Why was this SEPA Direct Debit declined?

  • Updated

SEPA Direct Debits may be rejected for different reasons:

  • If your balance is running low : top up your account

  • If the direct debit request has been sent less than 48 working hours before the debit date

  • If your Qonto account isn’t validated : upload your B2B mandate

  • If the B2B SEPA Direct Debit mandate is incorrect or hasn’t been correctly uploaded on Qonto : create a new B2B mandate

☝️ Good to know: the direct debit remains pending 48 working hours to give you time to fix the situation.

Some tips to avoid rejection fees and unpleasant surprises

  • Keep an eye on your account by downloading Qonto iOS or Android App! By checking your balance daily you can say goodbye to bad surprises.

  • Also, make sure that the creditor information entered is correct and that you have successfully filed the SEPA Direct Debit mandate in your Qonto interface.

  • If your direct debit has been declined, we advise you to contact the beneficiary to find a solution: initiate a transfer / represent a direct debit
