You (the account holder) do. Direct debits are instantly reversible for a month (maybe 2?).

You'll have to explain to the company that deducted the money why you reversed the charge though, and if it was legit after all you still need to pay them.

There's no time limit for reversing direct debit transactions.

There is. It‘s 8 weeks (for any reason including "I‘d like my money back and rather do something else with it") or 13 months (for unauthorized charges).
