Which applies equally to anyone you've given that authority to.

Going back to the "Meter maids" thread, it seems you badly phrased it,
it wasn't just me that read it as you giving flipper your online banking
credentials so that they could setup new direct debits from your bank to
the energy supplier each time they flipped you.

That's what they do. Up to the individual if they rather not allow this.

But trivially easy to set up a bank account just for this purpose. Which
is what I've done.
