Odd - as they can take as often as they want, when they want. They're not restricted to a fortnightly debit.0

My bill is £14.50 a month, so they shouldn't be able to take it every two weeks right?0

Sounds like the information you have is from the bank, this just means the last 2 payments where a fortnight apart, this could be due to the 1st and 2nd bill being close together or a change in the date you may have requested. Could also be if it bounced and was represented.0

Did you miss message # 2 ?
They can take it daily if they want - not that they would, but they retain the ability to. You have absolutely no control over te amounts or frequency of the debits. All you can do is cancel it.0 -

No I didn't as that was the message I replied to. I'm asking why it says 2 weekly, I know they CAN take it daily, but they already took the monthly payment of £14.50, and according to my direct debit info it's due in another 2 weeks, when it's not due for another month.0 -
Stating the obvious, but you need to ask Sky.No free lunch, and no free laptop0
