What bank details to lenders need to be able to take money from your account?

I took out a loan but have since got a new card and my old card has been blocked... I'm not sure which bank account details to e-mail to the lenders letting them about this. Thanks.

  • They'll continue to take it from your existing account through the authority you gave them.

    Are they able to though since my card details have changed? My account number and sort code have stayed the same but all the other details have changed.
  • Yes. It's highly unlikely they used your card details in the first place, but the authority would still stand if they had.
  • It depends on whether you agreed a DIRECT DEBIT with them or a CPA (continuous payment authority). 

    If it was the latter then yes you will likely need to inform them and update your card details.

    It was a direct debit. Which card details should I e-mail to them?
  • If it's a direct debit your card details are nothing to do with anything, it'll just come from the bank like normal

    For a DD, all they need is the account number and sort code, which they already have. A debit card change is not relevant.
