You will then be taken to PayPoint website to complete your transaction. Choose to either 'Pay Now' or 'Register' if you'd like to keep your debit or credit card details stored for future payments. Your 'top-up code' is your payment card number on the reverse of your payment card, or underneath the barcode on any of your account correspondence.

    Telephone:

    You can call 020 3576 6103 and select OPTION 1 to make a top-up 24/7 using a UK credit or debit card. Your 'account number' is your payment card number on the reverse of your payment card, or underneath the barcode on any correspondence.

    You should receive your top-up within two minutes but can also use the confirmation code to manually enter the payment, if it is not received. You can find out how to do this in the User Guide.

    If you have any issues, or would like to discuss your payment options, please Get in Touch.

  • Can I set up a Direct Debit?

    You can complete an online Direct Debit mandate to make payments against your utility statements. You can choose to set-up a Direct Debit for either a fixed amount every month or a variable amount depending on your statement.

    If you have a PAYG meter and would like to set-up a Direct Debit, please Get in Touch with our team and we can advise on the options that are available.

  • What do I do if my top-up hasn’t appeared?

    You should receive your top-up within two minutes but can also use the confirmation code to manually enter the payment and to check if payment was taken successfully.

    You will enter the confirmation code, which will be at least 19 digits but may be longer into your PAYG meter or In-Home Display (IHD) device. If you haven't done this before you can check the User Guides in our Help and Support pages. This confirmation code is encrypted and one-time use only.

    Alternatively, if you have any issues, please Get in Touch.

  • My account number hasn’t been recognised?

    It is always worth checking you have typed your account number in correctly and that you have selected the correct option to make a payment to a bill or statement or make a top-up.

    If your account number is still not recognised, you may be able to make a payment or top-up using another method. You can find ways to top-up if you have PAYG meter or make payment for the bill received in our Help & Support pages.

    Our team can also verify your account number for you. Please Get in Touch.

  • My payment wasn’t successful, but it has been taken from my account?

    If you have attempted to make a payment or top-up and this has not been successful, your bank or credit card account may still show a pending transaction. This means the transaction has not been fully processed and will clear from your pending transactions normally within 24 hours but may take up to 7 days.

    We are not able to force reverse a pending transaction or advise why the payment was not successful. It is important to check all the information you provide is correct, such as who the address the card is registered to and other information.

    If you have any further issues, please Get in Touch with our team.

  • How can I change my Direct Debit date?

    If you are already making payments by Direct Debit you can change your Direct Debit date to on or around the 1st or 15th of the month.
