Check your Council Tax band, how much you need to pay and what to do if you think it's wrong.
Every residential property has a Council Tax band ranging from band A (the lowest) to band H (the highest). It's based on the value of your property from 1 April 1991.
The HMRC's Valuation Office Agency (VOA) decides on the bands, not Southwark Council.
The amount of Council Tax you have to pay depends on:
which band your property is in
how much we charge for that band
Your band may change if:
you make alterations to your home
You can:
If the VOA agree your band is wrong they'll put it right. We'll then update your Council Tax bill.
You must continue paying your bill while your challenge is being considered.
