There are four ways in which you can settle your monthly US Dollar or Euro Charge Card account. Whichever method you choose, please remember to always quote your Card account number.

We offer a special facility for our Cardmembers to help make paying your Card account as simple as possible. Instead of sending your monthly statement to your home or business address, we can send the statement to your bank and they can settle the account on your behalf. This means you don't have to write a cheque each month and ensures that your account is always paid on time - even if you are away from home when the statement arrives.

To arrange for your bank to pay your Card account on your behalf please call us on +44 (0)1273 868900 to set this up.

You may arrange payment by bank transfer. Our bank account details are:
