I have a number of standing orders that are due to go out on the 1st and 2nd of the month, all with BOS and Lloyds. To date, none of them have gone. Is that just down to the bank holiday?
I choose the rooms that I live in with care,
The windows are small and the walls almost bare,
There's only one bed and there's only one prayer;
I listen all night for your step on the stair.

Today is a BH so SOs, DDs etc will not go out.
Never associate with idiots on their own level, because, being an intelligent man, you'll try to deal with them on their level - and on their level they'll beat you every time.
Being hated by idiots is the price you pay for not being one of them.

As always, they will process all SOs (and DDs) scheduled for a non-working day on the next working day, i.e. tomorrow morning.

Clue's in the name - Bank Holiday, although Fast Payments are still good to go and some of the sexy banks use these instead of trad DDs/SOs so will still pay out on w/ends and Bank Holidays.0

I've heard they do, but how do challenger banks pay out DDs on non-working days? I thought DDs, as a scheme operated by Bacs, follow the strict working day cycle.flaneurs_lobster said:Clue's in the name - Bank Holiday, although Fast Payments are still good to go and some of the sexy banks use these instead of trad DDs/SOs so will still pay out on w/ends and Bank Holidays.0 -
They don't.
It's SO only. Not DD.1 -
