reclaiming council tax

Can anybody help with council tax reclaiming? I've done as the webpage says and discovered as I thought that my banding is wrong. However the local valuation office are adamant that the banding is correct. Anyone got any ideas?

  • Can you give a little more detail?
    What have you done to convince yourself that you are right and the valuation officer is wrong?
  • Checked the value of the house in apr 1991 which by my checks is £10,000 less then they are saying. Checked for other properties in street, 1 has been reduced on appeal in 1993. Phoned them, i've written a long letter about my findings on house value, the price crash and what we paid in 95 but they still reckon the value is higher than mine.
  • Have you not had a rebranding for valuation purposes in your town/city?
    Here in Wales we were done a few years ago (band stayed the same).
