Pay over the phone
You can pay with a credit or debit card by calling Haringey Council’s automated 24 hour telephone payment service on 0300 456 0520 (please see call charges). You will need a touchtone telephone to use this service. Take option 7 for paying a ‘Haringey invoice’. You will be asked for a 10-digit account number. This is the number which is on your invoice and starts ‘18’.
Benefits of paying using the automated telephone payment service:
- pay any time, any place
- no more queues
- saves paper and helps the environment.
Telephone or internet banking with your bank
To use one of these options, you will need to give your bank the following information:

You can pay your service charges directly from your bank account by direct debit.
Benefits of paying by direct debit:

Help paying for service charges
Unfortunately we cannot help you if you are having trouble paying your service charges. However, if you are sick, unemployed or disabled, it is likely you will qualify for financial support under the government’s benefit system.
Please apply to your local Benefits Agency or get advice from your local Citizens Advice Bureau.
Please refer to the Council website for more information on this subject http://www.haringey.gov.uk/council-tax-and-benefits/housing-benefit-and-council-tax-reductions
Please note that if you qualify for help, you will still be responsible for paying your service charges.
