    Maz have you checked with the bank that you've transferred it out of? I'll tell you why. When I paid a big chunk off my ccs the money came out of my account, but then it never went anywhere until I rang up a couple of days later when I couldn't take any money out. The fraud department had noticed a big payment coming out, which normally never happens and had put a block on it. No one rang me either, so it might just be worth checking that the fraud dept hasn't got involved in it
