paying NatW CC from NatW OL Banking

I am amazed in this modern technological age that if I pay my balance off my natwest mastercard today using funds in my natwest step account, thru online banking, it still says "up to 4 days for payment to reach the recipient".

The £300 has left my bank account today.....pure ripoff. Whats the point in having the two of them linked on the same online banking login....

    It was explained to me by my branch that its because Natwest bank and Natwest credit cards are separate financial entities. So they put them both on the online banking for the customers' convenience, but behind the scenes Natwest "bank" have to send the money to Natwest "credit card" which is what takes the time.

    I found this out many years ago when I went into branch to apply for a credit card and they couldn't do it (they let me use one of their offices to call the Natwest credit card people instead).
