Help Needed - Student Council Tax Reduction

I can dispute their decision and go to Tribunal and present my case, which I feel I should do in the interest of fairness. I do not feel right accepting a refund of a discount that I know I should not have, because I was living there.
It all depends how much you wish to push the matter and whether its worth any more hassle for you.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.0 -

I must admit I can do without the hassle, but I do not feel it is right to accept a discount that is not rightfully mine, even though I could do with the money, because I am in rented accommodation with even more council tax to pay, but that does not make it right!
