ANZ again let me down, trying to roll over super and can't get a straight answer... after calling 3 times and waiting for over 20 minutes each time, then was sheepishly told "we are waiting on unit price" whatever that means? the girl herself had no idea NOT GOOD ENOUGH

Not even one star
This service is atrocious. I submitted a form to rollover my balance. ANZ keep sending the same rollover form. When I ring up they tell me its not completed correctly, keep burdening me with its own administration failure. Not to mention putting me on waiting with Ariana Grande forever.... ANZ should not be entrusted with any public money

Poor customer service at every level
No correspondence at all from anz regarding authority to release funds to the ATO, all details were taken from my account and anz changed accounts which attracted a different ABN without notification. I had to call anz to ask why they had not released funds as the ATO kept sending overdue advice letters to be told we have changed your fund without notification at all, meanwhile debt still unpaid and attracting interest daily. Stay clear of anz smart choice and onepath super.

Disgraceful Grand Theft
ANZ clients need to be reimbursed and compensated with interest for this historical rip-off they call ANZ Smart Choice Super. I've had this fund for a bit less than 2 years with default investment options. My current balance is more than 10% less than the net contributions made to it. I saw 10% of my balance drop in the course of a weekend without any transactions being logged. This can only be explained by absolute and disgraceful behaviour. ANZ needs to be held accountable and pay compensation for this grand theft.

LOST OVER 5k IN SUPER IN 3 months. AVOID ANZ UNSMART SUPER AT ALL COSTS.
I have been with ANZ for over 20 years. These people have lost my money over 5k within 3 months. At one stage, I lost about 7k in one month. I put in 4k after 1 year and my final total is less than 2 years ago. These people do not have your best interest at heart. I am deciding to take my money elsewhere. ANZ, I want ANSWERS!

Waste of money
My father had both tpd & a death cover policy
Last year he became sick causing him to become disabled permanently.
ANZ fought paying his claim.
Then they canceled his death cover as he is terminal aswell however his life expectancies was 10 years being disabled
The stress of needing his children to support him for more then a year has lead his disease to rapidly progress now with only 2 years life expectancy he is spending all his time fighting with ANZ cos he never told them to cancel his death cover it’s just something they do if they...Read more

Kept charging Premiums AFTER telling them TWICE to stop & won't refund
1. I was transferred from one fund to another and then to a third fund in the space of three years - without my approval. They then charged Exit Fees!!
2. They conveniently "lost" my correspondence when I told them on TWO occasions to stop my Death and Perm Disability insurances (as well as the salary continuance which they did action on my first request).
3. After I had told them to cancel all insurances, my insurance was changed (without asking me) at the second change of fund to me suddenly being a "blue collar smoker" and took thousands...Read more

Crap Choice Super
Absolutely disgusting customer service... After working hard all my life I requested 80% of my super to be withdrawn... filled in forms and had to post back in this electronic age... 3 weeks later still nothing... every time you ring you get a different person & go through all the crap every time... email the original person that contacted me still nothing... found out today that they are at an overseas call centre etc... no one rings you back and expect us to ring and sit on the line for over 20 minutes... soon as I get my money will rollover the rest... Because I dont have an ANZ bank A/C it is going to take longer.

Poor service ANZ Smart Choice Super...Avoid them
This is one of the worst customer service I have ever dealt with. I have have requested for a rollover couple of weeks back and this hasn't been done yet. I regret for not checking their review before moving over to them from HESTA. My Wife's super was with HESTA and the rollover was completed with in 3 days (from the time of application). When asking ANZ why its taking so long, the answer is so lame, they are waiting for the units. In this day and age they are still so far behind. The only reason i went to ANZ super was because I got my loan w...Read more

Terrible customer service
Quick summary: I spent 3 weeks trying to buy life, TPD and income protection from ANZ Smart Choice. Customer service reps wasted lots of my time and proved very incompetent.
Context:
I have a super account with ANZ Smart Choice, as it was suggested by the employer. I decided to buy life, TPD and income protection insurance with ANZ Smart Choice just to simplify the whole structure. But it was a very bad decision.
Situation:
Within past 3 weeks I spent ~2 hours in calls with customer centre, ~1 hour filling online forms. And then I ha...Read more

ANZ “lost” my money
Do not waste your time with this super fund, I decided to open another account with Hostplus and they initiated a rollout. After a couple of weeks I checked Hostplus to see my balance, it was still at zero so I called anz to see what was going on, they told me my money had been sent to Hesta. HESTA. I have never had an account with Hesta. I guess Hesta and Hostplus sound the same. I called back to see if they can sort their mistake out and they did nothing but deny, deny, deny. Fortunately I found my money and have sorted it directly with Hesta who were very helpful. I will never use ANZ for anything again!

Shocking customer service.
Product ok. Returns good.
Just typical ANZ. No idea of how to treat customers
Not enough skilled trained staff. Either that or that just straight out lie to customers. Would rather unskilled then unethical. But unsure.
Don’t expect claim super on retirement to go smoothly. Very stressful. retirement

On hold for an hour
An hour on the phone mostly on hold. Not only is it very difficult to get through to the product manager. Usually its an hour phone call so be prepared for that. Also they don't really seem to understand what they are doing. So they handball you around the office.

Questions & Answers
Prasannaasked
Which super fund to go for i AM STUCK WITH anz?
1 answer
That depends on what you want. It could be you want to run it yourself and need an SMSF fund, or you may want a fund without annual admin fees, or lots of life insurance, or nil life insurance, or a huge range of investment choices. I like my funds to send me updates regularly like my bank account does. Make a list of what you want and then go looking. Kenmore Financial provide professional financial advise if you need further help.
Patricia Randallasked
How many days will it take for my super to be released from smart choice Super ANZ?
1 answer
A long long time well a couple of months. And every time you call and are on phone for 1 hour. They will tell you anything to get you off the phone.
Lie outright saying tonight you will have your money. Even treat Financial Advisers the same.
Very disappointed with ANZ.
