File under silly questions:
I've just made an order from a local retailer's e-shop and elected to send the money via a bank transfer. Both myself and the retailer are in Belgium. Unfortunately, I just realized that I made the mistake of sending my payment to the retailer's IBAN, rather than domestic account number.
(As an aside, the money was immediately "transferred" from my account.)
Will this pose a problem, or can IBANs be safely used when sending a domestic bank transfer?
Thanks for your replies. It seems obvious in retrospect, but I'm relieved either way.
Regarding the BIC, the bank machine seemed to enter it for me, after I typed out the IBAN. So that's handy, I suppose.
Hm, I guess I may as well ask another question (fine, I'm new to bank transfers): as I sent the funds on Friday, should they transfer over the weekend?
