Does anyone know what time HSBC update their systems?

Santander seems to be at 11pm the day before the credit is due - for example, OH gets paid weekly each Friday. However, upon logging in at 11.30pm last night his money was in and was able to use his card online. A&L used to be anytime between 1am and 3am so this is a definite improvement - about the one thing Santander managed to get right :rotfl:

I bank with Santander and sometimes my salary showed up as early as 9pm the day before payday however, tonight it just went in at 01.20am - so I think it depends on the BACS system and how many people are being paid on the same day as you i.e. today payday before Christmas (peak times). So with my experience with Santander this can vary between 9pm - 1.20am. But I have checked before and my wages haven't showed up at 2am. So I would say between 9pm - 3am, but with my experience it's usually around or before midnight.

It's the forum's fault really. There needs to be some way to signal that a thread is not actually a current one. Perhaps if threads were shown by #of posts in last [fixed period] -say [>10 in last week?]? That way the occasional thread like this that gets revived would only 'pop up' after that minimum # of fresh posts had been added.

You could make the ordering quite sophisticated but I don't think MSE is particularly interested or technically minded about things (otherwise many sensible changes would have appeared down the years and the current site wouldn't still look like (well) a 'bulletin board'!
