    Just contact your local office and tell them (they'll pass on the request to the Disability Allowance section), shouldn't be a problem. You could even try giving them a call on 01 704 3000

    But make sure you really want to, as once you do, it could be hard to switch back.

    I think you have to write to them when asking to change the method of payment.

    Could be a bit of a wait for it I changed my payment method for child benefit from the bank to post office and it took 3 months due to the pressure that department was under, not sure if disability would be the same but better to be prepared for a wait and be happily surprised if it's done sooner than expecting it right away. :)
