Your Key Easter Bank Holiday BACS Processing Dates.
The Easter Bank Holiday is fast approaching, with the long Easter bank holiday weekend falling 7-10 April this year. It is imperative to plan in plenty of time to ensure that your charity’s payments are collected on time and in accordance with the Service User Guide and Rules so that your Direct Debits can be taken correctly.
