Santander

I received an email saying a direct debit of £449.99 had been set up for a didsbury dental practice, based in Manchester. I live in London. I had not arranged any such direct debit and immediately informed my bank,; not Santander. I had an account around 30 years ago, not now used. I will phone Santander as a precaution to close it.
But be aware. I hate these people.

In the above post you said that you will phone them.
That was posted today.
Now you say you have phoned them.

I’ve done all this, but feel a little angry. They told me about going into a branch but there is no branch h anywhere me!

To close a Santander account you have to go into a branch with proof of identity.

Inform both your bank and Santander asap and the dental practice in Didsbury - if it exists - can whistle for it's money.

I’m confused, why inform your bank which isn’t Santander about a DD set up for Santander? Surely Santander is your first port to call.
