Not eligible for Council tax reduction?

Hi all.

I received a response from the Council to say I'm not eligible for a council tax reduction because my income is too high.

Firstly, my monthly income is approximately £600 a month, and secondly, on the email received, it says I work 16 hours a week when it's actually 12.

My savings are approximately £3400.

So taking all the above into account, would I qualify?

P.S. I do automatically receive the single-person discount though, but presumably that wouldn't interfere with an application for a further reduction due to low income?

Thanks.
