In line with other canal restoration trusts and related bodies, our preferred payment method for accepting membership subscriptions is now Direct Debit so you can make payments with us quickly and safely.
We have summarised the main benefits of using Direct Debit as your payment method:
- Secure payments: Payments move directly from your bank account to ours and you are protected under the Direct Debit Guarantee.
- Automated payments: Once set up, you never have to worry about manually making a payment – it works automatically for your convenience and peace of mind.
- Bank accounts never expire: There’s no need to update your payment details, as your bank account doesn’t expire, ensuring error-free payments.
- Early notifications and cancel any time: You will be notified a minimum of 2 days before a payment is taken and you can cancel your payments any time directly from your bank account for added flexibility.
Setting up a Direct Debit Mandate is very straightforward…
… and we have teamed up with GoCardless to manage this on our behalf.
Click on the yellow button below to provide the details needed for GoCardless to set up a Direct Debit mandate in your name.
You will need your email address, bank account number, and sort code.
Once the mandate has been confirmed, we will link it to your subscription details to ensure the correct subscription amount and payment date are applied. Subscription payments will be deducted automatically as your subscription falls due for renewal.
Furthermore, if you are one of our members who has chosen to make additional donations to the Trust, we can also set up the arrangements needed to make donations by direct debit, be they single payments or more regular monthly or yearly sums.
Please contact the Membership Secretary with any queries on the Direct Debit process.
Other payment options will remain available for those members unable to make use of Direct Debit.
