Just a few years ago, in order to pay for transactions and carry out transactions, people were forced to stand in queues at bank cash desks and waste a lot of extra time. Today, the payment procedure has been simplified to the extreme - you can complete the transfer completely remotely, moreover, by connecting “Autopayment” from Sberbank, you will only have to enter the details once, then the system will process the payment without human intervention. Thousands of bank clients use the service, but if there is no longer a need for it, you need to know how to disable automatic payment - fortunately, in 2021 there are 6 convenient and simple ways.

Automatic payment of traffic fines
Sberbank clients pay traffic fines using Automatic Payments. Bank commission is 1% for online transfers, at the bank’s cash desk the client pays 2-3% for this service.
To activate the service:
- Log in to your personal account “Sberbank-Online”
- Indicate the car registration certificate number or driver's license number
- Set the frequency of checking fines.
The bank updates the database of fines from the traffic police and sends an SMS with a code for payment. In the response message, the user confirms the payment or ignores it in order to pay later.
What is this service
This service is used by almost all banks and is connected to online banking. The client customizes the service for himself. It tells the system when, how much and where it should automatically transfer. And at a given time, she completes the task, debiting money from the client account.
Typically, this is how citizens set up payments for the Internet, mobile communications, and television. That is, for services whose cost is fixed. You can also automatically pay for utilities, loans, and traffic police fines. The service is provided free of charge and, if necessary, you can easily disable Sberbank’s auto payment.
Autopayment for housing and communal services
Sberbank offers 2 types of auto payments for housing and communal services:
— Debt payment (the amount changes every month).
— Fixed payment (the same amount every month).
On the set date, the bank checks unpaid bills for housing and communal services and warns about the upcoming payment for the day. To opt out, the client sends a message to number 900 with the received code. The commission is 0-1%. Connection and use are free. The application saves and prints receipts.
One-time payment refusal
It is not necessary to disable Sberbank's auto payment service if you only need to skip one payment. For example, you made the required payment in a different way, or there was no longer a need for it in the current month.
How to cancel Sberbank auto payment in this case? Nothing complicated either. Two days before the set debit date, the client will receive an SMS message from the bank reminding them that the option has been activated and an automatic payment will be made. If you want to cancel this operation, simply reply to this message with the code provided in the SMS. Nothing will be written off on the appointed day, and the bank will send a reminder again next month. If you do not respond to it in any way, the payment will go through.
ATMs to the rescue
Wondering how to remove auto payment from a Sberbank card? To achieve the appropriate result, citizens can use ATMs.
To implement this method, you must resort to using the previously proposed instructions. Work with Sberbank ATMs is carried out according to the same principles as with payment terminals. It's not as difficult as it seems.
But it has already been emphasized that such solutions are not very convenient and are not always convenient. Therefore, we will further try to study other methods of disabling the service called “Autopayment”.
FAQ
How to disable topping up your phone balance from a card?
Users of Sberbank cards often ask the question of how to disable topping up their phone balance from a card. The need for such a disconnection arises for various reasons: a change in the tariff plan, a change in the phone number, an error when writing it while filling out the auto-payment details. You need to go to your email account and disable the service.
Why does automatic payment activate on its own?
Sometimes bank clients complain that automatic payment is activated on its own, without their knowledge. In reality, this is impossible: either you simply forgot to check the box next to the corresponding type of auto payment, or the withdrawal of money from the account occurred without your consent (for example, in case of late repayment of loan obligations, which is provided for in the corresponding clause of the loan agreement).
How to return funds written off on auto payment?
If a payment has already been made and the details are entered incorrectly, the payment will not be refunded automatically. If you notice an error, you need to immediately disable the auto-payment option and then contact the telecom operator to whom the money was transferred. In case of mutual agreement, the money will be returned to the card or transferred to the correct details.
SMS requests - the second method
How to remove auto payment from a Sberbank card? It was already possible to notice that there is no clear answer to this kind of question. You have to act in a way that is convenient for a particular person.
If necessary, you can refuse to auto-replenish your mobile phone balance. In this case, SMS requests are also used. This is a pretty quick and simple solution.
A guide to achieving the desired result will look something like this:
Fast, simple and very convenient! If a person has only one bank card associated with his phone number, he may not indicate its last four digits in the SMS message. Otherwise, there is no way to do without it.
