Account Changes

If you change your bank for charges, deposits or both, you will have to inform both Blink and your acquiring bank to ensure monies are charged from or deposited to the correct place. In the following overview, we will take you through the requirements.

Steps

Once you notify our support team, they can update this immediately.

  • Please advise if you wish to change where Blink charge you from, as we can send you a fresh Direct Debit form; once completed, our accounts team can amend this.

  • Please advise if your bank change is for charges, deposits or both.

Acquiring Banks

To change the details with your acquiring bank, you will have to email them with the details below.

Contact details

This email must be sent to aibinvestigations@aibms.com; please cc in support@blinkpayment.co.uk.

AIB Requirements

  • A completed and signed (by a current Company Director) AIB Direct Debit Mandate Form (if you change the account where the charges are debited).

  • A recently dated bank statement or welcome letter for the new account (must include account name, number, sort code and bank logo).

  • The change of bank request must be made in writing, signed by a current Company Director, in a cover letter. This correspondence must detail whether the bank details need changing for credits, debits, or both (via email).
