    I have set up my CF A/C and am trying to transfer money from AIB A/C to CF.
    I added CF as a payee to my AIB A/C & transferred X money. When I went to CF A/C it says pending - Is this normally what happens or am I doing something wrong. How do u know when the funds are in the CF A/C

    All help appreciated

    There is a Sticky for FAQ at the top of the page and also been a good few queries about Currency Fair before, if you do a forum search it should lead you to what you want, here is the page from the FAQ, hope it helps.

    yeah this is normal. I use CF a lot and once I do the transfer from my bank account usually it appears in my CF A/C within one business day. Then once you do the exchange and transfer it out it usually takes one business day again to appear in the final A/C.

    Just as a tip unless you are ultra desperate for the money I wouldn't bother with the priority transfer. the longest it has ever taken for me was just over a day for it to appear in the final A/C.

    Really cant recommend CF enough to everyone. Coming home for the Christmas it has been an absolute lifesaver. Even though I had to do several transfers over the last few weeks (Christmas excess and all that!!) it has still cost me less than transferring one big lump sum through the banks!

    They'll send you an email once the funds clear.

    Normally takes 24 hours to clear, but it took 3 days for me once so I wouldn't worry about it, especially with this time of year.
