I just logged into RBS (same group as NatWest) and saw an alert confirming that credits and direct debits due on Monday will show on Monday (not Saturday). Faster Payments will show as soon as they depart or arrive however.

If your payment is due on a bank holiday, it will be due on the last working day prior. The DWP will place the instruction for payment earlier to be with your bank before the due day. On the due day the payment will simultaneously be credited to your account as well as debited from the sender.
Basically all payments will go into your account on the day they are due. It is the sender who determines the due day, not the bank.
In that case it won't be due on the Monday so will be due on the earlier day.
But if a payment is not due until the Monday it will not be available until the next working day.
from RBS
From 13 January 2018: Any regular payments due to be paid in to your account on a Monday (or next working day after a Bank Holiday) will only be available to you from the Monday (or next working day after a Bank Holiday) and not the Saturday as before. Just make sure there’s enough money in your account to cover you for any spending over the weekend.

I'm with RBS who are part of the same group as Natwest and received a letter from them quite a while ago advising of this change about money not being available until the Monday instead of the Saturday. I'm lucky that it won't affect me too much but I bet a few people have been caught out with this.:heartpuls Mrs Marleyboy :heartpuls

If I remember correctly, my mums pension payday is on a Monday. If a payday falls on a bank holiday, she gets two weeks money the week before.
But, as has been said, it’s the DWP that decides this, not the bank.I came into this world with nothing and I've got most of it left.0 -

Granted that was RBS rather than NatWest but I have no doubt that the change in terms applies to both - I pointed out back then that I didn't think I'd received any notification from RBS and don't recall receiving anything since then, but was aware of many changes to banks' Ts & Cs applying from yesterday....0
