Paying Bills

Be prepared, avoid being caught out.

• Open a budget account at your bank.

• Never send cash in the post, send a postal order or cheque.

• Keep your receipt of payment.

• If you think you might have difficulty paying a fuel bill e.g. electricity, gas or  telephone, contact the company concerned immediately (the number will be in the phone book) and ask for advice. Failure to do this before the payment is  due could result in you being cut off.
