Great question, of course you can change your Direct Debit date. The easiest way to do this is via your online account or OVO app (download for Android or iOS). 

 

Check out the ‘Payments’ page - you can change your payment date by clicking on the ‘Change Direct Debit date’ button,

 

Exact appearance may vary

 

If the payment is due in the next 5 days, the change won’t apply until next month.

 

You can find out more about Direct Debits on our FAQs.

Hello, I was wondering if there's any way of changing the date of my direct debit please? I can't find anything on the app which would let me do it on there.

I don't get paid untill the last day of every month and it's been set up to be taken on the 28th of each month. I need to change it to be taken out on the first of every month.

Hi, I’m a new customer and my 1st DD payment is scheduled to be taken from 9th October.
How do I change the date as no option is available within the App or online?
Is it possible to change the date of my DD to earlier in the month?

Already dealt with thanks. Thought the response may have come along a bit quicker.
So I've just switched to your company, and had my direct debit confirmation through the post. It says that the date of collection for the amount to be debited is the 3rd of January, however I don't get paid from work until the 10th January.. Are we able to change the day it gets collected?

Hi,

I am in the process of switching from my old supplier on March 7th i have been told.
My direct debits have always been around my pay day which is the 15th of each month,so can OVO start from this date if the switch happens on the date they have said?
Thanks

I have just moved to OVO today. However my app is telling me that my withdrawal date is 28/06/18 for my direct debits. I want my debits on the 2nd of each month, how do I arrange this. As I can’t find anywhere on the app to ammend this.
