Transfering Money Between Banks

[Eurox]

My dad is going to put some money in my account for me tomorrow, I am with nationwide, he is with lloyds. He doesn't do internet so can he transfer it by going into his bank with my details or does he have to do it by going into my bank, thanks

I tried to transfer some money from Lloyds to the Post Office online and was not successful. In the end I went to Lloyds local branch. They were very helpful and waived the charge because of the trouble I had had. The charge was, as Chris said, £30. In my opinion quite a large chunk of money for something which should be free. As I pointed out to the teller, I could have lunch in Wetherspoons four times for that amount. Drinks extra!

Eddie, I can't agree with that - although I mainly do on-line banking, I have cheque books, I still use them from time to time. Ideal in a situation like this.

It seems like a lifetime ago that when I wanted cash I had to go to the bank and cash a cheque, yet it is less than 30 years.
