Commonwealth Bank has had another outage that has stopped thousands of customers from doing their online banking.
Around midday on Thursday, more than 7,000 people reported the outage, which is affecting both ATMs and online banking.
CBA put up a message on its website saying, “Some of our services are currently unavailable, and we’re working hard to fix this.”
The outage, which was the second one to hit the huge bank in less than two weeks, got a lot of complaints on social media.
“LOL, Commbank is down again!” What the hell is wrong with these people? Thank God I can open more than one account. It’s not safe to keep your money in banks, and it’s not yours, lol. Put it in cash or crypto. Someone wrote on X, “Unreal.”
“Put your stuff together.”
“Here we go again, another outage.” “Not good enough, CommBank,” stated another guy.
“Hey @CommBank, What’s going on with banking online? Someone else added, “I get this every time I try to log in to the app.” For more than an hour, this has been going on.
Commonwealth Bank is having another irritating outage, and thousands of customers can’t access their online banking (stock).
Within an hour on Thursday, Down Detector heard from as many as 7,000 customers about the outage.
“Is it down again?” “I can’t get to my app to pay for my lunch,” said the fourth person.
People in Victoria and Sydney seem to be affected by the outage, although it is thought to be happening all around the country.
Some clients said that the balances on their joint accounts with their partners were different.
A CBA spokesperson told the Daily Mail, “Some of our services were down for about an hour before they started coming back online.”
“Everything is working again.
“We’re sorry and thank our customers for being so patient.”
It comes just two weeks after the Commonwealth Bank had to move back its scheduled maintenance on a busy Saturday morning, which created a lot of trouble for customers.

One unhappy client posted on X, “I just lost my appointment with my specialist and may have to wait 6 to 8 months for another one.”
“I’ve been trying to pay all night and this morning, but I can’t get the money to move.” Another person said, “This isn’t right.”
“Really crazy.” Do your maintenance job at night. “It’s Saturday morning, and my cards aren’t working,” stated a third person.
Someone else urged the bank to do maintenance on Sundays “like normal tech companies.”
