Barclays, Rainy Day & Blue Rewards

Glad I didn't switch my Barclays account now.
I see the 5% savings but I'm not wanting to get stung with the blue rewards charge.
I know I need 2 direct debits. With Birmingham Midshires shutting down their offerings, I've opened up a Moneybox account & have it set to take a D/D of £2 each week - so that'll be 4 direct debits in a month.
Or will it?
Does it get seen as only 1? I know some banks insist on different direct debits for their criteria, such as TV Licence & Phone bill say.
For the sake of asking, I'd rather just do that & make adjustments in time if needed than find out by getting charged the fee.

It doesn't need to be 2 different DDs for Barclays. Weekly Moneybox will be fine.
