Utility pre-authorized withdrawals
Utility pre-authorized withdrawals authorize the City of Vancouver to automatically withdraw the amount you owe for your utility payment from your bank account on the due date.
Why you should sign up
- The program is convenient, saving you time and money (no more cheques, stamps or needing to remember to pay)
- You will never pay late fees or miss discounts
Join the utility pre-authorized withdrawals program
Download and print the agreement form, complete and sign it, and then submit the form, with a void cheque, to City of Vancouver Revenue Services by mail.
Before you join, pay off your utility bill in full. You can't use the program while you still owe an outstanding or overdue balance.
Cancel or change your utility pre-authorized withdrawals program
You must notify the City of any changes that affect your participation in the program (such as changing your bank, selling your property, or cancelling utility-pre-authorized withdrawals).
Complete the utility-pre-authorized withdrawals change form.
Submit the form, with a void cheque if required, to Revenue Services by mail at least 30 days before your next payment date.
