If a cheque I paid someone for goods was banked, on a Saturday

cleared by enabling the goods to be sent?

I am trying to find why the goods have not been received,

Thanks, Mick.

As far as i'm aware, banks are not open on a saturday?

Mine is, until 4 pm

What part of england are you situated?

Watford


But any transactions performed on a Saturday isn't entered until the
following Monday

So I would imagine they would put it in on Monday and have a
clearence between 3 to 7 working days.

'Clearance',sweetie. :-P

Don't look at me


So really all you might of have gained in putting a cheque in the bank on a
saturday is a couple of hours.

Saturday opening is really more for happy shoppers and people who have
difficulty getting to the bank during the week

nothing gained in clearing time
