The banks listed above have announced that they will no longer process cheques from the dates indicated. This change in banking may cause some Justices difficulty in how to pay their membership fees. So, here are your options:
Option 1 – Pay by Internet Banking (preferred)
Option 2 – Travel to a KiwiBank outlet and deposit Cash (yes I know that folding stuff) directly into the AJPA bank account (see details below).
Option 3 – Set up an Annual automatic payment to the AJPA via your personal bank to take effect 20 October each year. Automatic payments can be set up as follows:
- Online – maybe get someone younger who can program the TV remote to help you
- By physically going into the local branch of your bank and asking the teller to assist you, or
- via Telephone Banking, ASB, KIWIBANK, WESTPA
