I could be wrong, but banks usually say to allow 28 days for things to clear properly - hence the month timeframe.

Thank you. I shall sit tight and wait until Mid April then as this would be 8 weeks of payment, so more than enough time for the bank clearance

Little update: The money is still in my account and I am waiting on the letter from MBNA confirming everything. I did just check my experian credit report and it shows -

Special Instruction Indicator: Partial Settlement
Current Balance: Settled
Acount status £0
Payment Amount £0
Account header - Satisfactory - Settled

ONe down, 3 to go :j

Until you've got that letter, leave it where it is. Once its arrived and you're a month down the line pop the £ into the best savings account you can find. I would not touch it for the 6 years as these things have a habit of biting you on the bum and then you'll be right back in it

If they don't contact you again about it, have lots of fun spending it

Lol - one of the few times i've seen someone happy about a bank taking money from their account.

Glad it's sorted now and you can focus on any remaining debts and moving forward.
Well done.

Thank You I know its weird feeling happy money has left you but the worry about this whole 'where has the money gone' scenario was weird, glad its over.
