Householders can apply for help with their council tax after a package of measures was announced by the Government. The Energy Bills Rebate was announced as part of a wider package in February.
People living in band A-D or Band E with a disabled relief properties can apply for help through the scheme. It's not a reduction in the amount of council tax you are pay, but a £150 one-off payment to be made directly to a person liable to pay council tax subject to the following qualifying criteria.
The payment will be paid directly into the bank account of those who are eligible, and those eligible are urged to sign up as soon as possible in order that energy rebate can be paid as soon as possible.
