What are the benefits of paying by Direct Debit?

Direct Debit is the easiest way to pay and gives you control over your finances, with a choice of payment dates and instalments spread across the year.

Your charges are normally payable in arrears every quarter, but you also have the option to budget for your bills by paying in monthly instalments, in effect ‘paying as you go’. You can set up a monthly budget plan and the payments we receive will build up a credit towards the bill when it becomes due.

If at any time you are unhappy with your payment plan amount you can choose to pay any outstanding balance in full and ask us to review your monthly payments.

You also benefit from the Direct Debit Guarantee:

An immediate refund from your bank if there’s an error

Advance notice if the date, frequency or amount of the payment changes

The right to cancel at any time.
