Online payment of retention fee proves popular
The new online payment service for Royal Pharmaceutical Society retention fees is proving to be the most popular means of payment among members.
Online payments make up 71 per cent of all fees received so far.
A member from Stockport who was the first person to pay online on 6 December
is being sent a congratulatory bottle of champagne.
The Society’s head of registration, Andrew Gardner, said: “We
are particularly pleased to see that the online payment service is being
embraced as it is a far more convenient payment method and much more
cost-effective.”
The Society says that a large number of members have already completed
their retention fee form for 2005 and paid the fee, which is due by 1
January 2005. Other members wishing to take advantage of the online payment
service should visit the retention
fee page of the Society’s website. Payment can be made online
using major credit and debit cards.
If members have a direct debit set up, the practising fee will be debited
from their account on or shortly after 4 January 2005.
Payment can also be made by cheque (sterling cheques drawn on a sterling
account) using the retention fee form and the prepaid envelope provided.
Members will be sent a receipt within 28 days of making payment.
