Important message when making an online payment
When making a payment the authorisation process may take longer than usual. You should continue to wait even when the message in the top corner says method complete.
Do not hit submit until the authorisation process has completed. The delay is due to a recent change by our third party to 3DSv2 card authentication to enhance security of online payments.
We are experiencing an issue with our third-party payment provider which may affect your online payment and are working with them to resolve this as soon as possible. Meanwhile, there are alternative methods of payment available should your payment fail. These include making your online payment using PayPal, our Automated Telephone Payments line on 01563 574057 and your local PayPoint facility. If you require assistance to make a payment you can also contact us by phone on 01563 554400 during office hours.
