Fuel Payment Methods
Rather than having to pay large fuel bills all in one go many fuel companies have schemes to spread the cost. These include monthly or quarterly direct debit through a bank account or using a pre-payment scheme called PayPoint where payments can be made at a local PayPoint outlet such as a supermarket.
