If you're planning to close your account with Access PaySuite DDCMS and move your Direct Debit processing to another provider, it's important you notify us before you begin a bulk change. Please contact our Access Digital Assistant and request to speak with a support agent.

This ensures your transition is smooth, compliant, and free from disruption to your customer's payments.


Why you need to let us know

A bulk change involves transferring your active Direct Debit mandates from Access PaySuite DDCMS to your new provider. Because this process affects live payment instructions, we must be aware of your plans before any changes take place.

Notifying us allow us to:

  • Guide you through the bulk change process to ensure it meets all required Bacs regulations.

  • Ensure your contract, services, and payment settings are handled correctly and securely.

  • If a bulk change is carried out without our knowledge, payments may fail, be rejected by banks, or process incorrectly.

  • Help ensure your customer's receive the correct notifications and experience no disruption.


What you need to do

What happens if you don't notify us

If we're not informed before a bulk change takes place:

  • Payments may be rejected or fail.

  • Customer mandates may not transfer correctly.

  • Your account may remain active and billable.

  • Closure of your services may be delayed.

  • You may be in breach of contractual or regulatory requirements.

Notifying us ensures everything is processed smoothly and accurately.
