If your benefits get paid on a Monday, and you bank with Santander, can you please tell me when they hit your account? Thanks.
I know Natwest/RBS/Halifax is usually Saturday, Lloyds is Sunday, but not sure about Santander?

Check your statements.....Forums can be/are a good guide to entitlement and it is good practice to back it up with clarification from the relevant department/specialist with written confirmation to safeguard yourself.0

You should receive your payment on the Monday.
I bank with Santander and I receive my CB on the Monday, which is the same time they pay it, straightaway in other words, if that makes any sense lol
Sorry,just a quick edit lol..I have just realised that it actually goes in on Sunday night at midnight, or thereafter, ready for you to withdraw funds on the Monday..I asked for fork 'andles(handles for forks) not four candles! God Bless The Two Ronnies :T0 -
Check your statements.....
Firstly, even if it's available early, it shows Monday's date on the statements.
Secondly, it'll be my first tax credits payment Ito a Santander account since switching from Lloyds TSB, so I was just curious, as my payment last week was sent to the wrong account (my old one which is now closed) so I just wanted to make sure I shouldn't have had it by now0 -

Santander (usually) puts the credits for Monday into your account, some time between 10 and 11 p.m.on Sunday night.0

Mine always hit my account sunday evening at around 11pm. you can't see which benefit it is but the avaliable balance always goes up. At around 6am it says on the statement weather it's Tax credits, housing benefit Jsa etc....0 -
Mine is always anytime between 10pm and midnight on the Sunday with the average time being about 10.25......I have had on occasions, had it paid in and available on a Saturday (at one point, it was virtually every weekend but this changed around a year ago and it has only done so a couple of times since then).
This is Santander.We made it! All three boys have graduated, it's been hard work but it shows there is a possibility of a chance of normal (ish) life after a diagnosis (or two) of ASD. It's not been the easiest route but I am so glad I ignored everything and everyone and did my own therapies with them.
Eldests' EDS diagnosis 4.5.10, mine 13.1.11 eekk - now having fun and games as a wheelchair user.0
