Dear Customer,
We are currently updating our online banking system due to recent changes.
We recently experienced a service interruption that affected the kiwibank.co.nz
website and mobile services, and we apologize if this created any
difficulties for you. We have resolved the problem, and want to assure
you that your account information was not compromised as a result of
this outage.
We know that our customers rely upon the 24 hours access to their
account information provided by Kiwi. This was not the level of service
we know you expect, and we will work hard to better serve and
communicate with you.
We want to remind you that your accounts and confidential information remain secured.
We require you to complete an account update so we can reactivate your account.

Sincerely,
Kiwi Online Banking
