Pugly 10 Posted December 24, 2011 Is there perhaps a delay somewhere along the line with payment confirmation, perhaps a problem with the banks or BoB? The reason I ask is because I have noticed that all my purchases from yesterday afternoon have not been confirmed. All are BoB EFT. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest MacMuffin Posted December 24, 2011 Is there perhaps a delay somewhere along the line with payment confirmation, perhaps a problem with the banks or BoB? The reason I ask is because I have noticed that all my purchases from yesterday afternoon have not been confirmed. All are BoB EFT. If the payments are via Standard Bank, then yes. SBSA has a horrible banking system which can not cope over high-volume periods (such as XMAS or paydays). Where a SBSA to SBSA transaction will be instant, it will take 2 days for funds to clear. Had the same issue a few days back and it took almost 3 days for funds to clear. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

TS Ron 10 Posted December 25, 2011 The banks are extremely slow this time of the year I do not think that their electronic system can handle the amount of transactions and eft during this period. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Pugly 10 Posted December 26, 2011 Still nothing. Hope the sellers, from whom I purchased, are not under the impression I don't want to pay. [3 days now] Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Hi Grant, Unfortunately both "bob's" are on leave, maybe an email to bobPay Queries can shed some light on this.

ATA STAMP CENTRE 86 Posted December 28, 2011 All payments made from 23 dec to 27 dec can only be processed on 28 dec due to holidays-allowing a day or two from 28 dec for interbank transfers all should be up to date by tomorrow-this should apply to the bobpay as well i would think. That is the info i received from my bank. neil Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
