Yes. Once the money hits your bank, that's pretty much it. Obviously, you would want to see the money in your account before parting with your goods.

Its safe yes, but you're disclosing your account number and sort code. I wouldn't give the details out because with Direct Debit + you no longer need to sign a mandate.
