Balance Transfer - Amounts not cleared?

On Tuesday afternoon I did a balance transfer from a virgin card to a Barclaycard. On Wednesday morning, I transferred a Tescos card to a Barclaycard. Both the original cards don't show that the balance has been transferred. How long should it take?

Many thanks.

    I wouldn't worry yet - it can take several days. And then once the payments have arrived both the original cards need to update your online accounts.

    It's only been 3 days since the Virgin transfer and 2 since the Tesco one.
