At THCH, we want to ensure that paying your rent is straightforward and transparent. Rent contributes to maintaining and improving your home, as well as supporting services we provide for your community.
We carefully review and adjust rents annually to stay in line with government guidelines, keeping them affordable for residents while allowing us to reinvest in our properties.
There are multiple ways you can pay your rent. They are:
The easiest way to pay rent. Set it up on a date that suits you. If your rent changes, we’ll automatically update the charge for you. If you’d like to set up a Direct Debit, just get in touch.
Pay online, by phone, or in person at local PayPoint or Post Office locations using your unique Payment Reference Number (PRN) — this can be found on your THCH Payment Card.
You can pay over the phone anytime by calling AllPay or THCH (during our office hours). You need your Unique Reference Number (URN), address, and answer to your security question.
If you call THCH out of office hours, press 1 to be transferred AllPay.
You can set up a standing order, or do a BACS payment via your bank. If your rent payment changes, you will need to update the standing order. Make sure to put your Unique Reference Number (URN) as the payment reference.

Each year, we review and adjust rents according to government guidelines. This year, based on the government formula, it will increase by 7.7%.
This reflects changes in market costs and helps housing providers meet the sector's standards and regulations.
You'll need to update your journal on 1 April 2024 with your new rent amount. Just log into your online account. You cannot do this before 1 April 2024 so make sure you wait until then to do so.
If you receive Housing Benefit, then don't worry, we've let your local authority know about your rent. However, it's your responsibility to check that your Housing Benefit calculation reflects this.
