Natwest

I wanted to pay someone who is a saved payee £2000 so I went and used my laptop instead of the mobile app (limit £250 a day). As I proceeded the payment date was set at TUE 20th DEC and today is the SUN 18th. I wasn't able to change it to today's date why is this????? Time was 12pm.

    You can make a payment of more than £250 via the mobile app to someone you've paid before. The £250 limit is for new payees you set up using the app.

    As far a Natwest is concerned weekends don't exist. The day after Friday, 16h December is Monday, 19th December. That's why you can't make a payment dated Sunday, 18th December. Not sure why they changed your payment date to 20th instead of 19th.
  • Have you tried to delete the payment and then set it back up?

    I guess you make sense about that. Say if I wanted to send another payment tomorrow Monday 19th would that would be straight away right??

    In my experience (with the Royal Bank) they still go through as faster payments. But that would mean if I did want to make it a future date it wouldn't work.. hmm. Sorry, I can't remember the exact scenario.
