Important announcement about cash payments
From Monday 12 November 2018, our Customer Service Centres cannot take cash and will be moving solely to more efficient payment methods including direct debit, online transactions and card payments. Please consider moving to an alternative method of payment as soon as possible. Our Customer Service Advisors will be available to provide support and advice on alternative methods of payment.

For those customers who prefer to continue making payments by cash, this option is available at Paypoint locations.
