Pay by direct debit
Direct debit is the easiest way to pay - once it is set up there is nothing else for you to do. Call us on 01246 345345 to set up a direct debit over the phone. Please have your bank details ready (these are on your bank card or cheque book).
You can choose to pay on the 1st, 10th or 20th of each month to suit your circumstances. Payments can also be arranged weekly.
If you prefer you can download a direct debit form (below), complete it and send it to us by email to rentsdd@chesterfield.gov.uk.
Pay by debit or credit card
Debit cards accepted are Visa Electron, Visa Delta, Switch/Maestro and Solo. Credit cards accepted are Visa and Mastercard (not American Express). No charge is incurred for debit or credit card payments.
Please note: our online payments system uses temporary cookies to keep track of your progress as you complete the form, but they will be deleted when you close your browser.
Other ways to pay
PayPoint or Post Office
You can pay at any Post Office or PayPoint outlet near you using the barcode printed on your letter, bill or payment card. Get your barcode here.
Standing order or online banking
You can arrange this yourself direct with your bank or through online banking. Please make sure you quote your rent reference number. If you pay by standing order you will need to tell your bank to amend your payments if your rent changes (such as your yearly rent increase or changes to Housing Benefit).
