Bryan Carter & Co - Help Needed

I have been paying Bryan Carter and Co £15 a month towards a debt for about 2 years, I have now noticed that the amount coming out of my bank account has increased to £18.90. I have not agreed to this. Are they allowed to do this? I thought there was a direct debit guarantee?
Also does anyone have a number for them that actually works, I cant find one anywhere!

Direct debits are allowed to be changed, but I believe they should notify you of changes before they happen.
For that reason a standing order is usually recommended over a direct debit (you might want to consider changing for future).
Have you had any recent paperwork from BC? does anything say that the amount will be changing?A smile enriches those who receive without making poorer those who giveor "It costs nowt to be nice"0 -
I rang Bryan Carter who had no record of this debt, they told me to call Weybridge who also knew nothing of this debt. I have a letter from Bryan Carter dated Oct 09 with a statement of payments in the last 12 months, with a reference number but they cannot trace it anywhere.
It isnt on the system yet they are taking my money, I think a proof of debt letter may need to be sent.0
