Ok upstairs done geez it felt like it took forever! but at least now its done and it just needs keeping on top of everyday

I have an iterview tomorrow Not a job I'd choose but its a job!

Need to decide if its best to feed the kids befor the doctors or after Decisons! lol

Recieved a bill from Council Tax this morning for £105 to be paid by the 25th, So I called to tell them I cant and its wrong that its so much. They had me at earning £197 a week not £97 and that right now Im not even earning that. She said I have to pay it and they will refund any overpayment when my details update. Errmm I think I will pop into the one stop tomorrow becuase I CANT pay it is the point! Oh and they only have me down as having Cameron and not Lexi what difference this makes I've no idea but I have to take her birth certificate again for the 3rd time!

gaaaaaaaaaaaaawd to council tax and administrators!!!

offer them £5 a week until they sort out the overpayment! They have to accept something and they should accept £5.

good luck with job interview, know it is not something you would normally do, but how positive are you for trying?

oh and feed kids before docs

council tax is scary, but they will accept £5 a week, better they get something then nothing at all. I wouldn't let your friend pay, as when the overpayment is sorted out, they may just deduct it off your future council tax bill, meaning your friend does not get his cash back.

This is what happened to us, we had an adjustment on our account, and they just deducted it from an overpayment we are paying back, so the amount we owe is less, but they did not give us the actual cash.

Phew!! What a busy day - I'm worn out just reading about it

Good luck with your interview, even if it is just something to tide you over until the perfect job arrives

Good luck with sorting out the council tax. You'd think you could rely on the local authority..sadly not!
