Key worker accommodation - Ways to pay

There’s a choice of ways to pay for your accommodation

Direct Debit

Direct Debit is the quickest and easiest way to pay because, once it's set up, your rent and service charges are automatically paid to us on a regular basis and you don’t have to think about it again. Please call 0300 5000 926 and one of the team can set up your Direct Debit over the phone. 

Alternatively, just print off the form [docx, 159KB] , complete both pages in full, then take a picture and email it back to your local key worker accommodation team or return the completed form to reception. If you don’t have a printer, contact the accommodation team who’ll be happy to help.

Go online with MySovereign

By phone

You can pay using your credit or debit card at any time of day or night by calling our automated payment line on 0300 5000 926. You’ll need to use your payment pin during the call. Payments may take three to five working days to complete and calls from mobiles will be charged at your network rate.
