I’ve only been with FreeTrade since January this year and have made 2 deposits via bank transfer and they went through really quickly.
I thought, as I am making monthly deposits to FreeTrade I would follow the option to create a standing order for the 1st of the month.
My bank processed the standing order this morning at 02:00 and sent it to FT. I assumed it would process within a few hours this morning once FT were open for business at 08:00. Sadly not 
As it hadn’t arrived after 16:00 I thought I should contact FT via the in app chat. This is what James said…
Until the process is automated I think I will cancel, the standing order and go back to manual bank transfer.
