Balance transfer from Barclaycard not appeared

I transferred some money to Halifax Clarity from Barclaycard earlier today. The transfer showed on my Barclaycard balance straight away but the money has not been given to Halifax Clarity.  Barclaycard sent me an email to say the transfer had all been done. I’m worried it’s been paid into someone else’s account. Does it normally take a while to be paid off in the other account?

    I was going to say that BT's regularly disappear or double count at each side immediately after the transfer. They often take a day or two to sort themselves out.

    Can take 2-3 working days for it to show. In corporate settings using things like FasterPay can be more expensive than traditional payment methods but many have forgotten that transfers used to take days (or are too young to remember the good old days)
