Child Tax Credits - Lloyds TSB

Wench

I read on another thread in the banking forum that CTC payments due on a monday will no longer go in just after 12pm Sunday, Mine havent, just wondering if anyone elses had/had not gone in today.

( and I should stop living week to week and relying on them going in at 12 :mad: diners gonna be fun tonight. )

Damn. I really rely on that going in on a Sunday, my own fault for not stocking up better. :mad:

Mine haven't gone through today either. I was starting to panic that my payments had been stopped, as the same thing happened around this time last year and when I contacted the tax credits people they said it was because they had sent me a letter which I did not reply to (a letter I never received!)

I just checked my bank balance and was shocked to see that mine hadn't gone in either!! They usually go in at 12pm every sunday. I tried to phone the HMRC helpline but they weren't open (they used to be open on a sunday until 8pm). I then phoned my bank (Lloyds TSB) and before I got chance to speak to an advisor, I listened to an automated message informing me that credits that were processed on a sunday afternoon are now being changed to midnight on a sunday. Bummer lol!! I got used to being paid on a sunday lol

Just to remind everyone that your TCs are due on a MONDAY.

They may have historically paid on a sunday, but they are not late if they pay it on sunday midnight.

No one said they were late, it was just how lloyds processed the payment.

I know that.

Given the amount of panic, phoning banks, poor meal preparation, relying on sunday payments etc, thought I would mention it.

Shocking isnt it, not enough food in to feed the family for the duration that tax credits are supposed to cover.

So.. 10pm is the new 12pm..

And FYI.. yes I live week to week, and yes I do rely on sunday TC, But I do still have food in, just not what I'd planned

Had toad in the hole, potatoes, carrots & gravy

Sunday Roast on monday now :P
