I can’t find a payment on my report?
Here is where you will find a payment based on the reference on your bank statements.
CHARITABLE GIVING/PAYROLL GIVING
These payments will appear on your Payroll Giving reports, they will usually be regular donations but can also be one-off donations.
CHARITABLEGIVINGVA/CHARITABLEGIVINGVA, or CHARITABLEGIVING/CHARITABLEGIVING1
These payments will appear on your Options reports as they are donations from our Options Account holders. These payments are usually one-off’s but could also be regular payments known as Standing Orders.
If you still can’t find a payment and it was received at the start of the month, it may be on the previous month’s report, as it takes a few days for monies to reach your account.
CHARITABLEGIVING/BENEVITY:
These payments are not included in our reporting service. To access a report for Benevity payments please visit causes.benevity.org.
How do I download a previous month's report?
Previous/historic reports are available to download in the ‘Previous Reports’ section of our online portal. Please use the drop down and select the month and click ‘Accept and Download Historic Report’. This will then download two separate reports, one for Options payments, and one for Payroll Giving payments.
Some users have problems with their browser only downloading one, or none of the reports. This is due to their pop-ups being blocked. If this occurs, please allow pop-ups for our website or hold down ctrl +alt when clicking the ‘Accept and Download Historic Report’ button.
