I just wondered if anyone could shed any light at what times banks systems update for BACS credits etc.

I know Natwest/RBS is at about 02.30am in the morning Monday - Friday

What about the other banks?

    LLoyds between 11:45pm - 12:15 am for credits in the week day.

    For Monday's credits, it happens on a Sunday between 12 midday -2pm

    Halifax - instant for faster payments (available balance and statement transaction online) - other types of credits used to change at 04:00 or thereabouts, but it's been a while since I've had occasion to log in at that sort of hour to see it, or at bang on 09:00 when the online banking thing seems to break down altogether for a few minutes while the database updates and thousands of people all try to log in simultaneously.

    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:

    Also, on Santander, BACS credits due on a Monday get credited at approx 4pm on the day before.

    Hi

    I have recently started a new job where I get paid by BACS into my Lloyds TSB account .

    My date this month falls on Sunday 24th October - Does anyone know when the money is likely to appear in my account?

    I hoped it would be today, but no such luck!

    Thanks

    Im with Lloyds usually if my payday falls on a weekend its in the bank the friday before , if it falls on the monday its usally available Sunday afternoon.

    Maybe your new employer will pay them for Mondays banking day ?

    Hi,

    Thanks for replying. My payday falls on the 24th of each month and this is the first time it has landed on a weekend.

    I hoped it would be in today, but I have checked and it's not in my bank.

    I am assuming they have it set up to be paid at the same time each month, but I am there only employee and so they are not sure whether I will get it on saturday or monday.

    For previous employers, if my payday has fallen on a weekend, then I have always been paid on the Friday before, so fingers crossed it will be in there tomorrow!

    Thanks

    Nina
