How can the Business Rates be paid?
Business Rates are payable over ten months from 2 April to 2 January and can be paid by the following methods:
Direct Debit
BAC's transfer
Cash or cheque at a Bank, Post Office or at the Council offices.

What happens if I don't pay?

• If I get a reminder notice for the current year?
• If I get an instalment cancellation notice for the current year?
• If I get a reminder notice for a previous year?

Two startling facts...

1. It costs the Council 100% more to process a Business Rate payment by cash or cheque than by direct debit!

2. It costs the Council 600% more to process a Business Rate payment by bank or post office giro than by direct debit!
