Ways to pay
Direct Debit is the easiest way to pay. It is safe, secure and you can spread your payments and pay on a day that suits you. Plus, if you pay by Direct Debit you will be automatically entered into our local prize draws where you could win up to £3,000. If you decide not to pay by Direct Debit please make sure you pay your council tax a few days before each due date to avoid reminders.
