What happens if you don’t pay?
1. Overview
You should pay the instalments printed on your new Council Tax bill to avoid recovery action. If you also have arrears then please complete an income and expenditure form.
If you complete this form we may be able to lower your payments towards your arrears to help you pay your new Council Tax instalments.
The council tax you pay funds the services we and others provide back to the community. This includes things like education, social services and the Police.
As we are legally required to help provide necessary services, we are committed to collecting the amounts that are due on the required dates. This is to enable a quality service to be provided at the best possible value to the community.
