For sundry invoice payments, you'll need to quote your 13-digit reference. For housing benefit overpayments, please quote your six-digit reference.

Direct Debit

For regular sundry invoice payments, most customers prefer to pay us by Direct Debit. This means that payments are automatically taken from your bank or building society account so you never have to worry about missing one.

We'll always tell you in advance the dates and amounts, and you are fully protected from errors by the Direct Debit Guarantee.

You can set up a Direct Debit quickly and easily online:
