Thanks. Can I suggest that the title of this thread be amended to read (WITHDRAWN) so that people who got the e-mail don't waste time trawling through the thread.

I have a DD being taken on 21 July which should be OK. Question is can I still top up by Faster Payments up to 24th?

If I have read the blurb correctly, that should be a 'yes'

Hope so anyway, as that is the position I am in.

I applied yesterday evening with the DD to be taken on 28th July. Does anyone know if this will be okay?

Thanks.

.....Think that means you can still send a topup cheque?
...and if you can send a topup check can you still do an online transfer 'til then?

Why not call them to find out conclusively, rather than posting here and speculating wildly? It's within office hours now after all.

Please come back and enlighten us once you know the answer
