If you were to rob a bank you would very quickly find yourself in court and probably in jail especially if you stole hundreds of millions of dollars, yet the Commonwealth bank has had several goes at tha Australian community me included I got caught up in the Commonwealth bank scam with super i have lodged a request for a review of the advice i recieved and have still not heard from them.
After the most recent 4 corners program it is obvious the Commonwealth bank has not learned any lessons from the super debarcle, one customer who had insurance through Cominsure had a heart attack and actually died but doctors were able to bring him back but Cominsure refused to pay his claim stating his heart attack wasnt serious enough.
There were another three similar cases shown on the progran includig one of their own employees who became too sick to work and they also refused to pay out on her insurance.
THIS IS THEFT and there are obviously some very low life creatures working for the Commonwealth bank its time for a Royal commission into the banking industry and jail time for those who are corrupt.
Yes I am angry i have been ripped off by these cretins and they are still doing it even after having been exposed in previous media stories.
Have other Forum members been ripped off by the banks too i would be interested in you posting too to warn other forum members.

Yes and there are still lots of people out there still trust the banks with their money and Super nest eggs , You also only see these story on my ABC and lots don't watch my ABC , Good work aunty .
Wander if it is possible for someone to actually walk into a Police Station and say they want to lay charges against them, Com Bank that is ???...Might get something going ??..
Insurance is an evil necessity. Regardless of the insurer its something that you have to have, but you know when it comes time to make a claim, theyll do everything possible not to pay out.

Gooday,
The only thing you need to remember is-:,
, 'BANKS' now only exist on the sides of Creeks and Rivers, the Companies that used to be Banks are all FINANCE COMPANIES, with one motive, Profit, so the Executive Staff can live in absolute Luxury whilst they work there and in their Retirement afterwards, all at Customers and Shareholders expense.
Cheers,

A bit more research on this issue showed that even after the Commonwealth bank refused to pay these peoples claims they still had the hide to take payments for the policy that they just refused to pay out on and didn't advise their customers they were taking this money out of their accounts.
This is absolutely despicable behaviour by low life cretins who call themselves human beings.
Hope they sleep well at night.

Years ago in his Awful Truth series on SBS, Michael Moore exposed similar practices by a US health insurer (Humana). In one particular case he went out to bat for a person who was in need of a life saving pancreas transplant but was denied on the basis of some flimsy technicality. Moore hired a group of actors as pallbearers and visited the office of the insurer. The patient and his pallbearers then distributed invitations to the man's funeral.

Last week I went to my local CBA Branch and closed all my accounts. They asked me why I was closing the accounts. I replied "Don't you watch TV and read the newspapers".. No comment, just received a silly look !!!
