Last night, while half asleep, l mistakenly  sent £250 over to my FD monthly saver account. Obviously, the money didn't cover the standing order amount, so l sent funds to cover the shortfall ASAP . 
Will it correct  itself today, or will l need to phone them to change the standing order for next month?

I only have one more payment  left on this regular saver, so l would have to send £350 in June??

    Others may confirm but I think that if the first SO fails (at 1:00am or thereabouts) it will be retried again during the day. 

    Have you had any notifications in the app or elsewhere about the SO failing? Are you now showing sufficient funds in your current account?

    Chat to FD, their CS is friendly and helpful (and capable) in my experience.

    No notification but just had a check and looks like it's gone through.

    Thanks for replying.
