    Hi there.
    I changed from the Natwest to Yorkshire too and my child benefit is due on a Monday. I always receive it in my bank account on the Saturday morning just as I would have done with the Natwest.
    Hope this puts your mind at ease x
  • Keep in mind that as the payment is not due until Monday, you have no recourse if ever it does not appear until then. You need to change your billing dates to make sure this does not happen.
