TV licensing appear to be insisting you now have to send a bank statement (and it must be a full one, not a mini-statement) if you are setting up a direct debit
Can this be true? It seems like a step backwards.
Surely an improved direct debit system should give less information to the payee, not more?
From the "TV License Direct Debit" page of An Post's website:

TV Licence Direct Debit information
You can pay your TV Licence fee through Direct Debit from you Bank Current Account
Important announcement:
A New SEPA TV Licence Direct Debit application and mandate form will be introduced from November 14. From this date onwards you must use this form when making an application to pay for a TV Licence through the TV Licence Direct Debit scheme. It will also be mandatory to provide a recent bank statement with your application.
