Your minimum required balance is the minimum amount that needs to be in your account so you can be charged for your scheduled collection(s). It is the price of one collection per bin.
The minimum required balance must available and in your account at least four days before your scheduled collection. For example, if your collection day is Friday your account must be topped up by Monday.
If your account balance falls below this amount, your account will automatically be topped-up by the difference, so it maintains the minimum required balance. If we cannot top up your account, future collections will be automatically suspended until you manually top up.
Your auto top-up amount is automatically calculated based on the difference between your account balance and your minimum required balance. Once the auto top-up is done, you can see this charge in your transaction history.
You can no longer set an auto top-up amount. However, you can make a one-off payment of any amount. Simply sign in to your account and select “Make a Top Up” in the Payments section.
You can suspend your collection any time up until 48 hours before it is scheduled. This is to allow time to adjust the collection route.
For example, if your collection is on a Friday, then any suspension must be completed in PayAsUGO before 7am on the Wednesday before the collection.
Charges for collections can take two business days to be processed.
