If you look at the image I posted you will see that option is not there!
It used to be but it isnt now...
I got an email reply but they are asking me to decide what I want the payment to be

Well it is there for me on my IPhone; IPad and on my computer (both in Safari and in Chrome web browsers). I accept that it may not be there on Android devices or on a PC. It could be that Octopus has different rules for different customers: my Octopus account is always in credit and I play ‘tunes’ on the DD adjuster to ensure that there is enough credit to pay in full the following month’s energy charges.
Octopus keeps coming up with a recommended payment but they have yet to cry foul when I put my monthly DD payment down to £1.1 -

Octopus keeps coming up with a recommended payment but they have yet to cry foul when I put my monthly DD payment down to £1.. They have obviously removed the option from my account. It was there - now it's not. Switching back to SVT from the Loyalty Fixed seems to have mucked things up. My account cannot show me what my tariff prices are either - it just says 'opps sorry - we can't get that info right now...'

Facility to amend DD is available on my account on my Laptop using Chrome browser, as well as iPhone using website & app. It was there when my account was in debit for a few months following Xfer from Avro.@TheGardener
That's really strange but possibly only until your account is fully updated to reflect the change from Loyalty Fixed rate to SVT. Hope you get it sorted soon.1 -
See if this works...
Click on "View My Bills"
In the address bar, replace "bills" with "payment-details" and press enter

I couldn't get there from the navigation presented and I didn't do quite what you said (I had to use the 'account' rather than 'bills') but I got there. I have changed it. However, my main account page may take a while to catch up...0
