Getting Money from SBI

[goodandbadjapan]

Whenever I transfer money from my bank to SBI in order to but funds I press the 入金 button tell the amount and it gets transferred instantly. I had a tiny amount of money just sitting there and decided to try to transfer it back to my bank (just to make sure everything works as it should). I hit the 出金 button and hit the amount and it disappeared from my SBI account as it should. But it isn't showing in my bank yet - anyone know if not takes longer to show up when taking out than it does when going in. Not sue why it should, but it has been a few hours now and still no sign of it.

In my experience with JP banks, transferring money from one bank to the other can sometimes take several days. In particular if the button was pressed in the afternoon: my bank (Shinsei) have an explicit warning that anything transferred after 4pm is pretty much guaranteed to not show up on the other side until the next day at the earliest.
