The Easy Way - By Direct Debit

You give one simple instruction to your Bank or Building Society.  They then ensure that the appropriate amount is transferred automatically from your account to the Council's when it is due.  You will be notified in advance of the payments and their due dates, and you will be able to query a payment should you feel it is wrong, or stop it altogether; you can obtain a refund if ever an error is made on your account.

Other important advantages are:-

• No cheques to write, letters to post
• No queuing
• Your Bank or Building Society does all the work - but you stay in control

The Direct Debit Guarantee

• This Guarantee is offered by all Banks and Building Societies that take part in the Direct Debit Scheme.  The efficiency and security of the Scheme is monitored and protected by your own Bank or Building Society.
• If the amounts to be paid or the payment dates change, Epsom and Ewell Borough Council will notify you 10 working days in advance of your account being debited or as otherwise agreed.
• If an error is made by Epsom and Ewell Borough Council or your Bank or Building Society, you are guaranteed a full and immediate refund from your branch of the amount paid.
• You can cancel a Direct Debit at any time by writing to your Bank or Building Society.  Please also send a copy of your letter to us.
