Good morning.
It's my own fault really, I fell behind on my council tax (by two payments) and have received a summons for the full amount plus £58 in costs.
The full amount is over £1k and not something I'm able to cover in one go.
I have no dispute about the costs, it's my fault and I need to pay them, but want I want to avoid is having bailiffs knocking on my door with a liability order, attempting to intimidate my family, adding their own costs etc. etc.
I've yet to speak to the council, as I'm unsure what their stance is likely to be. Essentially, I'd just like a little advice on how I should handle it with the council before going any further.
Any help/advice would be much appreciated!
