    Ring them, they will try get you to set up a minimum payment dd, but they do have the option for the full amount.

    Of course it's then your responsibility to ensure the source account has enough funds at the right time.

    Wouldn't it be easier to set up a bill payment using online banking? Then pay it when you get your statement?

    It should have asked you on the application form, but if not I'm sure there's an option in the "My accounts" section to set up a payment method (I no longer have my Halifax CC though)

    If not, just give them a ring and they should be able to change it over the phone.

    Choose the option for "pay a company" or whatever, and choose Halifax card, then in the reference bit you put your card number.

    I'd ring them though

    Go into your credit card account online, click on ways to pay and the necessary information how to set up a direct debit to pay the full amount is there.
