Our online Council Tax, Business Rates, Housing Benefit and Welfare Assistance service will be unavailable from 4.30pm on Wednesday 13 November until 7.00am on Thursday 14 November, whilst we carry out essential system maintenance. You can still make a payment during this time.

Set up or change your Council Tax direct debit


If you prefer never having to worry about making or missing payments, pay your Council Tax by direct debit.

When you set up or change your Council Tax direct debit, you have a choice of:

  • how many instalments you pay over the year
  • the date that you want to set your direct debit up for

Your direct debit changes in line with your bill

Once you're set up to pay by direct debit, you don't need to cancel it before you receive your next bill. Your direct debit will automatically change in line with any changes to your bill.
