By Post
Please make cheques payable to Ashford Borough Council and send

on the back of the cheque. If a receipt is required for your
payment please enclose a stamped, self-addressed envelope.
Standing Order
If you choose this option you must make your own arrangements
with your Bank or Building Society, which must be in accordance
with the payment amounts and dates shown on your bill, ensuring
they quote your account reference.
Is there anything else I need to know?
Please ensure that the correct reference number is quoted when
using all methods of payment otherwise we may not be able to
allocate the funds directly to your account.
If you decide to pay online, by standing order, or if
you send a cheque through the post, it will take around 4
working days before we receive your payment. We do not know that
you have paid until we receive your money and may
start recovery action if you have paid later than the due date
shown on your bill.
If you have forgotten to pay and your due date has
passed, please pay immediately by debit card over the
telephone.
