Payment Options for Service Charges / Ground Rent

Payment of your Service Charge can be made via:

Bank Transfer

Please refer to your service charge invoice/handout for relevant client account details.

Direct Debit

We offer payment plans via Direct Debit scheme.  To register email directdebits@nrmltd.co.uk and you will be emailed a link to setup direct debit.  Please refer to the covering letter with service charge for the payment schedule and confirmation whether adminstration charge is applicable).

If an administration charge for Direct Debit service is applied by your Management Company this is calculated as: 1% of your invoice amount (+20p per instalment) + VAT.  The reason why the admin charge is applied is so that other leaseholders/owners on your development are not impacted by additional financing charges when they pay in full as per lease/TP1.

Example:  Invoice £1000 collected over 10 instalments: 1% is £10 + 20p x 10 (£2) = £12 + Vat (£2.40) = £14.40

We use Gocardless to process all our direct debits to ensure that we comply with all the relevant banking codes of conduct and highest website security.

Cheque

Please make cheques payable to Norwich Residential Management Ltd, write your property address/account reference on the reverse and post to our Wherry Road address. Please note that an Administration Fee of £5 is payable for cheque payments so please add this amount onto your balance. Any cheques received will have this fee added to the Service Charge account to cover regulatory requirements for client funds. We have to log receipt, scan and bank within 24hrs. These are banked in the designated client account for your development.

Debit / Credit Card

Following new regulations that came into force in January 2018 regarding extra charges added to payments made by card have been abolished.  However as you must appreciate service charges are calculated via budgets and split between owners is based on payment in full (there is no allowance for card handling costs). It would unfair on owners that pay via the numerous free methods (bank transfer / direct debit etc).

Please note you are NOT paying NRM, your service charge is due directly to your management company / Freeholder.  NRM is only the managing agent.

So if you still want to pay via Credit Card we can provide a service, but you will have to pay the administration charge.
