Automatic Bank Draft – Request Bank Draft
The City of Lynchburg Billings and Collections Division is pleased to offer an Automated Direct Payment Program for our customers. Since this is designed to electronically draft funds from your bank on the due date, this program provides a convenient and reliable method of paying your utility account for water and sewer.
To participate in the automated direct payment program complete the information requested and sign the authorization form (PDF), attach a voided check from your personal bank account, and return both to the Billings and Collections, Utility Billing office (you can find the address on this page).
The Utility Billing office will process your request upon receipt. The next utility bill issued by this office must be paid in full by the customer. The Utility Billing office sends a payment verification transaction (pre-note) to your bank on this bill and no money will be collected by bank draft. On the second bill after you have presented the authorization form your bill will include a message “Bank Draft -Do Not Pay”. Your bank account will be drafted on the due date for amount reflected on the bill.
All customers are required to provide written notification 30 days prior to your bill due date, of any bank account changes or if you no longer elect to participate in the Automated Direct Payment Program.
If your bank rejects the utility payment draft for any reason, you are required to pay by cash or money order to the Billings and Collections teller in City Hall the amount of the draft, a service fee, and the security deposit. Your water service is subject to disconnect; on the next business day after notification is sent by your bank that the draft has been rejected. Additional fees will apply if your water service is terminated. It is very important for you to contact the Utility Billing Office regarding any problems with your payment. We will also advise you on the status of future bank drafts. If you have any questions or concerns about the Automated Direct Payment Plan, please contact Utility Billing at 434-455-3840.
