Switching Bank Accounts
Direct debits are an agreement between yourself and the merchant or service provider, therefore you will need to contact the company directly to advise them of your new account details. For details about switching bank accounts refer to our step-by-step guide.
You need to contact your previous financial institution personally to close your account. You should first make sure all your service providers have redirected any direct credits or debits to your new account before you close your old account.
