If I make a debit card payment to my creditors over the phone (automated ) am I leaving myself open to trouble? As they will then have bank details?

I wouldn't. Once they have the details it's too open to abuse. Heard too many times of more payments being taken that you then have to fight like hell to get back.Still rolling rolling rolling......
