Lodger or tenant? Did the landlord live with you?HMO or not? Who/how many did you share the property with?If it's an HMO you have no council tax liability. LL is liable.If lodger living with LL, again, LL is liable.The problem re CT would be if you were a tenant not in an HMO. CT would then fall to you, though you might have a civil case against the LL to reclaim it.....0

will try to call them and explain situation..it is a HMO which is why we are being evicted as the landlord wasnt supposed to be letting it as a HMO0 -
Wellcouncil tax liability for HMOs is never with the tenants. It is always the landlord. So the council cannot pursue you for CT.
