Mine comes out the band above what it's actually in - but is only valued 8k over the bracket so guess that explains it - hope i'm not facing a higher bill!0

Ohhh, my flat has never been sold. Its been owned by the developer since it was built!
My mums house was bought in 1981 for £8,500, in Northampton (East Midlands) says she is counil tax band A. She is band C!Debt free since July 2013! Woo hoo! The bank actually laughed when I said I have come in to cancel my overdraft.0 -
Worked for me, in the right band

Using this we are firmly slap in the middle of Band B. However, we pay Band C as do all our neighbours. Therefore presumably there is no point trying to challenge anything!!
Growing old is inevitable, growing up is optional :j0 -
So is Surrey South east or outer London? the nationwide calculator ( which I assume this is, as the help link opens Nationwides help page) says outer metropolitan.0

Surely some parts of Surrey will be outer London (eg Cheam) and some will be South East (eg Guildford)?
The house we sold last year is valued correctly. The house we bought last year (which wasn't built in 1991) has come out a band too low. No glitches for me, on a Mac with Firefox.0 -
Didn't go back far enough for me. House purchased in 1971.0

(Sort of) worked for me based on my house purchase price in 2000. It put me near the bottom of band C, although I am actually in band B (unlike everyone else on my street). A former occupier of my house contested the band before I bought it in 2000.
I'd tell my neighbours but would be worried the council would then try to put me up to a C!A smile enriches those who receive without making poorer those who giveor "It costs nowt to be nice"0 -
Well apparantly we should be band B but are actually in Band A so i'm happy!0
