Paper bills will begin to look different for many customers
The provider has scrapped giro slips from some of its paper bills, which means customers who don't currently pay with cheques will now be unable to pay for affected bills at the Post Office, bank branch, or Payzone kiosk. British Gas said it has only removed the giro slips from the bills of customers who do not use this specific payment method for their monthly bills.
For example, if you consistently pay for your bills via direct debit, then you may notice a giro slip missing in any future paper bills. Customers who do use this specific payment should not be affected by the change and will still have the giro slip each month, the Mirror reports.

Customers can usually find a giro slip on a paper bill, this slip can be torn off and returned in the post alongside a cheque for the bill, or otherwise taken to the post office or bank in order to settle the bill. It is not a widely popular payment method, but is frequently used by older or more vulnerable customers.
