Flippen council tax!!!!!

Don't you just love their efficiency

You should have gone to court and showed them up for the prats they are.

Just unbelievable................

Just to balance things out.. I see it from all sides... it all depends on whether the council tax dept was made aware you had moved out. How had you told them that you'd moved?

Today I had a caller on the phone who was up in arms about the fact we hadn't sent him a bill and a little bit of digging showed that he hadn't actually informed us of his move in to the borough. Even though we had sent a letter to 'the occupier' and that had been ignored.

So I can see all sides of the issue.

The purpose of reminder letters, final reminders and summons letters is to prod the occupant into contacting us at which point we can then do something to rectify a situation. We can only work with the information we are given. You say had been receiving threatening letters so had you not contacted the council when you received the first threatening letter.

We do make mistakes of course, but its not our fault every time!

Had cause to think about this post today and wondered if this answer had sounded harsh or maybe just plain judgemental - I see there were no further comments after I posted so I do apologise if my response offended in any way.
