إجابة قصيرة
Cancel an automatic payment instruction from your bank's online banking under Payments > Automatic Payment Instructions. Cancelling stops future charges, but you must also cancel the subscription with the merchant — otherwise the debt keeps accruing.

STEP 01
Open your bank's online banking
In mobile or web banking, open the 'Payments' menu and find 'Automatic Payment Instructions' / 'My Instructions'.
STEP 02
Select the instruction
Instructions are listed by biller and subscription number. Find the one you want to stop.
STEP 03
Confirm cancellation
Tap 'Cancel instruction' and complete SMS verification if asked. No further charges are made for the next period.
Cancelling the instruction doesn't erase your debt to the merchant.
STEP 04
Cancel the subscription with the merchant
To stop the service itself (e.g. Netflix, gym), cancel on the merchant's own screen. The bank instruction only closes the payment channel.
STEP 05
Save the confirmation
Keep the cancellation SMS or email as proof for future disputes.
نصائح
- If the biller isn't listed, the charge is likely a card subscription payment — track it from card transactions instead.
- Keep one screenshot of the instruction list before and after cancelling.

أسئلة شائعة
What happens to my debt after cancelling the instruction?
Future charges stop, but amounts due up to the cancellation still must be paid. The merchant moves collection to alternative channels.
Can I cancel by phone?
Yes, most banks accept instruction cancellations via phone banking after identity verification. Doing it in the app gives you a record.
Is credit-card auto-pay the same thing?
Yes. Automatic credit card balance payments are also instructions and are cancelled in the same menu.
