A CS rep has advised this morning that the launch was initially due to be this week, however, is apparently being delayed "due to some technical issues on our side prior to launch".

So who knows really 🤷‍♂️

There is now a Direct Debits section in the Scheduled payments screen

Just had email confirming DDs are now possible

Hiya, has anyone else had any difficulties getting through the ID check. Done it 3 times now.  Anyone got any tips? 
Thanks.

It took several attempts for me. Good lighting is key.

Quick update from Los Angeles: No charges for using Chase USA ATM and perfect MasterCard exchange rate with no additional fee (pictures attached). In addition was able to change the CC used for the reservation and finalise the payments at both Marriott and Hyatt hotels, gaining some nice cash-back.

It doesn't seem to be integrated much. It mostly sees it as a separate bank.

It is not integrated, like Santander UK is not integrated with Santander in Spain, but the extremely positive thing for those that travel to the USA is to be able to use Chase ATM free of charge (other USA banks will charge you a fee, as would Chase USA  for other UK issued Debit Card). I do travel to the US extensively, and previously I have used my Santander UK cards at Santander US branches to avoid the fees, but those are only available in few states, mostly on the east coast.

Busy switching from starling to Chase now they have DD`s...but found a very "annoying" thing ...every time you pay your credit card you have to input the "reference" number(the cc number) I pay as I spend on my CC so pay regularly...ill live with it but hope it changes soon !!

How are you making the payment? This shouldn't be required for either a debit card payment or DD.

The how is presumably faster payment transfers, but as to why pay that frequently, that's less clear!
