Council Tax Energy Rebate Update

The Chancellor announced on Thursday 3 February 2022 that some households will receive a rebate to help with their energy bills.

Most people paying Council Tax living in properties in bands A, B, C and D will receive a one-off payment of £150.

If you live in a property in Council Tax band E, F, G or H, you may be eligible for a discretionary payment to help with your energy bills.

Pay by Direct Debit?

If you pay your Council Tax by Direct Debit, you will receive the payment in your bank account by Friday 22 April 2022. You do not need to do anything.

Don't pay by Direct Debit?

If you do not pay by Direct Debit we aim write to you by the end of April 2022 with details of how you will get the money.

In most cases the £150 Energy rebate payment will be paid by 22/04/2022 if you pay your Council Tax by Direct Debit. We must have already collected a payment from the account in order for the £150 Energy Rebate payment to be generated.

If you have not received a payment yet, we will write to you with a code to claim the payment.
