PAYING YOUR BILL

6. Invoices not paid by direct debit incur a $30.00 +gst surcharge. If the direct debit option is selected and no completed direct debit form is emailed/given to Tenancy.co.nz, the account will be set to be paid by invoice and incur the additional fees. A direct debit form can be completed at a later date, but no existing invoices will be discounted. The surcharge will be removed for future invoices once the direct debit form is received.

Terminating subscription

The one month period will start on the last day of the month we are notified of the request to end your subscription. Notification must be by email or in writing.
