There's lots of way you can pay your rent and charges.
Direct Debit is the easiest way, but we offer other ways to pay too including My Account, standing order or by phone.
We usually collect your rent and charges every Monday (weekly) or on the first day of each month (monthly). If you want to view your charges, or see your balance or statements, you can do this in My Account.
You should pay your rent or charges in advance. This makes sure you have a little extra in your account so you're always ahead of yourself.
Pay by Direct Debit
Setting up a Direct Debit is the easiest way to pay your rent and charges. Over 75% of people pay their bills by Direct Debit. The benefits include:
- Payments are sent to us automatically so they're never forgotten
- It saves you time. You don't need to remember to log in or phone us to pay
- You can choose to pay weekly or monthly – whichever suits you
- You're protected by the Direct Debit Guarantee
- If your rent or charges increase you won't need to do anything. We'll send you a new Direct Debit schedule in the post
