"Bank of Queensland has launched the Google Map functionality on the Locate Us area of its website, making it the first Australian bank to provide this level of online service to its customers.
BOQ’s website boq.com.au now enables customers to find not only their nearest branch, the Branch Manager or Owner-Manager’s name and phone number, and the branch’s opening hours (which often include Saturdays), but also a map of the branch and the surrounding area.
In addition, the Google Maps on boq.com.au provide shopping centre overlays, which enable BOQ customers to locate exactly where in a shopping centre they can find their nearest BOQ branch.
The level of detail provided on the Google Maps on boq.com.au is unmatched by any other bank website in Australia."

As pointed out in the comments, Virgin Money have had a similar function for at least 6 months.

Please note - Virgin Money has been using Google Mapping since March 2007 for its Non Bank Manager team at http://www.virginmoney.com.au/home_loans/non-bank-manager/ with great success.

Nice one Sam - apologies, I guess for a retail bank like BoQ and us at NAB this is big news
