    I had a similar thing between A+L and Natwest. I made a payment on Friday and it only arrived today, it normally takes a much shorter time than that.

    Maybe there was an overall problem with all banks faster payment systems this weekend?

    How much was the payment for? If over £250 it may have just gone by BACS...

    Just over £250 so could have been, but I also transferred an amount back (I miscalculated) and this also took the same amount of time so maybe something went wrong between Natwest and A&L. It doesn't matter now as the cash is in the accounts now.

    I know I am a bit over cautious, but I always send a £1 payment before I send the amt I actually want to, to make sure that the system is up and running.

    I know that this wouldn't apply if sending money to an a third party a/c, but between my own I like to ensure that the £1 has arrived first of all.
