There has been movement in how you can set up DD's recently. Because the DD guarantee gives you the right to full refund in event of false or incorrect payments Banks as a whole have started accepting DDs without signature. IMHO I think its wrong but unless we all start complaining it won't be changed.
It can make it easier when say setting up a regular payment for say car insurance but I think it should at very least come with some form of identified payment ( signature, PIN entry or Card security, although I don't like this last one myself [1] )
Still As Willow says this info is not hard to get hold of.
[1] So we are told 4 digits are required for security of a pin but suddenly 3 digits are OK for card security????
