    good news... let's hope everyone gets their money soon
    let everyone know when you do and when you transfered it
  • just arrived home, did anyone see the channel 4 news. I talked about the forum, did they use the footage?
    If you want to be rich, never, ever have kids ;)
  • This is really good news!!!! Still no sign of my BACS from Tuesday morning to HSBC, but I can wait!!
  • YES - ME TOO !! My £35k BACs transfer from Monday 6th has just gone into my linked account !!
  • It's simple really irrespective of assurances and re-assurances - nobody (BACS/CHAPS or those that haven't attempted a transfer) is out of the woods until we are able to put our hands on OUR cash.

    Here is an interesting thought for those who believe in the backlog.
    What Backlog? The
    [SIZE=-1]Bank Automated Clearing System (BACS) is as the name suggested automated which means no human interactivity required. All ING has to do is to release the BACS / CHAPS transactions into the global banking network and Robert is your father's brother - things will be processed as per norm within the usual timescales.

    Call me old fashioned but I think they are using this to fob people off as most people will believe it as a plausable reason of why they have not received their money.

    Should have typed a shorter message and I might have been first :) -there were no other success stories posted when I started typing! :)

    Seriously, it does look like the floodgates are open. I haven't posted in this thread before because I thought they would... it just wasn't very pleasant not knowing so I hope everyone who is still waiting will feel better now!

    This is NOT true, all payments must be manually checked
