Bankwest Transaction account [General Discussion]

So you're essentially wanting people to pay your bills for you?
50 Telstra payments of 1c each costs 50c a day. For that you get 250 points. In a month that's $15 for 7 500 points. That's extremely good value!

I'm happy to give out my Telstra account number if anybody wants to pay it.

Or sign up with BW, send me the details and I'll pay my own account, you keep the points. Just top up your BW account $15 a month.

Actually, it's best to churn $2 015 a month through the account to save the $6 monthly fee.
 
Sir I will take up your offer of free points. Happy to pay you $15 for the privilege.

Anyone who wants the number of a Telstra account to pay to just PM me. Working brilliantly for 50 x 1c transactions every day right now!

I use iMacros to iterate the transactions through the MyTelstra portal on a Firefox browser. But I have the limitation that I have to click the CONTINUE button each time. I want a way to do that by set-and-forget without hanging around my computer to do the boring repetitive clicks. How to solve, do I ..
* use a different payee?
* use a different browser?
* use a scripter other than iMacros? or
* (ideally) make some changes to my iMacro script to get it to ensure it does the CONTINUE button of itself

Who's had success with 50 x 1c set-and-forget auto-transactions on MyTelstra?? Love to hear from you.

Terrific forum. Thanks to all the prior posters whose wise advice got me this far!!

Try putting the line

WAIT SECONDS=5

in your script before the bit where pushing the continue button is required. Gives it time to load the screen.

Yes, spoken with wisdom and understanding. But here is what happened. First I'll share my script:

VERSION BUILD=10.4.28.1074
SET !TIMEOUT_STEP 120
SET !ERRORIGNORE YES
TAB T=1
TAB CLOSEALLOTHERS
URL GOTO=https://www.my.telstra.com.au/myaccount/paybill#empty
TAG POS=1 TYPE=INPUT:TEL FORM=ACTION:/myaccount/payment ATTR=NAME:accountNum CONTENT=2000531757118
TAG POS=1 TYPE=INPUT:NUMBER FORM=ACTION:/myaccount/payment ATTR=NAME:amount CONTENT=0.01
TAG POS=1 TYPE=INPUT:RADIO FORM=ACTION:/myaccount/payment ATTR=NAME:paymentMethod CONTENT=YES
TAG POS=1 TYPE=INPUT:TEL FORM=ID:credit-card-payment-details ATTR=NAME:creditCardNumber CONTENT=[16 digit card no.]
TAG POS=1 TYPE=INPUT:TEL FORM=ID:credit-card-payment-details ATTR=NAME:expiryMonth CONTENT=07
TAG POS=1 TYPE=INPUT:TEL FORM=ID:credit-card-payment-details ATTR=NAME:expiryYear CONTENT=18
TAG POS=1 TYPE=INPUT:TEL FORM=ID:credit-card-payment-details ATTR=NAME:verifyCode CONTENT=937
WAIT SECONDS=5
TAG POS=1 TYPE=INPUT:SUBMIT ATTR=ID:continue-button
TAG POS=1 TYPE=A ATTR=TXT:Confirm
TAG POS=1 TYPE=A FORM=ID:accountPaymentDetails ATTR=TXT:Yes,<SP>proceed
WAIT SECONDS=3

That's the whole thing except I've redacted out the 16 digit card no. When I get to the line AFTER 'wait seconds = 5' , unless I manually select the CONTINUE button it will pack it in and go to the my-account-sorry page :(

Would you mind sharing with me the latter half of your script so I can see what is the deficiency of mine. This thorny issue has continually defeated me for months now. Well done for having worked your own way around it!

Try this:

TAG POS=1 TYPE=INPUT:TEL FORM=ID:credit-card-payment-details ATTR=NAME:verifyCode CONTENT=937
EVENT TYPE=CLICK SELECTOR="#continue-button" BUTTON=0
WAIT SECONDS=5
TAG POS=1 TYPE=A ATTR=ID:confirm-button
TAG POS=1 TYPE=A ATTR=ID:yes-proceed-unauth-payment-duplicate-button-cc
WAIT SECONDS=5
 
Try this:

TAG POS=1 TYPE=INPUT:TEL FORM=ID:credit-card-payment-details ATTR=NAME:verifyCode CONTENT=937
EVENT TYPE=CLICK SELECTOR="#continue-button" BUTTON=0
WAIT SECONDS=5
TAG POS=1 TYPE=A ATTR=ID:confirm-button
TAG POS=1 TYPE=A ATTR=ID:yes-proceed-unauth-payment-duplicate-button-cc
WAIT SECONDS=5

Does it work for you? I ran it and the following error came back:
'Error -1100: Unknown command: EVENT at line: 14'

Line 14 is: EVENT TYPE=CLICK SELECTOR="#continue-button" BUTTON=0
What could be the fix for that. Have I perhaps the wrong version of iMacros?

It's getting very intriguing. Thank You for sharing your experience so far, asg29e in Adelaide.

Yes it works for me. My version of iMacros is the Firefox add-on. I am certainly no scripting genius so beyond that I'm afraid I can't be much more help.

Good luck!
 
Try this:

TAG POS=1 TYPE=INPUT:TEL FORM=ID:credit-card-payment-details ATTR=NAME:verifyCode CONTENT=937
EVENT TYPE=CLICK SELECTOR="#continue-button" BUTTON=0
WAIT SECONDS=5
TAG POS=1 TYPE=A ATTR=ID:confirm-button
TAG POS=1 TYPE=A ATTR=ID:yes-proceed-unauth-payment-duplicate-button-cc
WAIT SECONDS=5

This is my code after all the field inputs. I just set it to 51 loops (in case one fails) and walk away - rarely a problem as long as the wifi connection is good. I use the iMacros add-on for Firefox, using a Mac.

EVENT TYPE=CLICK SELECTOR="#continue-button" BUTTON=0
WAIT SECONDS=5
EVENT TYPE=CLICK SELECTOR="#confirm-button" BUTTON=0
WAIT SECONDS=8
 
I tried a few different combinations of wait times based on a few errors I was getting, each persons may be different based on internet speed and how quickly the pages load... I use the following in firefox, which is currently running in the background :cool:

EVENT TYPE=CLICK SELECTOR="#continue-button" BUTTON=0
WAIT SECONDS=1
EVENT TYPE=CLICK SELECTOR="#confirm-button" BUTTON=0
WAIT SECONDS=1
TAG POS=1 TYPE=A ATTR=ID:yes-proceed-unauth-payment-duplicate-button-cc
WAIT SECONDS=3
 
Your URL is different to mine... I go directly to EnergyAustralia website > manage my accounts and pay from there. It still looks okay I just checked.
