- Altering a DDR schedule
- Cancelling the drawings completely
- If you believe that there has been an error in debiting your account, you should notify the Merchant as soon as possible. The Merchant will notify you in writing of its determination and the amount of any adjustment that will be made to your nominated account (if any). Stripe will arrange for your financial institution to adjust your nominated account by the applicable amount (if any). Alternatively, you can also contact your financial institution.
- The details of your drawing arrangements are contained in the above Direct Debit Request.
- Stripe reserves the right to cancel the drawing arrangements if three consecutive drawings are dishonoured by your financial institution, and for the Merchant to arrange with you an alternative payment method.
