Cariboo RD Utility Bills 2022

Courtesy of the Cariboo Regional District:

This is a reminder that the Cariboo Regional District offers a 10% discount to anyone who pays his or her utility account in full by May 31, 2022.  After this date, the full amount becomes due and payable by December 31, 2022.   The Cariboo Regional District does not charge penalties or interest.

Please be aware any accounts with amounts owing after December 31, 2022 will be transferred to the property's land tax account at which time interest and or penalties will be applied and become payable to the Minister of Finance. 

IF YOU RECEIVE A NOTICE FROM THE MINISTER OF FINANCE

Receiving a notice from the Minister of Finance or a Noticed of Account Change means your outstanding utility bill was transferred to your property tax account with the province. These amounts represent last year’s utility bill and do not affect the amount owing for this years utility bill.

Utility Bill Payments accepted through most Financial Institutions and Online Banking

Utility users can now make payments through most financial institutions and Credit Unions in BC.  This method of payment should be accessible through your online banking account, automated teller machines (ATMs), telephone banking or in person with a teller. 

To pay your utility bill using a bill payment service, you will need to add a payee for Utility Bill payments to your bank account. To add a new payee to your bank account, you need to know our payee name and your account number.  You should be able to find us listed with your bank under the payee name; Cariboo Regional District. However, some banks and financial institutions will use a variation of the payee name.

 If you can't find the Cariboo Regional District online, call your bank for assistance or try entering a shorter version such as “Cariboo Reg Dist”.  Your account number is listed on your Annual Utility bill. Your account number must be entered without spaces, decimals or dashes.

(e.g.  000 00000000 000 must be entered as 00000000000000).
