How do I cancel a Direct Debit?

There are a few different ways you can cancel a Direct Debit.

You’ll need to let us know before 5:30pm at least one working day before the payment is due to leave your account. For example, if you want to cancel a payment that's due to be made on Wednesday, you’ll need to tell us by 5:30pm on Monday.

Remember to tell the company you’re paying too, so they don’t try to take the payment from your account. And make sure you pay them any money you owe.
