How to Pay

Your bill shows how much Business Rates you have to pay. Payments should be received on or before the date they are due.
Direct Debit is the easiest way to pay your Business Rates; we offer a choice of payment dates – 1st, 10th, 20th or half yearly (two instalments due on 1st April and 1st September).

Why change to Direct Debit?

  • It is a more convenient way to pay.
  • It helps you budget for the future.
  • It saves you money on postage and stationery.
  • It avoids traveling expenses and queuing.
  • You do not have to complete a new form every year, unless you change your Bank or Building Society or move house.
  • You will be notified in advance of the amounts to be collected
  • You can cancel a Direct Debit at any time.
The Council has to comply with the Direct Debit rules issued by the Banks. All payments are governed by the Direct Debit Guarantee.
