Wellington City Council rates payments by internet banking

Charlotte from Khandallah

Be aware, Wellington ratepayers, the Wellington City Council website seems to indicate that 1.27% is added if you are paying for something online by internet banking.

We've had (unexpectedly) a year's worth of Council rates to pay (the direct debit authority we had in place for paying our rates monthly was cancelled, unbeknown to us, in November 2022) and when I went to pay it by internet banking, the template indicated 1.27% would be added (which came to nearly $70). This was not charging to a credit card - just ordinary internet banking. Husband went in and payed at their offices this morning after unsuccessfully trying to pay at a post shop and the Johnsonville Hub yesterday. I would be interested to know if anyone else has been aware of something similar.

Going away for Christmas/summer holidays? Have pets at home who need to be taken care of?
Me and my girlfriend Karolina are both big animal fans and can help you out while you’re enjoying your holidays! We are available for all around Christmas and have done over 6 other pet feeding jobs so you can trust we will get what your pets require done. Rates for other jobs have ranged 15-30$ a visit but are dependent on distance and time required rather than how many pets need to be cared for. We are also happy to water plants as a different service if you have high maintenance plants that need to be looked after. Please feel free to contact me on 027 588 4889 by text if you would like to clarify details or outline your interest. Happy holidays. 😇
