    I can confirm that I’ve had no issues logging on from Durban.

    So transfers are immediate faster payments?

    Have been in my experience; though all faster payments are "within 2 hours" rather than immediate, as it is everywhere.

    Transfers are rarely immediate but usually within the hour.

    Very easy to use although a downside is not being able to set up future payments.

    Thanks for confirming - a bit like Tesco's internet saver then in terms of transfers taking 5 to 30 minutes?

    Can anyone confirm whether there are any daily transfer limits (like the £10,000 for Tesco a/c which was a pain)? I can't see any anywhere, but I don't want a nasty surprise when I need to transfer a larger amount at once. Thanks!

    I transferred some money in yesterday. Took about ten minutes before I could see it in there.

    Did you need to log out of Marcus and then log back in again to see your deposit?

    I don't think so because I was flipping between tabs on the same browser and as far as I recall didn't logout. Again, as far as I recall, I did need to click again on "view your account" or whatever it is, it didn't auto refresh but I might be mistaken about that. I wouldn't swear to it in court, put it that way.
