Ah, maybe that's why money I've just moved from Santander to Lloyds isn't showing yet.How's it going, AKA, Nutwatch? - 12 month spends to date = 3.24% of current retirement "pot" (as at end December 2025)0

Lloyds is down, other banks should be ok30+ years working in banking0

If you can bare to be in hold for over half an hour, give your sending bank a call an ask for advice. I was told to call back later this afternoon and not to try making the payment again as it'll likely go out twice
Edit - I was told it's all banks using the Faster System (by someone at Lloyds admittedly)

Thanks so much for posting this, Unrecordings; I've been trying to transfer some money from my Lloyds account to Nationwide and got the message that I should check my statement for up to two hours, to see if it will go to its destination.
As it seems to be a fault with Lloyds Faster Payments and the money hasn't actually left my account, I'm not going to bother to ring their expensive phone line at this stage.
I hope they can get their act together soon! :cool:A cunning plan, Baldrick? Whatever it was, it's got to be better than pretending to be mad; after all, who'd notice another mad person around here?.......Edmund Blackadder.0
