Appealing Against Your Council Tax Band

It has come to the Council's attention that one or more private companies or agents may be contacting Council Tax payers telling them they can get their Council Tax band reduced.

These agents may say they are from the Council or the Valuation Office - they are not.

They usually charge a fee for example 25% of the reduction plus VAT.

If you feel your band is incorrect, you do not need to get one of these agents to act for you - you can contact the Valuation Office Agency yourself for advice.

Please note that the Council will not call you to tell you that your property is the wrong band and please do not give your bank details out or make any payments up front.

Please be advised that you still need to pay your Council Tax while you are appealing against your band. If your Council Tax band is reduced any credits will be refunded to you.
