How we make direct payments

We can pay straight into your bank or building society account.

We pay every four weeks for the four weeks that have just passed.

If you have several tenants on benefit, we combine all payments into one payment. We send you a list of payment details for each tenant.

We do not take on your tenant's responsibilities because we pay you direct.
