I usually get it paid in on Thursdays but did not have any last Thursday and do not have any today either. Both these Thursdays were normal working days I think, so before i call them up raving like a banshee, have I missed something?
Do they save it up then give you 2 lots in one go for new year or something?
Thing is, we rely on it and last week didn'thave any bread or milk because of it and now DH has limped the car to work, expecting the monay to be there at the cash point so he can get home and nothing.

Have not called DH yet, will do in a sec, but the woman at the bank said it was paid on a different day, not Thursdays, despite those days regular days. I was not informed otherwise and as a result have incurred at least £30 charges, again.

Yes, Cold, 'tis pants!!
