Have you tried moving the IBKR app from one smartphone to another? The messages I got that warned me about that this was happening felt so fishy that I initially thought I fell for a scam somehow.
Might be part of their security strategy; fishy communication so that users always check twice no matter whether its legit or not.

I redid the same transfer - without the same day option - from Postfinance and it took again 3.5 days to be credited on IBKR (executed on Monday morning, received on Thursday afternoon).
in my experience of 6 years, the money arrives at IBKR the next day when sent from PostFinance or YUH. The IBAN you mentioned is also what I use, along with a reference text (name, IBKR account ID) in the booking text / reference as shown by IBKR when setting up the transaction to inform them upfront.
Just as a FYI, late last night I did exactly the same, initiated the transfer from Postfinance with their (for me new) âQR Billâ generated by IB. A few hours later, at 2am, IB sent an email saying the funds are now available.
Check out the settlement delay, it is usually 2 days. Same goes for most type of transactions.
If you want to use the money earlier just change your account to a margin account. You will be charged interest for those two days, but that is really not much.
Once again got the message that some uninvested cash would sit better in moneymarket funds - then I checked the interest rates on usd and chf and saw that they seem to have changed those recently? Back in the day one always got benchmark -0.5% with nav above 100k - did I miss something?
Now it seems they pay way less on small uninvested cash than before?
Postfinance has or had a reputation of holding even domestic transfers for a day to squeeze out a bit of interest.
When transfering from a cantonal bank to the Citibank account until around 13:00, money arrives at IBKR maximum one hour later. Sometimes it barely takes 10 minutes.
