Faster Payments to same bank (halifax)

Just transfered a friend of mine some money over. We're both with Halifax, but does this class as a FP? I ask because normally when i transfer money using FP, i get a FP loading screen for a few seconds before it says its successful. With Halifax to Halifax transfers it doesnt appear, just says successful straight away

    It goes as an internal transfer. Shows as TFR on your online?

    Would be FPO ........ for a faster payment.

    Transfers to/from other Halifax accounts, whether in your name or not, and to/from LTSB accounts are tagged TFR on your statement.

    Normal FPs, ie to/from 'outside' organisations, are tagged either FPI or FPO.

    To answer your question, the payment will go "straight away". However, I'm not sure whether TFRs count towards your daily FPO limit (of £25K...maybe more now?), or whether they're in addition to it?

    Thanks. Yea it appears as TFR and my next question was going to be if they count towards your limit :D
  • * Your daily account limit includes:
    Bill payments
    Payments to individuals
    New standing orders
    The value of any increase in a standing order.

    £1 of debt is too much for me!

    I believe I have already checked this by attempting to go over 25K and the answer was that it didn't ('TFR' does not seem to be included)
