My direct debit was due on or after 12 March but they have not taken the payment.

Will Vodafone cut me off for non payment or will they just take the payment when it suits them.

TIA

    Could just ring them and find out...whats going on. Logically it would get cut off if there is non payment. Maybe they tried and there was an error at bank?
    Is 12th the bill date or actual rough payment date?

    it's happened to me before. they usually try to take payment again approx 5 days later. after that they would probably then just bar outgoing calls/texts but allow incoming ones.

    hope this helps

    I had a problem with vodafone, they were unable to take payments by DD as my local branch put a block on it for some reason, not matter how many times we reset it up from scratch. Anyway, im glad its paid :) Maybe it did come out and you didn't see it?

    Then they have someone else's bank details against your account ... probably.

    I have been with them/singlepoint for about 12 years with the same bank details and never missed a payment so there has been no need for them to have different bank details. when I check my account with vodafone online the bank details are correct.
