ANZ today announced a financial assistance package for customers impacted by bushfires in northern and central Queensland.
ANZ encouraged impacted customers to contact the bank to discuss their ability to access measures in the financial relief package, including:
ANZ General Manager North QLD & Northern Territory, Tony Tapsall said: “It’s devastating to see the impact of these fast-moving bushfires as they spread across Queensland. We understand from authorities that the threat is far from over with dangerous conditions expected to continue over coming days.
