For example if you make the payment before 1330hrs then, you can make your on-line booking the following day, after 1330hrs it then is a day later.

As I understand it, it takes a 24hrs for the receiving bank to inform them of the payment. What ever happened to the homing pigeon.

If you can make an appointment without payment first, I would be interested on how you go about it.
You can make an appointment online as early as 2 weeks prior your intended date of submission. I made my appointment online 2 weeks earlier than my planned date of submission.. printed the appointment paper as instructed in the website... went to the bank the day before the submission.. then went to vfs the next day. I paid via manager's check.

But when I arrived at VFS, the check was paid to UK Embassy Manila and not British Embassy Manila.. because of this, I went back to the bank.. asked them to make a new check with the correct detail this time.. then after which, went online and booked an appointment for the next day... then was able to submit my documents successfully.

Hope that helps!
