We have your set payment plan, however, we need your bank / credit / debit card details in order for us to facilitate and manage the payments securely. You need to complete the secure form to authorise us to set up a direct debit on your account as we can't otherwise withdraw money from your account. We don't share this information with the practice and we hold it securely within our systems.
