Rebate on band change

Hi
we bought a house earlier this year which had been (clearly incorrectly) in band G.
The previous owner had lived here for 40 odd years.
I managed to get it successfully changed to a band E and it says that’s effective from 1993.
Am I right in saying that the previous owner will get the difference back dated all the way to 1993? If so, I guess I should tell her.

The previous owner will be due a refund of any CT overpayment, but some councils no longer have records of CT payments as far back as 1993, so there is a possibility she may not get a refund back to that dateIf you are querying your Council Tax band would you please state whether you are in England, Scotland or Wales1

Thanks. That could be quite a large sum! Do they notify her automatically or should I let her know?0

I’ll let her know. She did totally stitch us up with some major issues that she managed to cover up when we had the survey, but I guess it’s best to do the right thing

Turns out all of my neighbours have been given an automatic band decrease and a rebate back to 1993. Think my popularity may have rocketed!0

And your council will probably be bankrupt! LOLstevoh said:Turns out all of my neighbours have been given an automatic band decrease and a rebate back to 1993.

I hope this wasn't the reason that Nottingham has declared itself effectively bankrupt
