If I have some money due to go into my bank account on Tuesday 25th is it likely it might show on the Saturday before? I know this sounds daft but money that is supposed to show in my bank account on a Monday always shows up on the Saturday and I just wondered if, because it is a bank holiday on Monday,the Tuesday money might appear on the Saturday?

Thanks in advance!

    Well unless things have changed since I worked for them, yes you should be able to get the money Saturday.

    With the business day logic though, presumably as Friday is a bank holiday and presumably a non-processing day, money due on Tuesday should appear Friday? As there are no bank working days between today and Tuesday? Or is my logic flawed?

    I am also a NatWest customer trying to figure out when my salary (due Tuesday) will go in! If I am due to get paid on a Monday in most months then it normally appears Saturday.

    I just phoned up Natwest and the chap I spoke to said that it should go in tomorrow - which would be nice as we are going away on Monday!!
