In the UK, cheques

from other UK banks

take up to 7 days to clear. The main problem with cheques is that they have to be physically sent to a clearing house where all the banks get together and swap their cheques. in the uk this is in london so a cheque put into your local branch in say, glasgow, will be sent by post to london, picked up by the issuing bank and returned to their main office so it can be processed.
