Connected wrong account to residence contract

When submitting my application for accommodation, I used my personal bank account in order to reserve the room. I was under the impression that you could change the bank account to the student account that I had not yet opened. Now I have the student account and I do not see a way to change the connected account. Is there a way to do this?
This is specifically for University of Sheffield but I would appreciate any help even if its unrelated to the same uni. Thanks.

I suspect you've provided the bank details to be used for a Direct Debit. A Direct Debit is where you authorise an organisation to request payment from your bank account -- and so it will be the accommodation provider that you've given the details to. You'll need to contact the accommodation provider to give them the details for your student account.
