The bank holiday “will allow individuals, businesses and other organisations to pay their respects to Her Majesty and commemorate Her reign, while marking the final day of the period of national mourning,” the government said.

Following confirmation of the date of the funeral, organisations were quick to announce what their plans were for Monday 19 September.

Here’s a round-up of what’s happening:

Banks and building societies

UK Finance said bank and building society branches will be closed but most telephone banking and online services will be open like a normal bank holiday.

The Building Societies Association, added: “We would recommend that building society customers plan accordingly and visit branches on alternative days.”

Salary payments

Whether you’re paid weekly or monthly, UK Finance said as with other bank holidays, such payments won’t be made on Monday 19 September.

It said: “Payments due on this date should instead appear in your account no later than the following day, Tuesday 20 September. On other bank holidays, some employers choose to make salary payments earlier than normal. Please speak to your employer if you have any questions regarding your salary payment”.

Direct debits, standing orders, cheques and faster payments

Direct debits and standing orders will not be processed on Monday 19 September. UK Finance said such payments should be processed no later than the following day, Tuesday 20 September.

Faster payments will continue to operate 24/7 while cheques will take an extra day to clear.

CHAPS and home moving/completions

The same-day cash settlement system (CHAPS) which is often used for high-value and time-critical payments, such as house purchases, will be closed, opening on Tuesday 20 September.

UK Finance said: “This includes where CHAPS payments are used for house purchase completions. Other organisations involved in the moving process may also be closed on Monday 19 September. Consumers due to move on 19 September should get in touch with relevant organisations such as their mortgage provider, conveyancer, removal firm etc. to understand the impact of the additional bank holiday on their planned move”.

Benefit payments

The Department for Work and Pensions (DWP) has put in place arrangements to ensure all benefits and credits that were due to be paid on Monday 19 September are credited to accounts by Friday 16 September, ahead of the bank holiday.

The full list of payments affected are:

• Attendance Allowance

Food banks

Emma Revie, chief executive of the Trussell Trust, said: “Food banks in our network run sessions on different days and at different times. Food banks are best placed to make the right decision for their communities and will ensure everyone who needs support can access it as they do with every bank holiday. As each food bank is an independent charity, we’d encourage people who need support to contact their local food bank to check their opening hours.”

Supermarkets and retail

Many different retailers will be closing, with some convenience stores open for a few hours to cater for those who will be queuing to see the Queen lying in State.

Here’s what each one is doing:

“It is right that we make changes to our operational arrangements on the day of the funeral to ensure our colleagues across our stores and distribution network can participate, whilst supporting customers as they show their respects too.

On Monday 19 September, in order for our colleagues to pay their respects, our large stores will be closed all day and our Express stores will remain closed until 5pm.”

Online orders scheduled for Monday won’t be fulfilled so customers will need to reschedule their slot for another day.

Some central London and Windsor Tesco Express stores will be open throughout the day for customers attending the funeral, but they will close at 10pm. Staff who choose to work on the day will be paid a premium hourly rate in line with Tesco’s usual bank holiday pay.

Waitrose: Waitrose shops will close on the day of the funeral of Her Majesty The Queen, but an exception will be made for six stores along the route of the funeral procession to “serve members of the public who we know will be lining the route for many hours”.
