What banks update available credit immediately after making a payment?

So after making a payment to your CC via a checking/savings account from the same bank, what banks update the available credit immediately? I can understand if you are paying a CC from another bank as the CC company wants to hold payment until it clears, but if it's the same bank I don't see why it shouldn't update right away.

My amex always does. I don't think any of my other cards do.

I know Amex and Wells Fargo credit your account immediately. Chase, Discover, Barclay's and Citi do not.

Re: What banks update available credit immediately after making a payment?

I was riding down the road the other day with DW driving... I pulled up the Wells Fargo app, transferred 500.00 to the CC from checking... by the time it refreshed (approx 20 seconds) via 2g network (was in the country)... Available Credit showed the $500.00.  I will say Wells Fargo does Same bank available.

 

Also IIRC, all of Georgia's Own Credit Union Transfers are instant if you request for it to be instant.

Really? My Chase credit is reflected immediately upon sending a payment. It could be that I bank with them so that might be a factor.

I pay my Chase CC's with Chase checking -- and it's never instant.

Dunno if Chase hates me or what. lol

Also, I can pay Cap 1 over and over each week and it's STILL not instant.
