cash machine delay

Just looked at my online bank acc and it said i had taken money out yesterday. i was so sure i hadnt and OH thought i must have and spent it. after noticing the weekend transaction before had come up with a date two days later i realised it was the money i took out on sat! very annoying i thought cash showed up straight away. im with BoS has anyone else got the same problem?

Money taken at the weekends normally shows up the next time the bank updates, typically Monday night. However, you should see your available balance decrease.

Banks close their payment schemes at different times e.g. where I work CHAPS closes at 4pm. ATMs at 5.30 and Faster payments at 9pm. Any transactions made after that time may well show up on line as 'today' but will be redated to the next business day when systems are updated overnight. Almost all banks redate weekend transactions to the next working day. These tend to be UK payment industry standards.
