To: Sandy Park the Convenor of the Highland Council
We, the undersigned, call on the Highland Council to reverse its decision to no longer accept cheques as a form of payment of bills at Council offices and Service Points.
Many individuals, tradesmen and small businesses depend on the cheque as a reliable, economical and convenient way of paying their bills. In light of the Payment Council's decision to keep the cheque in use for as long as their customers need them, we would argue the Council's decision is a false economy and that they should re-visit their decision to make it as easy as possible for people to pay their Council bills.
Even if you've already signed this petition, you can use the printable petition sheet to collect more signatures from your friends and neighbours.
You could go door to door on your street or pass the sheet around at a local event. Good places to leave a few copies include shops, pubs, libraries, and post offices - but don't forget to collect them and send them back to us.
When complete, please return (as soon as possible) to: John Thurso MP, Bring Back the Cheque, FREEPOST, RSRB-TUXG-HRUB, TAIN, IV19 1QH.
