Hi Marlene & welcome :wave:

The 29th is in the holiday period, but isn’t a bank holiday, so


  • Payment due on 29-Dec, means you can claim it at 4pm+ on 28-Dec if paid by BACS, with a nice notification from Monzo before 4pm on 28-Dec to claim it early
  • If you are paid using faster payments, you’ll get it when you get it without advanced notice on 29-Dec

Okay thank u, I just thought that if i usually was able to get paid early on the 28th it might have be earlier as the 28th is a holiday lol

yeah, banking only works to your advantage in this scenario when it’s a proper bank holiday, as opposed to a ‘normal’ holiday.

I also agree that every day should be a holiday - like that band :point_left: which are one of the coolest ever.

I don’t think the 28th is a bank holiday, is it?

No, it’s a normal day.

Yes the 28th is a bank holiday in northern Ireland

Is it? - the 27th is a bank holiday, but not 29th or 28th according to this source - Bank holidays | nidirect

If that source is correct and you’re due to be paid on the 29th (and via BACS) then you’ll be able to receive the payment at 4pm+ on the 28th

I’m afraid it isn’t

Sorry to burst your bubble but as @ndrw said above, you’ve just pinned it for yourself. Not for everyone else :frowning:
