DIRECT DEBIT

View in Welsh

Direct Debit is our most popular payment option. For millions of customers, it’s
the most convenient way to pay, as your licence is automatically renewed each
year.



SET UP YOUR DIRECT DEBIT

Choose how often you would like to pay. Make sure you have your bank account
details ready and follow a few simple steps.



PAY MONTHLY - FROM £13.25

We'll spread the cost of your first Direct Debit licence over six months, at
around £26.50 a month. From then on you’ll pay around £13.25 a month.



PAY QUARTERLY - FROM £41

We'll take four payments throughout the year. Each payment will include a £1.25
charge.



PAY YEARLY - £159

You’ll pay the full licence fee automatically every 12 months.

Set up your Direct Debit

We will let you know your exact payment dates and amounts once you have started
setting up your Direct Debit.

You can also choose to make your first payment using a debit or credit card, and
then pay the rest by Direct Debit.



MORE ABOUT DIRECT DEBIT

For someone else

You can also pay for someone else’s TV Licence. You’ll need your own bank
account details, and the name and address of the person you’re paying for.

Set up a Direct Debit
For a business

You’ll need your business bank account details, as well as the address that you
need the licence to cover. If your business account has a sole signatory, you
can set up a Direct Debit online. If the account has more than one signatory,
you’ll need to apply by post. Download a PDF form at the bottom of this page.

Updating details for your Direct Debit

If you already have a Direct Debit set up, you can update your details at any
time. This includes changing your bank account or the date your payments come
out of your account.

Change your payment to annual, monthly or quarterly

To switch to making annual, monthly or quarterly payments, please contact us.

To make any changes to your Direct Debit, you’ll need your TV Licence number,
last name, postcode, and the bank details we hold for you (sort code and account

DIRECT DEBIT GUARANTEE

If you pay by Direct Debit, your payments are protected by the Direct Debit
Guarantee.

 * This Guarantee is offered by all banks and building societies that accept
   instructions to pay Direct Debits.
 * If there are any changes to the amount, date or frequency of your Direct
   Debit, TV Licensing will notify you ten working days in advance of your
   account being debited or as otherwise agreed. If you request TV Licensing to
   collect a payment, confirmation of the amount and date will be given to you
   at the time of the request.
 * If TV Licensing or your bank or building society makes an error in the
   payment of your Direct Debit, you are entitled to a full and immediate refund
   of the amount paid from your bank or building society.
 * If you receive a refund that you are not entitled to, you must pay it back
   when TV Licensing asks you to.
 * You can cancel a Direct Debit at any time by simply contacting your bank or
   building society. Written confirmation may be required. Please also notify
   us.

When I try to pay by Direct Debit on your website, why am I not able to select
'monthly'?

We may only be able to offer you certain payment schemes depending on how up to
date you are with your payments.

If you are not given the option to pay monthly when you renew your TV Licence,
you will be prompted to pay by annual or quarterly Direct Debit instead. Once
you have paid for a TV Licence by annual or quarterly Direct Debit, you will
then be able to pay by monthly Direct Debit for your next TV Licence.


If you still have questions take a look at TV Licensing FAQs where you can find
all the answers in one place.
