  1. Just in case anyone is still interested, after some more complaining, eventually the council decided that I did not owe them money and they dropped the "owed" payments. Justice is done. Thanks for your advice, guys.
  2. Thanks. Yeah I can't remember it was 7 years ago. The funny thing it that when I missed 2 months of paying the CT with my new property they sent me a liability order straight away, so I paid it off imediately, so I don't see how they can let it last as long as 7 years and try and get it from me now!
  3. They may have I can ask them. But with some of the records they say that they don't keep them for that long.
  4. That is a very good point, but they can't prove it. They also say "they don't need to prove it".
  5. They weren't clear, they said it could be either. I actually spoke to the current owner who has been there since I left, he said he hasn't received anything from the council(as far as he knows), and I haven't at my current address. I told them that I moved, they even admitted that they I told them that I had moved.
  6. They say they have sent warnings and bills out, but I didn't receive them. They have sent me screen shots of their system software.
  7. Thanks for your reply. The house is a high council band, that is why it is 2k, also they added charges for late payments (which i didn't receive). There is only one LO that they speak of which they say was applied on the 29th November 2004, again no record was sent to me though.
  8. Thanks for the reply. I cannot remember how I paid. It is a very difficult situation. I still cannot believe they made a Liability Order though, I haven't seen any evidence of it.
  9. Hi, I am new to this forum and would appreciate any advise that you nice people would like to give. I received a letter from the council this year February claiming that I owe the council about £2000 for council tax not paid at a previous address that I lived in 7 years ago, which as far as I know was paid. Being that it is 7 years ago I cannot prove as I don't keep payment records that long. In my 7 years of living here I have not received any warnings that I owe this money and I always pay my council tax on time, also the council have known my new address and even my contact number, but they have never tried to contact me about this debt. They told me they made a liability order in 2004, which they require a court summons from the magistrate court, but I haven't received any letter about this. I haven't seen this liability order, I have asked them to prove it, but they have just sent me some screen shots of their software. They keep prolonging the deadline as well when I speak to them. I am wondering why it's taken this long for them to suddenly contact me. Any idea where I would stand? Thanks for your help in advance Andy
