Follow-up plan + common mistakes
- If AP doesn’t clarify what’s missing, ask directly for the specific field (sort code, SWIFT, etc.)
- Update only via your secure portal or approved process—not by reply email
- If no response, phone call AP on the next business day
- Don’t share sensitive details in reply to unknown addresses—they must request via secure channel
- Don’t delay—payment cycles stall easily over missing information
