Direct Debit dates

If your normal direct debit date falls on a non-banking day (i.e. bank holidays, weekends) then your next instalment will be taken on the next banking day- never before.

For example, if your direct debit date is the 1st of the month, and the 1st is a Saturday, then the payment will be taken on the next banking day (i.e. Monday 3rd if not a bank holiday).
