If you live on your own in a private property do you get certain concessions as a single dweller from the council tax, utilities and alike

Assuming this is the case, if you then cohabit in the property do you loose any of these concessions.

This is in the UK (England).

Can’t wait for the BIG ONE 2004!

Thanks, my reason for asking is and I cant go into detail (revenge)

A person I dislike has taken what would seem to be a new householder, the couple are both male, does this make any difference, and is there a time factor in it.

Also how do I drop them in it.

This is not a homophobic thread, but a fact of returned unreasonable action.

Is the second person registered to pay Council Tax in another property? Do they reside there all the time?

Look out, council tax inspector masquerading as a Scoobynetter

ChrisB:
I would expect so, just thought it had not crossed there minds to contact and inform the council.

They both have been living there together for two months, one of them, the owner has lived there for a number of years on his own.

Both live there together, don’t know the whole story, but the second male may be seen as a lodger.

Cupramax: WRONG

I can’t think of a single way of getting even with him legally, if I could I would move it that direction.

My only pursuit is to make sure he does not put a foot out of place.
He started the unreasonable behaviour, not me.

Apart from that I own a Scooby, so I can’t be all bad

Cupramax

duuur! It was supposed to be humerous.... hot in your office, is it?

Ajax

Cupramax: OK M8 but that kind of comment may stop others contributing.



Just hopeful to get even, with a little help.

On the back of my Stoke-on-Trent City Council Council Tax bill:

1)**PLEASE NOTE**

You are required by law to notify the Authority (within 21 days) if you belive that at any time during the year a discount or other reduction shown overleaf ceases to apply. A penalty of £50 may be imposed if you fail to do so.

2) Discounts

If only one person resides in a dwelling, they are entitled to 25% discount.

Ajax

ChrisB:
Thanks for taking it on trust that I only want to get even, I will help him rightfully contribute to the services at that residence.

Minor warning - A lot of councils are rather reticent at letting you know you're entitled to 25% discount. I went two years paying full rate once before I questioned it, and even then they were trying very hard to avoid admitting the dicsount existed. If your council is like that, the guy might not be paying 25% off at the moment?

Must be better ways of getting even . . .
