How to auto-process WooCommerce orders except for BACS payments?

Question

I would like to change the woocommerce order status auotmatically from "on-hold" to "processing" for every new order, except for payment method BACS (Direct Bank Transfer). I already found this code, but do not know how to adapt it to exclude payments made with BACS.

add_action( 'woocommerce_thankyou', 'woocommerce_auto_processing_orders');
function woocommerce_auto_processing_orders( $order_id ) {
    if ( ! $order_id )
        return;

    $order = wc_get_order( $order_id );

    // If order is "on-hold" update status to "processing"
    if( $order->has_status( 'on-hold' ) ) {
        $order->update_status( 'processing' );
    }
}

Thank you for your help!

Update related to your comment based on WooCommerce: Auto complete paid orders answer thread.

Try the following:

add_action( 'woocommerce_payment_complete_order_status', 'wc_auto_complete_paid_order', 10, 3 );
function wc_auto_complete_paid_order( $status, $order_id, $order ) {
    return 'processing';
}

It should work.

Original answer (based on the question code):

You can use WC_Order get_payment_method() method as follow:

add_action( 'woocommerce_thankyou', 'woocommerce_auto_processing_orders');
function woocommerce_auto_processing_orders( $order_id ) {
    if ( ! $order_id )
        return;

    $order = wc_get_order( $order_id );

    // If order is "on-hold" update status to "processing" except for "BACS" payments
    if( $order->has_status( 'on-hold' ) && $order->get_payment_method() !== 'bacs' ) {
        $order->update_status( 'processing' );
    }
}

It should work.
