    Whats an FP? I never thought of it that way regarding Friday 2nd, I thought it was a bank holiday. Anyway, it was a 100% genuine oversight on my part and I cannot change it now, I'll just have to keep my fingers crossed that what they said on the phone was correct!

    Faster Payment, ie a payment generated from your current account, either via online or telephone banking using sort code, collection account number, and reference (ie 16 digit card number).

    Nope, only the 1st was a Bank Holiday.
