Default Direct Debit... How long do they take to process?
Ok, I currently send a small sum to a charity every month, they send the DD instruction to take the funds out of my account on tuesday, thing is, I dont know when it will come out of my account.

They gave me the option of paying by standing order if it works out better for me but does a standing order help your credit profile like I know a DD does.

DD's take 3 working days to set up, and on the last day the money is seen leaving your account and appearing in the other account. (As distinct from a SO where the delay may be 3 days.)

If you're referring to your 'credit score' neither directly affect it at all.
