Guide to making payments

You can pay for Pitney Bowes products and services in a variety of different ways. To ensure your payment is allocated quickly and efficiently to your account, please take a few minutes to read this leaflet and familiarise yourself with our payment process. (If required, please pass this leaflet to your accounts department.)

Please note that in order to comply with UK legislation, Pitney Bowes operates through four different Barclays bank accounts. You’ll need to make sure that you make a payment to the right bank account in order to ensure your payment is processed correctly. For example, if you need to make a Postage by Phone® payment and a lease payment, these payments will need to be paid into separate bank accounts (see below) and not combined into one payment.

Clearance Times & Requirements
BACS payments take 2 working days to clear and should be accompanied by a remittance advice, sent to the above remittance advice address, which clearly states your account number or the invoice number(s) being paid. It is important that you include your remittance advice to ensure funds are placed against the correct account. Payments received without a remittance advice may take longer to clear.

Direct Debit Payments

A Direct Debit Mandate needs to be completed for each of the four bank accounts listed above. Once these have been set up, payments take 3-4 working days to clear.

Direct Debit from your bank account is the simplest way to pay your bills. Payment will be debited to your account on or after the due date that appears on your invoice, ensuring you maintain full control. If you have not yet set up a Direct Debit and wish to do so, please contact us on 08705 252525 (Option 4, Billing).
