Tesco current account - delay in payments in and out?

Options
Anyone else experiencing delays?

Its been over three hours here for both money in and out. Its normally within 5 mins and (I think) they state payments out should be made within two hours on their confirmation screen.

    I've had delays on a weekend for the last 3 weeks. Get the green '2 hours' message but payments arrive much later in the day...still same day though.

    When you log in it says

    Due to essential maintenance, faster payments in and out of your banking account will be delayed between Saturday 11 February and Sunday 12 February. All faster payments made within the timescale will appear on Sunday evening.
    We apologise for any inconvenience."

    Many thanks for that.

    That must have been there when I did the transfers! Can I blame a heavy night?

    I'm convinced I still received the 2 hour message though!

    Even on a normal weekend, payments to and from the Tesco Bank accounts are slow... Take way longer than 2 hours...

    I received the 2 hour message last week and the payment was held for a fraud check, still left the account but didn't go anywhere until I rang them later that day.
    It may sometimes seem like I can't spell, I can, I just can't type

    You would still receive the usual 2 hour message at the end of the transaction, Tesco won't change that just because there is a maintenance delay today, hence the message on the log in page! Easy to miss when you are used to just going through the motions of course!
