The result was some Debt Counsellors changed the bank details while others decided not to. Many were left wondering what to do.

It seems it is a complicated matter and it will take the courts to help finalise the dispute.
The matter should be heard on the 19th of March, with judgment to follow soon after (hopefully). This will provide the needed clarity and help resolve the matter.
‘Consumers do not need to stress about this’
Consumers do not need to stress about this background dispute as payments are still being made to their accounts, and it is more a matter of who pays which invoice to who and not about whether funds are going to the correct accounts. Your money and your payments are safe.
