I picked up on this yesterday off MoneySavingExpert.com website:

“Save £1,000s on council tax. Typical bills are over £1,000s a year, but many have been overpaying. Here are the key ways to cut back. – Are you in the wrong council tax band? Up to 400,000 are, so use our council tax check and challenge system to see if you’re one of them. If so, you can reclaim all overpayments from past years too. Karen emailed: “I queried our band, and we’ve been given a £6,300 refund, plus our monthly charge is now around £45 less. Thank you so much.” – Are you the only grown-up in the home? If so, you’re entitled to the 25% off single person reduction. – Can you get a ‘Severely Mentally Impaired’ discount? Our full Severely Mentally Impaired council tax help will show you if you’re eligible and how to claim. – Moved home since 1993? Check if you’re owed council tax credit.”

I have had a number of enquiries about this very subject in the past few weeks. I did the research and pointed people in the right direction, but this takes you through the process in a much more user friendly way. Worth checking it out…..
