Please instruct your bank to make the payment as early as possible in the day so that the funds reach our account before 12 noon, UK time. This should ensure that your funds earn interest from the day of receipt. Funds received after this time will start earning interest from the next business day. Please ensure you have received confirmation your new account has been opened before sending funds to us.
