Restart a failed Direct Debit

If a Direct Debit fails, you can restart it

Written by Dr Askari

Unpaid / failed Direct Debit payments

  • If Collums does not receive a DD payment when expected, regardless of the reason, your clinic will receive an email notification.

  • There can be different reasons for a payment being missed including the client cancelling the DD via their bank.

  • Once a DD payment has been missed, the DD is paused.

  • If the client has cancelled the DD, it cannot be restarted. You will need to create a new one.

Insufficient funds

One of the most common reasons for a failed direct debit payment is insufficient funds in the patient's bank account.

  • If the DD has been stopped due to insufficient funds, it can be restarted again. Go to Client Card>Financials>Memberships / DD and use the Options button to the right of the DD.

    • Ensure that you ask your patient to check that they have sufficient funds to pay the Direct Debit before restarting it has repeated failed requests can result in a charge to you.
