TRPS Membership

Online Direct Debit Sign-up
You can set up direct debit for future automatic membership renewals with our secure on-line Direct Debit Instruction. Once setup, an annual payment for your membership will be taken automatically approximately 15 calendar days prior to your next renewal date. You may also add an annual donation if you wish.

You must be a member of the Talyllyn Railway Preservation Society for the current year before setting up a Direct Debit Instruction. You cannot pay for new membership or renew your membership for the current membership year by Direct Debit. Once you have joined or renewed you can set up a Direct Debit for future years at any time provided that Direct Debit instructions are received by the end of December for the following year.

If you are not yet a member, please click here to sign-up first.

If you wish to set up payment for a member or members who are not registered at your address, please set up a separate Direct Debit for those members and inform the Membership Secretaries concerning who the renewal should cover. Alternatively, you can download a manual form here and send this to the membership secretaries.

The Talyllyn Railway Preservation Society (“TRPS”) is using Payment Solutions Limited (“PSL” or “PSL Ltd”) trading as SmartDebit as its agent to collect Direct Debit payments on its behalf. SmartDebit is a Direct Debit bureau with a full infrastructure to operate this process on behalf of the TRPS. If you have any concerns or queries these should be directed to the Honorary Treasurer or the Joint Membership Secretaries.

Online Direct Debit Instruction

The Direct Debit safeguards and guarantees apply. No changes in the amount, date or frequency to be debited can be made without notifying you at least 5 working days in advance of your account being debited. In the event of any error, you are entitled to an immediate refund from your Bank or Building Society. You have the right to cancel a Direct Debit Instruction at any time simply by writing to your Bank or Building Society, with a copy to us.

Bank details

In order to set up your Direct Debit Instruction on-line you will need to provide the following information through the setting up procedure (your debit card or cheque book should contain all the bank details that you require): account number and sort code.

If you are not the account holder or if this account requires more than one signature, you can download a paper Direct Debit Instruction for completion and end the online setup process.

If this is a personal account, please continue with the online sign-up procedure. If you do not wish to process further, please click here to end.

Note: The Direct Debit Instruction is for the total membership subscription(s) for all members at your address. Should the number of members at your address change we require that you inform the membership secretaries promptly so that we can ensure that your next direct debit amount is correct. The donation facility is an optional extra on top of the subscription total. The actual amount payable will be set up each year by the membership secretaries, based on each member's age and then current subscription rates. You will receive an email notification 5 days before the amount is requested from your bank. This email will show the total amount to be collected. In order to receive this email notification we require that you specifically keep the membership secretary notified whenever you amend your email address.

Once the Direct Debit amount has been taken from your account for your next year’s membership renewal, you may cancel your annual membership and obtain a refund provided that you notify us in writing to [email protected] within 14 calendar days of such payment, and prior to the commencement of such membership year.
