A perfect reply in my book. Though he will be lucky to find an instant withdrawal retail bank account that gets anywhere near CSH2 at the moment. Chip does fairly well though, for me.
I would add that many investing platforms take 2-3 days to get the money accross to a current account even where cash is being withdrawn.
Many platforms claim that it is just the way banking transfers work. Three days is the bank transfer max.
My experience is that most of the time bank transfers for accounts between retail banks are instant.
I think this is something platforms like Invest Engine need to look at.
This is why my emergency cash is never on a platform like IE.
