    HI,

    I don't think anyone can answer that question because it's like asking how long is a piece of string. Hopefully it will be done soon, just keep checking your journal is all i can advise.

    Hi @jojo7777. It can take up to a week to clear on their system but it's important to remember that budgeting advances are discretionary and there's no guarantee you'll be accepted for one. If you give them a call they should be able to tell you if an advance is available for you.

    Oh didn’t realise that. I’m viewing the site on my mobile and it doesn’t show dates :/

    That's the only issue with mobiles. I usually find the further you go down the pages the older the threads.

    Yes back on my desktop now. Not going to lie using a mobile is hard work on some sites, especially as you can tell from my other thread, you cannot see the dates!
