Thread: housing benefit

I recently have returned to work full time after having been out of work,I have had no problem with the income support people I told them they stopped my money and gave me £250 back to work money ,I have also taken over paying my rent.

My problem is the council tax people I have explained 4 times to them by letter (they won't talk on phone)that I want to pay my council tax bill by installments as I am frightened of getting into arrears but they have only sent an overpayment bill for £50 for the 21st -1st april for benefit overpayment,I have paid this .
I wonder if I should just write and tell them of my intention to pay the bill in 12 installments and use the payment slips they sent me for the overpayment,or do I stash the money and wait for the demand ,this option is the one I least like as I like to know my bills are paid and I have no hidden surprises.
any advice would be gratefully received.
thanks
