I would like you to help me again, please. I wanted to change my dates for Direct Debit and later noticed a fee of about 15 pounds. I should have been informed about this fee in advance. It Is not fair to pay this money without being informed in advance. Now I would like to cancel the date change or stay on the date I chose but have this fee canceled.
Thank you,
Diana

Hi ​@Elena Stan 

 

Thank you for getting in touch with us, 

and I’m sorry for any confusion caused regarding the Direct Debit date change and the associated fee.

I understand your concern about not being made aware of the charge in advance, and I appreciate why you feel this is unfair.

 

T&C's :
Due to the Direct Debit process, payment may come out of your bank account up to 3 working days after your nominated date.
Your Direct Debit payment date will change from your next billing period. So if you've got a Direct Debit payment pending, it'll come out on the original due date.
Your billing period will change to align with your new payment date.
Your allowances will refresh on your new billing date.
Your next billing month will be longer than usual. To ensure you've got enough allowances, they'll be pro-rated during this period (along with your line rental). This means your next bill will be higher than usual. For more information, visit Changing your Direct Debit payment date.

 

Thank you,

Thank you for your reply. In the meantime I have already paid the initial invoice. Please cancel the additional fee because, as I mentioned before, I was not informed about it in advance. Or if that is not possible, I would like to return to the initial payment date.

Thank you,

Diana
