When will the last Tesco Savings account direct debit be taken if the due date is 23rd April?


Will that one be taken or cancelled?
over 73 but not over the hill.

  • It states in the T&C's booklet that changes take affect from 22nd April therefore your April DD should be taken.

    Sorry the date should have been 23rd April not 3rd April, same question still applies that was why I posted the question.

    Existing DD will be cancelled from 22 April so my understanding is that one due on 23 April would therefore not be taken. (My last one due in April is 20th so just in time). You could therefore alter the date to a few days earlier?

    Wait and see. I reckon that Tesco will take a few months before they cancel their dds. I am not doing anything yet and I won't until I see they are stopping dds.

    I'd be wary of the 20th, and bring it forward a few days personally. DD, as I'm sure you're aware, is a 3 day process and in your case completion day is the day after they stop the feature.

    Presumably you've drafted up a compensation begging email already not matter if they continue or not....

    Good point though may not need to if I set my PO online saver DDs to start in April.

    How do you change date of a TESCO Direct Debit so I can bring forward for April?

    My understanding is it would have to be cancelled and then reset up?

    Could easily be wrong though!

    I set up my replacement dds back in October / November when Tesco first announced they were doing away with the dd facility to avoid the last minute panic, and to avoid the Scottish Widows situation where they withdraw new applications.
    I consider myself to be a male feminist. Is that allowed?

    You go into your online banking and edit the dd. Similar to how you set it up in the first place
