Hi,
Wondering if anyone can shed some light? I wrote a cheque from my account (Natwest account) does anyone know if this can go out on a Saturday? Or will it go out Monday? I notice all my direct debits that fall on the weekend go out on he next working day- is this the same for cheques

!thanks

    A cheque could debit your account on a Saturday however the transaction will be dated for Monday.

    If the payment takes you overdrawn providing you pay in cleared funds by 2.30pm on Monday the cheque will be paid.
