T1 (G) Ext : Fee payment by Debit or Credit Card...?

[NeerajS]

Hi All,

I am sorry if my query seems to be very trivial but still I think its better to ask for help rather than remaining in confused state.

I am planning to apply for T1 (G) extension coming week and would like to know about the preferred way of making payment.

I am bit confused if I should use debit card or credit card...which one is preferable..? does using credit card have some downside...? as I have heard about problem faced by some member earlier whilst making payment using credit card...
I would appreciate if I can get some expert advice in this regard..?

Regards,
NeerajS

Hi Neeraj,
Anything is fine. Since the amount is huge if you are using credit card check with your bank that whether they accept that much amount. If you have enough money in your bank I would suggest to use debit card.

I paid £1950 from my Natwest credit card at Sheffield PEO and transaction went without trouble. I didn't inform my bank and also there was a note that Natwest debit credit card payment over £1000 requires authentication but my transaction went fine

I have used my credit card for £2600 and it was fine. no issues with it. Just to be on safer side call your bank and tell them you are going to make a payment to UKBA and then it should be fine.
