This is the problem about talking about the EU like it's one country, it's not.
As another commentator pointed out, the UK it's instant, now it turns out in Germany it's also instant.
That's 150 million EU citizens.
You shouldn't make assumptions that whatever happens in your country, it happens for the rest of the EU.
Here's Holland's transfer times:

That's another country that takes less than 24 hours. I picked them because when I often visited there as a child they seemingly had chip + pin way before the UK, so I assumed they'd be quite advanced. Not quite so as advanced as UK/Germany though. My Dutch isn't great but it looks like it's same day as long as it's before 15:30 on a working day, otherwise next working day. France I'm struggling with as google is obsessed about giving me UK to France bank account wait times.
