As I am sure you are aware it appears to be an effort to wind people up. Why do they bother?

If you check your local council's website, they should be on there. If they are not, they should be in the next few days x

erm yes, will the council really pay those rates ?

seen this flat on finborough road

its 2 bed going for £335 a week, so i get to keep the £5 difference, yeah?

If i sublet the spare room out say for £150 a week, what will i get deducted from me benefit ?

dmg24

Yes, the council will pay the rates in that area.

If you sublet a room, this will be treated as income.

IB is counted as income. If you have any savings this will affect the amount that you can claim.
