I've recently paid funds into my account - why isn't it showing on my balance?

Depending on the type of funds you've paid into your account, it may take some time for it to appear on your account. Cheques can take up to five working days to clear and ten working days if paid into a Post Office. Standing orders and direct debits can take up to one working day to clear if paid in on a non-working day (such as weekends, bank holidays).
