Finance Minister calls on ‘everyone to register’ as Land & Property Services launches a new service
Land & Property Services has launched a new service which allows ratepayers to manage their accounts online.
Rates Online enables customers to view their accounts, report changes, make payments and raise queries. Customers can also choose to receive their bills electronically.
Finance Minister John O’Dowd said: “I am committed to transforming the way public services are delivered making it easier and more convenient for citizens and businesses whilst providing a more efficient and effective customer response.
“Supporting ratepayers to make payments easily is a priority and this new facility will allow immediate online access to resolve queries as well as enabling online payment.
“Managing your account has never been easier whether you want to update information, make a payment or simply view details held, this can now be done through Rates Online.
“Rate revenue provides vital funding for hospitals, childcare, schools, and other essential public services that support our communities.
“I would encourage everyone to register for this service and look forward to further service improvements planned within Land & Property Services.”
