Make a Payment

The safest way for you to make payment to our Trust Account is for you to physically attend your Bank, and have them complete the Transfer for you, and you obtain a receipt from the Bank.

Bank Regulations require specific clearance times for a variety of bank transactions. In order to comply with the legislation we require settlement money in time to complete settlement. Here are your options:

Please be advised, Bankwest is closing its Business Division, and we have to shut down our Bankwest Accounts to move to Commonwealth Bank.  Please speak to your Conveyancer before transferring any funds to make sure they are sent to the correct live trust account. Our new account details are below

Bank Regulations require specific clearance times for a variety of bank transactions. In order to comply with the legislation, we require settlement money in time to complete settlement. Here are your options:

Option 1 PEXA KEY

Once you have our account details via the PEXA key, please physically attend the Bank in person.  Please show the Banker our account details via the PEXA key and they can make the payment from your account to ours on your behalf.

Option 2 BPAY

On the rare occasion, if you do not have PEXA key because your settlement is on paper, you can utilise our BPAY service.

Look for the distinctive BPAY logo on your settlement statement.

Log on to your Internet or mobile banking site or call your phone banking service.

Select the BPAY or bill payment option and then follow the simple instructions.

Decide the amount you’d like to pay and the payment date (at least 2 days prior to settlement date)

Option 3

RTGS through your bank branch at least 2 days prior to settlement date. Go to your local branch and request them to RTGS the money to Vicki Philipoff Settlements. This will cost approximately $35.00 but it means that if the Bank processes it immediately, the chances are we will receive your money by the next working day, as cleared funds. Please note: Your bank branch can assist you to facilitate an express transfer to our trust account in lieu of RTGS.

Option 4

Give a signed authority to your Bank or Lender to provide us with the full proceeds at settlement.  You must ensure your funds are in your account held with the lender prior to settlement date, so they can draw on them to complete the transaction.

Option 5

Post us a bank cheque payable to Vicki Philipoff Settlements Trust Account (a bank cheque is different to a personal cheque). The bank will need a least 3 working days for the cheque to be cleared after being deposited before the funds can be used for settlement.

Post to: Vicki Philipoff Settlements
Post Office Box 1800
WEST PERTH WA 6872

Option 6

You are welcome to visit us by appointment, or courier us your Bank Cheque or Personal Cheque

Payable to: Vicki Philipoff Settlements Trust Account
32 Delhi Street West Perth between the hours of 8.30a.m. To 5.00p.m. We have free parking bays available for our clients.

Please allow at least 3 working days for the funds to clear.

Option 7

From 14 November 2024 – Go in person to Commonwealth Bank (Click here for Branch Locator) and deposit a cheque payable to Vicki Philipoff Settlements Trust Account at least 5 working days prior to the due settlement date, or if you are depositing cash instead, then please allow 2 days prior to the due date. Please note that it is our office policy that no cash will be received at our office. Cash can only be deposited by you directly into our Bank Account at any Commonwealth Bank Branch. Please let us know when the deposit is made so that our Accounts Department can receipt and allocate the funds to your settlement.  Please take a photo of the cheque and deposit receipt before you deposit it, so that we can identify if it is a Bank Cheque or Personal Cheque, and either text or email us the photo.
