The government announced on 3rd February 2022 measures to help protect millions of households from rising energy costs in 2022 to 2023.
These measures include a one-off £150 non-repayable rebate for households in England in council tax bands A to D, known as the Council Tax Rebate. This is a payment of £150 per household and not a reduction off your bill. Funding has also been provided for councils to operate a Discretionary Scheme to support households that do not qualify for the Council Tax Rebate.
YOUR Council Tax Rebate is £150 in YOUR pocket – and loved ones’. If you – or they – don’t pay Council Tax by direct debit, you’ll need to apply for YOUR £150 NOW.
