Here are some additional tips to help you make the most out of paying by direct debit:

Tip #1 Set direct debits up out of flexible accounts

Tip #2 Arrange for direct debits to be deducted at the beginning of pay periods, not the end to guarantee success.

Tip #3 Direct Debit’s don’t operate over the weekend, if your direct debit falls due on a Saturday or Sunday it will most likely be deducted the following Monday evening.
