Direct Debit
If you don't currently pay by Direct Debit, setting up a Direct Debit for mortgage payments means you may be eligible for a 0.25% discount on your current interest rate (terms and conditions apply - please ask us for further details). If the Direct Debit is subsequently cancelled, the discount will be removed.
Collection dates available are the 1st, 10th, 12th, 15th and 20th of the month and Direct Debits can be set up over the telephone by calling our Credit Management team on 0345 850 1766* or by completing a Direct Debit mandate (PDF). All payments set up for the 1st of the month will be collected on the third working day. Customers with a collection date after the 1st of the month may incur additional interest.

Pingit
You can now make payments directly to your Skipton account using Pingit.
Pingit is a mobile app designed for iOS and Android phones that enables you to make payments when you’re on the go. It links your mobile number to your bank account so that you can ‘ping’ payments to your Skipton account easily and without any fuss.
Once you’ve set yourself up on Pingit, to make a payment simply find Skipton Building Society in the ‘pay a business’ section and just enter the amount you would like to pay, as well as entering your nine digit account number in the reference field.
Once sent, your payment will be applied as if you had made a Faster Payment to your designated account.
