Multiple payments into building society.

Options
Hello.

This is my situation. I've been putting money into a building society since October 2024, and then in November, l set up a standing order. This has resulted  in Dec/Jan receiving multiple  deposits with the extra being returned  and a message online, plus a letter telling me not to do this. 

The issue is when my app had a makeover  there was a standing order buttons but it seems to have disappeared. 

This is the Lloyds app and the missing button was in the Easy saver section account. I was directly  funding from it.

What l don't understand  is the returned  S.O. goes to to my Classic account even thought  l don't fund from it.

I hope this makes sense.

    When you set up the building society account, did you set up a "linked account" for withdrawals?  If you did, then any over-payments would be redirected to that account.  (The building society may not know the full details of the account from which payments were made.)
