Transfer between usaver and ultra accounts or between my other ubank accounts (visible when I login) without need for SMS confirmation.
Transfer between usaver and ultra accounts or between my other ubank accounts (visible when I login) without need for SMS confirmation. Every bank in the world allows intra account transfers as it is my money and I am transferring it to my own account within the same org. Really what security is this adding other than inconvenience.

omg this is critical!!!!! I have bank accounts with other bank and UBank is the only one that I have to have my phone on me to do the SMS confirmation, I thought about creating a joint bank account with them but if everytime my partner and I try and transfer money across internal accounts then we are going to be inundated with messages!

Additionally, if you're overseas and not using your sim card, how can you get the confirmation code? It just makes using this bank useless for travelling

This is the bank that insists on requiring an SMS code to transfer between accounts of the same user. Which up and coming manager came up with this idea that no other bank has?

UBank you have done this now and it is a game changer!
(Should it have always been this way? Well, yes, but I'm super glad we've got this now anyway) -

As many others have stated, this feature is incredibly annoying when travelling overseas. Additionally, the fact that a code is needed to transfer money internally between two linked accounts (i.e. money is not being transferred to a third party) is also utterly ridiculous and over the top.

Seriously!!! Im starting to wonder if i made the right choice joining this bank now that i see how many basic features arent easily accessible to your customers! Not Osko or PayID, no quick balance, no easy way to change card pin and now this thread has made me realise you need SMS confirmation nist to transfer between INTERNAL accounts!!!!??? This is not ok, these are basic features many other banks have provided for free for a long long time!!

I'm about to travel to the US & will be getting US SIM cards for our phones. I need the ability to transfer funds while I'm away. This SMS security feature is over the top & needs removing. Can I change the mobile number on my account temporarily? I doubt it!

Please bring this function in line with other banks asap. If someone has access to your device or ubank login, then securing transfers out are useful, while adding inconvenience to transfers between ubank accounts is no help whatsover.

Yes, please make this an on/off switchable option. I regularly transfer between accounts for family bill payments and this is a real pain. Made worse when I turned on push notifications on my ipad app, but didnt realise it stopped sms's being sent to my phone... so a few times missed getting the security code when not near the ipad! In the android app there seems to be no notification if you've turned push to ON elsewhere.
