If your banking information has not changed, submit your request to be reinstated to PUP by contacting a Customer Service Representative by phone or mail. A void cheque is not required where the banking information has not changed.

If you are not submitting a new void cheque, your request must provide the required financial details including financial institution’s name, bank account number, transit number and (if possible) a Financial Institution Officer’s signature.
If any of your pre-authorized payments do not clear through your financial institution, the City will charge you an administrative fee, you will lose your discount and you will also be automatically removed from the pre-authorized program and will have to reapply for program.
Buying, selling or moving? Need to request a final meter read?
Once your final meter read is processed, enrolment in the program is cancelled. You will receive a regular utility bill and payment must be made by an alternative payment option by the utility bill due date.
If you are currently enrolled in our Pre-Authorized Utility Payment (PUP) program and you wish to complete and submit a Designated Mailer Request Form, to have an agent or tenant receive the utility bills from the City, your enrolment in the PUP program will be cancelled.
