    I now have nearly 75% of my cash in Marcus and I’m pretty happy with it.

    Requested a larger withdrawal over 2 hours ago in order of around £6k but still not received in my linked account. Had no issues before.

    Anyone else had such a delay?

    Also notice contact is only Monday to Friday which is not great.

    I withdrew £20k a couple of weeks ago to invest in a better paying fixed rate bond. I can't remember exactly how long it took - more than 2 hours, IIRC, but the money was there by the end of the day.

    Faster payments can take up to 24 hours, though are usually much much quicker. But over 2 hours wouldn't worry me.

    And it is Sunday, which may or may not be relevant.

    You won’t get anything credited to your nominated account on Sunday;...bank transfer computers work so hard during the week that they insist on taking every weekend off, from Friday night till Monday morning;...poor overworked little things.:(

    It's Sunday and I've just transferred some money in, didn't time it exactly but it's taken less than half an hour to arrive.

    Moved £6.5k out last week, transfer seemed pretty much instantaneous.

    Ha! Ha!,...what a cushy life.
    But let’s keep it secret....if the ATM’s ever find out they’re sure to demand parity. :eek:
