Yesterday I had my weekly email from Martin Money saving tips etc. and noted on there was about your council tax and checking you are in the correct band as some people are due thousands.
Since me and drew moved in to our appartment/flat (whatever you want to call it) nearly 2 years ago, I always though that the band we were in was stupid as for a 2 bed appartment we where classed as the same band my sister's semi detached 3 bedroom house is! However I never did anything about it!
On this email that I had yesterday you can check what your neighbours banding is.... low and behold we are the only ones on band b.... every other property in our complex is in band a!
So my task this morning is writing our appeal letter! Has anybody ever done this? if so have you got an example letter i can have? I have also done the second check where they ask you to input the most recent sold price of a similar property and that also came out at band a..... so we have a good chance of this working, but I just need to write the letter correct.
O and if anybody else wants to check what you and your neighbours banding is it's
here
Thanks
