Covid-19 has caused delays in postal deliveries across the UK, which may mean information takes longer than expected to reach you. It may also cause a delay in us being able to process items sent to us such as cheques or changes made to your agreement.

If a cheque was received on time, but not processed in a timely manner, you will not incur any additional charges and your credit file will not be affected.

To avoid potential late payments, please use CHAPS or Faster Payments through your bank to make payments instead of sending cheques in the post.

You can also manage your account and make payments online through our MyHPF portal or the MyHPF App, which will save you time.
