Co-operative bank address

Can anyone tell me the address to use when setting up direct debits for a co-op current account? I set it up over the phone so I don't have a branch, googling it gives several options, including different PO Box numbers at the same address so I'm a bit lost

Thanks

    The address they give for "switching" direct debits and standing orders to them is:

    The Co-operative Bank
    New Business
    PO Box 50
    Skelmersdale
    Lancashire
    WN8 6YL

    Alternatively, another address they give for setting up a direct debit is, see HERE:

    Freepost NWW 2330A
    PO Box 600 Delf House
    Skelmersdale
    WN8 6GF

    Any of the addresses will do as nothing gets sent to them. I've always used the Balloon St address as it's the branch I always use.
