Making payments to Mansfield District Council
On receipt of a notice to operate a DEA, you must:
- Make regular payments to us until we tell you to stop or the maximum amount to be recovered has been taken from your employees earnings.
- Pay the amount you have taken from your employee’s wages over to the Mansfield District Council as soon as possible, but no later than the 19th day of the month following the month in which you have taken it. For example, if you take the money on 30th September, you must send it to us before 19th October. If you take the money on 1st October, you must send it to us before 19th November.
By BACS (Automated Credit Transfer)
This is our preferred method of payment, because of its security and quick clearance times. When setting up a payment by this method, you will need the following information:
- Mansfield District Council’s bank details
- sort code - 30-95-43
- account number - 30653968
- account name - Mansfield District Council
- Employees LA reference number (Invoice number)
- This will be shown on the DEA notice you will be sent.
- If the payment is for one employee, enter the employees LA reference number.
- If the payment covers multiple employees, enter ‘DEA’ in field 10.
