There's an encumbrance on my account and I can't register for exams. I PAID two weeks ago. My exams start Monday and Allianz are sending me reminders to pay something I already paid. This is unacceptable.

That's a really stressful situation — an exam-week encumbrance with payment already made shouldn't be sitting on your account. Encumbrances normally clear within 2-3 working days of payment confirmation, but if there's a mismatch on the reference or the payment routed via an unusual channel, it can hang [1]. I can't see your account from here, so I'd like to escalate this directly to the finance team with priority — they can verify your payment against the encumbrance and lift it today if it checks out. OK to send it on?

YES PLEASE this is urgent

Hi Wei Jun,
I hear you — an encumbrance still blocking you 2 weeks after payment is not OK, and we'll get this off your account today.
To match your payment to the right invoice, can you reply with:
1. The payment reference / transaction ID
2. The date and amount paid
3. The bank or channel you paid through (FPX, manual transfer, etc.)
If the payment is in our system but landed on the wrong invoice, we'll re-allocate it and lift the encumbrance within the same business day. If the payment hasn't reached us yet (which can happen with FPX during weekends), I'll let you know what the trace process looks like.
I've flagged this as urgent given your exam schedule — you'll hear back from me before end of day.
Best,
Monash Finance Helpdesk
