We were shocked on Sat 7th to receive 2 letters which were Notice of Enforcements. 1 was for an odd amount which did not reconcile with either my spreadsheet or the statement sent from the council earlier in the year. The 2nd was for the full amount for the current year.
Very strong letters, no abuse, were sent. We received 2 letter this morning from the council which solved the issue & in our favour. What has been shown is that not only were we hit by the auto allocation to arrears but a holding account as CIS stated earlier. the costs for 2019/20 have ben erased from our account & the instructions to the bailiffs have been recalled.
In this day & age it is an absolute pleasure to see former/current local/national government employees putting their knowledge & experience to good use in assisting others, so I am publicly thanking such an employee. THANK YOU very much CIS.
Always happy to help - far easier to spot the problems when it's an area you work in !. I did work for a local authority but I knocked that on the head when I started my self-employed work with council tax.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
