Pay your rent
The TMO manages your home and collects rent each week on behalf of Southwark Council. Every payment is passed straight to the council.
Whichever way you pay, you will need your 10-digit rent account number.
Ways to pay
Online
Pay by card on the Southwark Council website at southwark.gov.uk/rent.
Direct Debit or standing order
Set this up with your bank. Give them your 10-digit rent account number as the reference, along with Southwark Council's bank details:
| Sort code | 62-22-32 |
|---|---|
| Account number | 27540022 |
By phone
Call Southwark Council on 0845 6000 611 to pay by debit or credit card.
At a PayPoint outlet
Use your PayPoint card at any Post Office, or any local shop showing the PayPoint sign. If you need a replacement card, call the estate office on 020 3643 6941 or visit southwark.gov.uk/rent.
By cheque
Make your cheque payable to Southwark Council, include your 10-digit rent account number, and post it to:
