    Hi,

    I set up a direct debit with Concern a couple of months ago an now wish to cancel it but am unsure how. My balance was is empty but Concern obviously still tried to take a donation. My balance is now a minus number. Can you help me cancel this? Also, once cancelled, can Concern take money? Thanks

    Requests to cancel a mandate will stop all SEPA Direct Debit payments for the unique mandate reference specified in your request. Once this request is processed by your mandate cannot be reactivated and usually requests will be processed within 24 hours of us receiving the instruction.

    Thanks for your help. Just one more question though. I had to contact them about the Creditor ID and Unique Mandate Reference and got them. Does this qualify as telling them I cancelled the direct debit or do I need to do it more explicitly again?

    Hi manyoung, 

    We would recommend that you still fill in the Cancel Mandate form on 365 Online or the paper form to ensure no further payments are taken. 

    Thanks,
    Sarah
