I was given a 3V prepaid Visa card the way that made the most sense to use was use the option to transfer the funds to my Lloyds TSB bank account even though this involved taking a hit on a transfer fee. From the 3V end everything appeared to work fine but it didn't show up in my bank. I allowed a week because I have experience delays in some transactions going through particularly at weekends . Nearly two weeks later the money still hasn't shown up in my bank account, triple checked the bank account IBAN number it was correct so it appears money is somewhere in virtual space.

The amount involved is fairly trivial and I really can't be bother chasing it up but anything going wrong to do with bank accounts needs investigating .. ho-humm.
