Hi - I have sent a payment from Nationwide to a small building society by Nationwide's one-off transfer (standard, no charge). I know the clearing process of electronic funds has changed recently and so am not quite sure of what happens in the following...
If I have sent the funds this evening (Sunday night) and with it displaying as having left my account already with Monday's date on it, what is the earliest that the payee would receive the cleared funds? Nationwide says something like "should reach" the payee within 2-3 working days, but if it leaves tomorrow (Monday) and gets there tomorrow, will it still take at least 2 working days to clear? Sorry to be a bit techy, but I just want to make sure it doesn't clear before Tuesday...
Thanks for any help.
