"Payments due for posting on Monday 3 February can sometimes appear in customer's accounts on Saturday or Sunday. However on this occasion they will not appear in some customer accounts until close of business on Monday 3 February.
"This is due to a delay in processing a file. The Bank would like to apologise to any customers inconvenienced."
It added that anyone who has been affected by the delay, or who needs access to the funds sooner, should contact their branch.
