Iam looking for work and should be back in it soon but at the moment the credit cards are becoming a bit tight to pay off - whats the bets pay to negotiate with them - normally I pay #70 off each per month but I need to cut it to around #30-40 or so each per month.
I no longer work in Council Tax Recovery but instead work as a specialist Council Tax paralegal assisting landlords and Council Tax payers with council tax disputes and valuation tribunals. My views are my own reading of the law and you should always check with the local authority in question.
