Take it easy bud - there is nothing to worry about :-) Speak to your bank to see if they saw any incoming transactions in case if it was blocked!

Guys,

Take it easy! Enjoy your life and do not keep checking your account balance. It is a waiting game. It can be up to 6 months or more. If you think of this all the time you will be crazy.
It is not up to us anymore. Have a nice day!

Curious to see if we receive approval around the same time! I applied in February but my bank declined the payment twice and I didn't find out until I rang the home office to see why no money had been taken.
Paid over the phone on the 10th of March.
Good luck!
