Bank account details errors

Introduction

Before Direct Debit funding source and bank payee creation, Customate performs verification for bank account details (sort code & account number or IBAN). This ensures that the bank account details provided to Customate are checked for accuracy before they are used for payment processing. During this process the service can face next errors issues that will be returned right a way in response:

{
“errors”: [
{
“message”: “Account Number’s check digit is not correct.”,
“code”: “iban_incorrect_account_number_check_digit”
