Need-to-Know Information

Cancelation can take up to 60 days to go into effect, so make sure you maintain enough funds in your deposit to cover any costs until the auto payments stop. Wells Fargo will also require an alternative way of making payments once you stop auto payments, so have that information readily available when you stop auto payments online or via telephone. Auto payments that are processing cannot be canceled, so it's essential to make the request well in advance. If auto payments stop before the next due date, make sure you are making payments on time either via mail, online or at a Wells Fargo branch location.

If you have other accounts at Wells Fargo, you will not need to set up a profile for your auto payment account; it will appear on your homepage when you log in. At any time, you can access your account, modify payment methods and monitor progress in paying off credit cards or loans.
