I said I will just pick the ones which I need and he said 'you need them all that so the point is it's cheper to go with the one bill option' That seems like I am being strongarmed into it.
I already said that I will chose only the ones and need and he is now telling me I need them all?
I don't need him to do my CT and BB I will sort myself and TV is useless. I feel like I am being cornered into pay the all in one. I don't want to get on his bad side. How do I reaffirm I want to handle my own affairs without him telling me what I 'need'.
Is the property banded for council tax ? https://www.gov.uk/council-tax-bandsI 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 -

Would thoroughly recommend this .....we've got this & when we go away touring in the caravan we simply unplug it from the house & take it with us.0 -

The landlord 'asking' for council tax to be paid via themselves is typically a way of trying to ensure that they stay off the radar and claim council tax discounts/exemptions that they are not entitled to (a very common issue, see many cases of it each year).
Eventually the council find out and then the tenant gets a large backdated council tax demand and has to find the monies for the council whilst trying to chase the landlord for the money back.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.

Does the tenancy describe itself as an AST/ Assured Shorthold tenancy?
Other sorts of agreement MAY permit landlord to say what you get.
But, regardless of paperwork,it might anyway be an AST.0 -
