Hmmm... I just tried to set up a direct debit and it seems the only
option for the frequency is quarterly. I want to donate monthly. Why
can't I? Obviously, the fees are greater for 3 donations of £2, say,
than for one donation of £6, but I think you'll get a lot more takers
if you offer monthly direct debits for the simple reason that people
tend to be paid monthly.
