There are two different methods that your assistance will be paid to you if your application is successful:
Faster payment by BACS
You would need to quote your bank sort code and account number in your application. Your payment will be available for withdrawal the day after your application has been approved.
We can also make a faster payment to an alternative person you nominate in your application should you not have a bank account.
PayPoint outlet
If the faster payment method is not suitable, we make your payment through a barcode which can be issued via:
- SMS text message
- email; or
- notification letter.
The barcode can then be cashed at participating 'PayPoint' outlets.
Your nearest PayPoint outlet can be found below:
