Cancel Direct Debits After Death
Direct debits and standing orders should be cancelled to prevent ongoing charges to the estate.
How to identify direct debits
- Request a list from the bank
- Review recent bank statements
- Check paperwork for regular payments
Cancellation process
Contact each service provider to cancel. Keep some essential services (utilities, insurance) running until the property is sold or transferred.
