Council tax payments

I am pretty sure that my council tax bill is paid over 10 months. Does anyone know which two months are the ones you dont make payments? I cant find my council tax bill to work it out and am trying to sort out my budget for the next few months. Any advice much appreciated.

    I'm not sure whether all LAs are the same, but here we pay ours April-Jan, Feb and March are the "free" months.

  • February and March here too. (If you can tuck away what you would have paid you'll be two months up without even noticing... ;))

    I pay mine over 12 months, I find it easier to budget and know its going out every month at a little less than 10.
    make the most of it, we are only here for the weekend.
    and we will never, ever return.
  • Yes Feb and march for us too. But I have read from April councils will have to allow people to pay over 12 months if they wish to do so.
