Form - supplier bank details for BACS payments

LATEST: New BACS form and guidance notes, see below.

We make payments directly into suppliers bank accounts by BACS (Bank Automated Clearing System). The benefits to suppliers include:

  • no time wasted handling cheques
  • your account will be credited within two working days from the date shown on your remittance advice
  • reduces the risk of lost or stolen cheques.

Cheque payments are being phased out

During this financial year, suppliers/vendors and individuals who have previously been paid by cheque will be moved over to BACS. A new supplier/vendor creation process will be rolled out and existing cheque payers will be moved to BACS.

All new suppliers/vendors need to complete a BACS form before a purchase order can be created. All completed forms should be sent electronically to Serco. We send our BACS remittance advices by email and fax.

Enquiries

If you have any further questions about this process or the BACS form, please contact the Accounts Team at SERCO, who deal with this work on the Council's behalf.
