    I just checked my bank statement for a payment received to my credit card on 6th may and it left my bank account the same day - in fact though i would say it still took a few days but got backdated

    No can't pay over phone, but no point really, as would be the same.

    Oooh - lot of point. I can pay over the 'phone in seconds (except that not offered!) . Need to get the car out - round trip of 10 miles - park etc ... to get to a Branch. But may not be the same for superstar.

    However you made me look :-

    .. at the options. Hadn't realised you can do it via ATM (provided it's activated). So the practical options appear to be in Branch or bung a cheque in the post tomorrow (but only if you have a payslip - bit risky otherwise). Either will get there in time - but the latter retains funds longer.

    lol what i meant Mike was no point doing it over phone if tis only going to be the same timescale as online, - no need to be sarcy!

    You can do it at an ATM - called a bill payment, leaves the day after - so same as online again.

    Oooh - that hurts. Was under the impression you were comparing 'phone v Branch? And was just gently pointing out that not everyone is as close to a Branch as you are! :p
