texts over and over again

I reinstated my direct debit last month and recieved numerous texts through out the month saying I had done so which is annoying. 

 

I then get a text to say my direct debit had been cancelled and I must pay immediately!

 

Annoying again. 

 

Paid it manually restarted the direct debit. Fast forward the next month I'm getting the same text repeated to me. So I'm now waiting for the direct debit to fail and do the same again as I can only assume history repeating itself. Any suggestions anyone will be greatly apprec

iated.

Hi ​@Steven James 

 

Thank you for reaching out to us here on the community. 

 

We are sorry to hear you are receiving these messages. These would usually only be sent when there has been a change requested. 

Have you spoken with your bank to check that there are no issues with the direct debit on their side? 

 

Thanks,

I too have been getting these spam texts repeatedly and before you ask my DD was taken a few days ago so there is no issue with the bank. I reinstated my DD after it was cancelled by iD and now I'm considering blocking the texts and reporting as spam but then I won't receive actually useful texts so if this issue is clearly bothering a lot of people it's serious and if I continue to receive them then blocking spam is the only answer?

Hello ​@Messymane 

 

Thanks for getting in touch. 

We are sorry to hear you are also receiving multiple texts. 

How long have you been experiencing this please?  Can you please confirm if these started after making any changes?
