    Has anyone else had issues with this process recently? We sent several maintenance requests last week, following the instructions detailed in the email from the CBA. We've had no response on any of them.

    Following up today, I was told that the CBA is having 'system issues', the entire process is on hold and they can't even confirm that they've received the requests.

    Given the CBA probably had many thousands of borrowers living in what was originally investment properties, it stinks to me like a deliberate effort to ignore these requests and make an extra profit at borrowers expense.

    Submitted my "Miscellaneous Applications" through my broker last week. Still waiting for it to be processed. Meanwhile I'm eating the 0.27% rate hike :(

    Might be worth having your broker follow up about it. They won't even acknowledge that they've received the documents I sent them. Experience tells me that if I hadn't followed up, these requests would have simply disappeared, never to be processed.

    ANZ are sending out acknowledgements confirming changes from IVC to HVC to brokers as I received a number of emails today.

    Isn't it in their interest to convert to PPOR from investment? I guess if it's an investment they can charge more, but won't that result in them needing to raise more capital?
