I always assumed the term is used specifically to differentiate it from "working days", but talking to my bank today they claimed that "calendar days" doesn't include weekends and bank holidays.

Working days: weekdays excluding holidays.

Calendar days: actual days.

as per my almost-half-century on the planet (at least in English).
