And it seems to me that they have a policy of using the entire 5 days for no other reason that to have the money.
>- Charges. Think about it from the merchant's point of view. You don't want to sell something to someone that doesn't have the money. So, the charges go through immediately.
That does make sense. I have no real issue with them taking the money immediately for something I buy. It's the giving of
>- Payments. Same rules as refunds.
Same response as refunds.
>- Batching. Some banks and merchants batch things and process them once per day. I've bought things late Friday night that don't show up until Tuesday.
One day would be great. Not five.
>- Transfers. Same as refunds.
Same answer as well.
>- Bill Pay. Banks generally have electronic funds transfer authorizations with other businesses. Those generally take two days or three business days to process (day one for my bank, day two for the receiver). If not, then the bank has to physically print a check and mail it.
Mine is quick as well.
>- Weekends. Most banks only process things Monday-Friday.
I'm ok with that too. This was 5 business days.
>>When I charge something against my bank card, debit or credit, my available account balance almost immediately reflects that amount. When I have money tranferred into my bank account, PayPal or a refund on a purchase, I usually will not see anything regarding that transaction from 4 to 10 days. Why is that? It makes me feel that the entire commerce system is evil and only out to screw with my money.
