Question about debit card transaction?

Candy53

Hi,

I'm sorry if this is the wrong place to post but can't find anywhere else, but quick question.

Once a debit card payment has left an account, does it then immediately show up on the recipients account?

So, if I check my account say on Thursday morning at 9am, and my payment has debited that day, the recipient will get the payment that morning?


Thanks,
Candy.

Only on bank transfers

Debit cards usually take a couple days to clear similar to credit cards

Why do you ask?

Have you got a retailer saying they cannot find your transaction?

No, I paid my rent with my debit card online on the Bank Holiday, so I just needed to know that when the payment is debited, it will go immediately into landlords account, that's all.


Thanks for replying,

when you say that you paid your rent online using a debit card . I assume a Council or Housing Association using Allpay or A&L Billpay

so next day , perhaps backdated to today as far as your bank is concerned

If you card is enrolled in "verified by Visa" etc - you can check online

Today - as far as your landlord is concerned - but a day later as far as you are concerned

Yes, it is HA, but it is done through Sage.

The reason I'm worried apart from the Bank Holiday, is because Sage never sent me a confirmation email this time for some reason, but I rang the bank and they said an authorisation was asked for, and they gave me the number.

So just to make sure it goes out, I'l ring bank to check on Thursday. Emailed Sage asking why no confirmation of payment, but they wouldn't help me.


Thanks,
