I currently pay with card for my Sky bill and am considering moving to direct debit.
If the bill date falls on saturday/sunday, it will be taken the following working day right ?

It will be taken Monday.
Unless Monday is a Bank Holiday when it will then be a Tuesday.
yes, I pay sky by direct debit and itâs Monday. Same with every direct debit
Great thanks.
To set up a direct debit i just do it via Sky donât I ? Or do i need to set something up in my Monzo too ?
Surely anyone could just type in someones sort code and account ? Or is it verified by the account holders name?
Sign into your Sky account https://www.sky.com/myaccount/ .
Then go to âMy Accountâ > âView Your Billâ > âChange Payment Methodâ then select âPay monthly by direct debitâ and add your details.
Not sure there are many fraudsters lining up to pay other peopleâs bills
And youâll get a notification when a new DD is set up in your account. If itâs not one youâre expecting then you can stop it
oh sh*t yeah i forgot lol ! sorry about that.
@Chapuys it can be done via MYSky app too.
It is possible to commit fraud by Direct Debit with someone elseâs details but it is extremely rare and the bank account holder would be protected by the Direct Debit Guarantee and fraud protections.

Or you could just call Sky and theyâll take care of it all
Didnât you also post this in the Sky Forum and get a response? The answer will be the same here too.
Iâve called sky and got it all sorted. Thanks
Thatâs a real kick in the teeth for everyone who has wasted their time in responding on here and the Sky forums then
one minute you told me to contact sky now your saying its a kick in the teeth ? You obviously dont like my threads so why bother wasting your time ?
I said call Sky because isnât that the obvious thing to do? This is a bank community so we canât control your direct debit with Sky.
Instead youâve created duplicate topics and had various people running around answering the same questions. Perhaps in the future you can think a little more logically.before just jumping on here and creating another random topic? Surely it would be quicker and require far less effort too?
Also, it wasnât me that pointed this out, so donât vent your frustration at me
I know itâs a bank community but I was told to find out from my bank how they deal with direct debits
Itâs not unreasonable to not know whether one should contact the merchant or the bank to set up a direct debit, and hence ask both communities.
Who said that Sky? Or the other forums you posted the question on?
Either way, as I mentioned - it wasnât me that found out youâve been doing this so youâre pointing the stick at the wrong person.
You could also have Googled and gotten to the same answers, maybe try that next time?
Is this âmy first direct debitâ?
