    ... a blanket statement of ‘no ones living there so why would there be a council tax charge’ is incorrect and doesn’t take into account what the council tax is charged for.

    You are the only person to make such a statement in this thread. Are you arguing with yourself? If so, I will leave you to it!
    You have a good understanding yet had no idea that liability lasted until a FT tenancy ended...

    You are misquoting me. I said "I have a very good understanding as to how Local Authorities and Precepting Authorities are financed, and the services which are provided" and I stand by that statement. You will also see that if I give incorrect advice I will acknowledge that and retract or correct it.
    Council tax is NOT a service charge ...
    Nobody on this thread has said that Council Tax is a service charge!

    You seem to be arguing with yourself again!
