Yes 3 to 5 days and the expense as well. I also remember how long it took to clear a cheque in those days
I spent a fortune sending money and making overseas calls which can now be done for nothing (well next to nothing).
If using Line or whatever.
Note @CO-CO I was not complaining. I was wondering who had the use of the money for that 2 hours.
It was not stuck as photons in a optical fibre.
....and I was in no way being critical of your post, it reminded that we sometimes forget how much better (most/many) things are these days.
