Sunderland Council Tax - Do We Pay Or Not?
Sunderland Council Tax - Do We Pay Or Not? That is the question.
I am due to pay the council tax for May but I was told by a few at work not to pay because you don't need to just yet.
I haven't heard anything official from Sunderland council so what's going on?

Re: Sunderland Council Tax - Do We Pay Or Not?
I pay them around £100 a month and others are not even paying and they have not had any communication from the council.
When I missed last year they wanted the lot in one go or off to court it was
The people I have spoken to say they are not paying until they are forced to but if you are right then they will get a big bill later?
Or will we get a rebate through lack of service?

Re: Sunderland Council Tax - Do We Pay Or Not?
I am not offering any advice here but I am paying it.
If there is any rebate then I expect they will adjust the bill accordingly.
The reason I am paying is I really don't want a massive bill all in one go and I am still working so can afford it.

I am still paying online but will keep my ears to the ground in case there are rebates I can claim if they forget me.

They really are callous, not everyone can keep up with payments, why be like that?Spider wrote: ↑12 May 2020, 12:54 I pay them around £100 a month and others are not even paying and they have not had any communication from the council.

You must have missed two payments then because the first time you get a warning.

It's stupid because if you can't pay and you go to court there's bags more money goes on top.Steve30000 wrote: ↑12 May 2020, 18:13

The council are like this. Miss 2 payments and find out - it's all automatic.

You'd think that anyone that misses 2 payments must be struggling with cash..Light Brigade wrote: ↑12 May 2020, 18:38It's stupid because if you can't pay and you go to court there's bags more money goes on top.Steve30000 wrote: ↑12 May 2020, 18:13

Councils idea? Force them to pay more.... I bet that works every time. Nuggets
