Direct Debit
Many people find it convenient to pay rent like other household bills, by monthly Direct Debit and there are good reasons for this:
- Direct Debit is quick, easy and convenient
- No queues or special journeys to make
- It’s safe and guaranteed
- Peace of mind knowing that bills are never forgotten
- A choice of payment dates
- Direct Debit collection saves costs for the Council - our aim is to improve the efficiency and cost-effectiveness of Council Services.
If your bank does not support Direct Debits and you wish to pay using your bank please contact your Neighbourhood Officer for further details. If you would like to set up a Direct Debit please print and complete the Direct Debit form and return to us.
