Council Tax reband -do I have a claim

Purchased property 2002, carried out renovation to convert 3 flats back into one house (as it previously had been - albeit without the relevant permission). Valuation Board rebanded full house to F (even though work had not been completed fully). Checked on similar property next door either direction and they are E (I presume they have been E for many years). Do I have a claim when our property was rebanded from 3 flats at A to one property at F when the neighbours have houses similar to ours now and they are E? :confused: Help/advice please. Thanks

    As the neighbouring houses are "similar" rather than identical, it could be that your house is bigger, thus explaining the higher band. But you should check as it could be a mistake. The third possibility is that yours is correct and neighbours are wrong.
    If you are querying your Council Tax band would you please state whether you are in England, Scotland or Wales
