The Council is promoting Direct Debit to pay your Council Tax and Business Rates as it helps to keep down costs and helps you to budget easier.  It can save considerable time and effort, as there are no cheques to write and post and no standing in queues to make payments.

There is a choice of three payment dates, 1st, 10th or 20th of each month & ½ Yearly (2 instalments 1st April & 1st Oct).  If you wish to make payments by Direct Debit please complete the instruction below and return it to one of the local Council Offices.  Alternatively you can set up a Direct Debit over the telephone by contacting the Council Tax Office on 01983 823901, or the Business Rates Office on 01983 823920.
