Making payments to us
You can make payment to us in several ways. Choose the method that suits you best.
Apply for a payment plan
If you are unable to pay all you owe at once you can apply for a payment plan. This means you will pay off your debt to us with a fixed amount every month.
If you do not pay in time
If you do not pay our payment demand, we will send a reminder. If you do not pay after the reminder we may send a debt collection demand to you. To avoid this happening, get in touch with us if you are late with a payment, cannot pay all at once or if you consider the payment demand is incorrect.
