Standing Orders are typically used to pay rent, subscription or other fixed regular payments.  A standing order is not usually suitable for paying utilities and other variable bills; for these types of payments, a Direct Debit payment service is available providing that the billing organisation has also registered for the service.

A Standing Order can be set up to run for a set period of time, or indefinitely.

To cancel a Standing Order, a notice period of 2 working days must be given and the bank will require the account holder to complete a Standing Order Cancellation Form.
