Vehicle Tax DD Question

I pootle along quite happily paying my vehicle tax monthly by DD but I need to change the bank account that the payments are made from. I've googled to see if there's an easy way of doing it online but just seem to be going round in circles! Any ideas?

    Cancel the direct debit from the account you don't want to pay from anymore. You do this via your bank.

    Setup a new direct debit starting from the day the old one would usually be taken.

    Thanks - that seems complicated though - surely there's a way of just updating the bank details!

    Try phoning DVLA they might be able to help you but cancelling and resetting up the DD might be your only option.

    Just spoken to DVLA and they agreed - cancel the current dd and then go online on 1st November and set it up again!
