Halifax and Lloyds fast payments (FB) service on the blink

Seems a bit more than a Faster Payment problem. We sent pay to staff by BACS to arrive today and all staff who bank with Lloyds & Halifax had their pay returned to our bank and not credited. Those who bank elsewhere had no problems.
thats interesting to learn. how will the staff get paid then???Trinidad - The hottest place to go0 -

thanks for the update, In my telephone call early this morning, I was advised to try mid morning, still no changeTrinidad - The hottest place to go0 -
Would be great if the OP could update the title to include Lloyds as well.
Also this sounds like it could be as big as the RBS debacle - hopefully one of the MSE team could start working on it. I don't want to go through the halle of being charged by LTSB/others because paymetns don't happen because I am unable to redeposit my funds that have been stozed elsewhere for the weekend.
Hello Michaels,
I tried changing the title, but could the site did not allow me to make any changes, sorry.
I did enquire with Halifax if I experience any charges with another provider, what I should do, and was advised to contact them back
update,
with a little help from a fellow MSE I changed the title for youTrinidad - The hottest place to go0 -
I have a SO from LTSB to Halifax which went through last night sometime. And when transferring same amount back to LTSB this morning no problems. With me then the problem seems to be with LTSB <----> different banking institutions.
thanks for the respons edwardTrinidad - The hottest place to go0 -

We are waiting to be told what is going to happen and whether or not LBG will recall the earlier payments or whether we need to try and send a new one.0 -

fingers cross, As this is the first payment afterChristmas, I bet this is more important than most for the staff team, it would be interesting to know what has caused thisTrinidad - The hottest place to go0 -

Even under FP a transfer is allowed to take until the end of the next working day. Strange, but them's the rules. The 2 hours is just a guide,0 -
