HSBC Account

Options
New to this bank, but my boss paid in a cheque (I know, old school) on Friday and it hasn't appeared on the account even as pending.

With Nationwide, it usually shows up straightaway. Is this anything to be concerned about at the moment?

    How did your boss pay a cheque into your account? Does he/she have your paying-in slips or your debit card to make deposits into your account?

    I gave him my details and he gave me the slip he was handed, but the amount has just appeared in my account. So all is fine. I just assumed it would happen straightaway as with my Nationwide account.

    My money is on that it was probably deposited after 3pm on Friday, so it probably wasn't actioned until today, otherwise I'm not sure - never banked a cheque with HSBC the old-fashioned way before.
