Can't you just set up a new DD from the other account. Job done? 

There's no facility for that... unless you do the account switching thing, but you can't switch a business account into a non business account.

My priority was to opps Lloyds Business banking off asap... so I did, and if setting up a few direct debits is what's required, it's a small price to pay

Why do you have to phone them?  Can't all be done online?

You can't alter direct debits online... they have to be cancelled and restarted fresh... I need to ring them to confirm the car is still taxed before I go to work, otherwise I will need to rearrange my car tax

I think that as long as you have a DD in place you'll be fine. Cancel existing, set up new one. Job done!

Ooooooo...I do hope you don't get a tug, Jason, that wouldn't be funny.........much.

Strangely though, the Leaf is £0 road tax, but I still have to setup a DD for £0 in order to 'tax' it

Ah, but how can he set up the new DD short of taxing the car again? AFAIK 'you' (the punter) can't set up a DD, only the receiving company can - unlike a Standing Order which 'you' (the punter) set up.

I saw one of your ilk this morning, sitting in the outside lane of the M3 at 50 (in the 50 stretch) despite two clear lanes to her left. When she eventually moved over (because she'd come up behind a roadworks lorry about to enter the roadworks) she moved straight back to lane three as soon as she could.

OK, but if he cancels his existing DD and then provides new bank details, then what could possibly go wrong?

Well...

Still showing on DVLA Vehicle Enquiry as taxed, so will keep checking, and if it changes I shall pop on line and start over, otherwise it can wait until April 1st
