Hi,

Thanks

    We received ours yesterday (Monday), and it's £902.74 for the year. I pay it by Direct Debit, through my Bank Account, and it will cost £92.74, and then £90.00 after that for 9 months. It's Band A.

    And we live in the Midlands, near to Birmingham.
  • we got ours yesterday, we are in the north east and ours has gone up to £1250 per year.

    I'm in Lambeth and mine's not yet arrived :mad: Mind you, I looked on the council website and mine appears to have increased by just under £4 a month :rolleyes:, but I'll wait to see my actual bill.

    I'm in south west and got mine yesterday. We have just had our rebanding successfully approved and are now in a lower band, so although it has gone up we are paying less than previously and looking forward to a nice refund!
