BPO Collections and old council tax

[chinasky]

Hi.

I recived a Formal Notice from BPO collections, they wants old council tax debt from oct 2004 to jan 2006.

I stayed in this property only two months, I thought lanlord ( landlord registered me to CT) will unregister me from CT.

I moved to another flat but I do not have any proof of it.

Now I recived Notice Of intention to instruct Walker Love.

I sent them statute barred letter, should I send them SAR leter or maybe budget plan and ask for monthly payment.

 

My landlord make a mistake when registering me. My first name is TOMASZ but on our agreement and notice from BPO is TOMASKZ.

Thanks for help.

Hi, council tax does not become statute barred after 5 years like other debts.

 

Were you not registered at the 'new property' for council tax purposes? rent purposes, bank or work?

 

anything to prove to the council that you live elsewhere?

 

If you cannot prove this then I would urge to write with a payment proposal with an budget sheet

 

both can be found in the cag library

I sent BPO my payslips but 1st class only not registere, and they never answer.

I would have sent them to the issuing council as only they can amend the amount and not bpo
