Paying your rent

You can pay your rent to the Royal Borough of Greenwich your rent weekly, fortnightly or monthly, but you must pay your rent in advance.

Monthly payments are calculated by multiplying your weekly rent by 52 weeks and dividing by 12 equal payments.

Charges for communal heating are divided among all residents and this cost is added to your rent account.

You should keep your own records of rent payments so that you know that your account is up to date.

However, we will send you a rent statement every three months. We will also write to you if your account falls into arrears.

You can pay your rent in the following ways:

• pay your rent online using a credit or debit card
• via a bank standing order (you can download a form from this website)
• at PayPoint outlets using your payment card
• at a post office using your payment card
• using the automated telephone payments service number on the right
  
• at one of our service centres, either at a cash office or kiosk using a credit or debit card
• by cheque. Send your payment to the address on the right. Remember to write your name, address and housing reference number on the back of the cheque.
• by text. Go to the Allpayments website to find out more.
