As far as I know wages are lodged at the bank about 3 days prior to "Pay Day" |

It is certainly true that the BACS system, originally introduced in 1968 to automate the payment of credits and collection of debits, has a three day cycle, as did the manual process it was designed to replace. In the example of the employer paying wages, whilst he had to initiate the payment on pay day -3, his account wouldn't be hit with the debit until the actual pay day when using BACS. Under the manual system, his account was debited immediately and the money was 'lost' in the banking system for three days. |

When I was doing payroll for a local firm 15 plus years ago . The workmen got paid on a Friday each week . I did the work on the computer on a Monday and it was transferred to the bank the next day . It had to be there before noon for them to action into the individuals banks to be there for the Friday |

FPS is part of BACS which is based in Edgware, north London with a back up facility outside of London. I was systems architect for their archive, backup and recovery system back in the day. |
