Hi,
Did a payment to vanquis on saturday through barclays, seems to be taking forever. How long does it usually take to show on vanquis site?
Thanks

Easier to just have a direct debit set up through them. Sometimes it's cleared the same day, other times it's taken 5 working days.Credit 'Score' - Don't buy the credit 'score' that Experian, Equifax and Noddle want to sell you. It's an arbitrary number that means nothing when it comes to applying for credit.
ALWAYS HAVE A DIRECT DEBIT SET UP FOR THE MINIMUM PAYMENT ON YOUR CREDIT CARDS, REGARDLESS OF WHETHER YOU PLAN TO LOGIN AND PAY EACH MONTH.0 -

It will clear by then. Vanquis has taken a double payment from me before now (I cleared via Debit Card, they took the direct debit anyway). So just be careful that you have enough funds in your bank.Credit 'Score' - Don't buy the credit 'score' that Experian, Equifax and Noddle want to sell you.

I make payments through HSBC online banking, I agree with previous posters ie around 3 working days.
Remember Monday was a bank holiday. While it'll take several days to show it will be credited from the payment date.0
