Debit card payments delayed

Last Weds and Thurs i made a few contactless payments to different companies. Couple of shops and a supermarket. All showed as pending. I've made these purchases before to the same shops and the money is taken from my account by Monday morning.
However ive noticed all 3 payments are still pending. Seems odd as its nearly a week since the transactions were made, and seems strange how all 3 are still pending when normally they are taken by the end of the weekend.
Any reason for this delay? As i said 1 payment wouldn't concern me as things get delayed, but all 3 seems odd

Yes, I have a Visa debit card transaction pending from Friday. I use this vendor regularly and normally you can rely on it being taken the next working day.0

Interesting, wonder if there is an issue with the merchants processing company (dunno what they call them?), and it just happens all 3 of my transactions (and yours) use them.0 -
I noticed something similar with my Visa credit card transactions recently. Several done on 20th, 21st & 22nd were still pending until yesterday 26th.0
