Credit Card - stop full balance direct debit

    Hi. I have direct debit set up on Tesco credit card to pay full balance.
    It's due to be paid "on 10/7/24 or soon after"

    I've made a balance transfer with another credit card to pay off most of the balance.

    I've updated the direct debit today to min balance, but it looks like this will not change until after the next statement (so in August). Will the amount the direct debit takes automatically change to only take the balance that's left on 10/7, or will it still try to draw the full statement balance (that would take the credit card balance significantly into credit)?
