of course its the 11th hour, ive only just decided to get it
and its fri night and i cant draw the cash out
the guy is with barclays, and im with lloyds, i dont know if faster transfer of funds works with lloyds to barclays
does anyone know, preferably does anyone with a barclays account want to earn a quid for nowt, send me your barclays account number and sort, so i can test this from my lloyds

Depending on the amount it should be instant, if its over £1200 then its not instant IIRC

Lloyds cracks me up every time it says "processing faster payment, please wait..."

I transferred £5k from Natwest to Santander just before the tax year to open an ISA. Did it about 8pm, all of it went over instantly.
I think online banking has improved over the years tbh.

I see this is sorted anyway, but the above limits are out dated. Most banks have large FPS limits now.

Barclays FPS limit £10k, Lloyds FPS limit £25k

So below 10k this will be near instant.

Takes about 2 hours for me regardless of whether its 50p or £5k.
