Apply for Current Rate Assessment Outstanding – Direct Debit
Once you have paid your current rates, you may wish to continue using this payment method by applying for Direct Debit Pre-Paid. This could help you to get ahead on your rates by making smaller payments more frequently, helping to reduce the stress of paying bills in full as they arrive.
Here is how the Direct Debit Pre-Paid system works:
- You complete and submit a Direct Debit Pre-Paid application;
- With the view of the first payment being deducted in April each year, you will have the opportunity to pay over 12 months, instead of the 8 month process available through instalment options. This will finalise your account by the end of the following March/April, in line with the due date of the final instalment each year.
This arrangement is reviewed every two years to ensure that the amount currently being paid will still cover future rates. This process will automatically continue unless you advise the City in writing that you would like to stop.
Payments are deducted on a Friday (excluding public holidays) only. (If a Friday is a public holiday the monies are deducted the following working day).
Please note, any payments in advance will not be refunded unless under extraordinary circumstances expressed to the City in writing.
