Which banks are participating? 
There are many banking providers participating in the Faster Payments scheme but it's best if, before deciding to send a Faster Payment, you check first with your banking provider to see if they have the facilities to do so. Alternatively you can check by typing your sort code into this website: http://www.ukpayments.org.uk/sort_code_checker.
