How do I stop an automatic payment from coming out of my account?
The best way to stop the payment is to contact the vendor who is submitting the request. If they are unresponsive, you may request a one-time stop payment or a permanent stop payment of ACH debits. A one-time stop payment is used stop one specific payment for the date and amount you request. A permanent stop payment will cancel all future payments to that vendor payee. To request a one-time or permanent stop payment for automated debits, you will need to complete the Stop Payment Form. Please contact us for assistance.
Note: Depending where the item is in the processing cycle, the stop payment request may not be effective.
