How much has your Council tax risen?

[Cherie]

Ours has gone up by 5.5 per cent, 150.00 extra a year, 62.00 of that for social care which I agree with, not the rest though :idc:

[Firewire]

3%

[Shaun]

4.5% - about £55.

[smudgie]

Not a clue.
I think the yearly bill is due soon.

[Denver]

I dont know my dad pays it all so i dont ask

[smudgie]

4.9% plus whatever the parish council adds.

[ebandit]

No change here. I have no idea why. Not that I want to pay more but the council is flat ****ing broke and it's really starting to show... I'd have accepted a 5% increase if it was actually being spent in meaningful ways.

[jaxie]

3.99% apparently.

[Kizzy]

4.99% for Leeds.

[Livia]

3.3% rise. First time for eight years my Tory council has raised council tax.

Yeah same here although mine is labour in some ways I think it would be better to give a small rise every year rather than hitting people with such huge increases in one hit. I can't remember the last time I got a 5.5 per cent payrise :think:

Agreed. And no... I can't remember a 5.5% rise either.

[Cherie]

Agreed. And no... I can't remember a 5.5% rise either.

I remember getting a 16 per cent increase in one of my first jobs imagine getting one of those now :amazed:

LOL... I bet you thought it'd always be like that.

[Kizzy]

Yep you'll only see rises like that again if you're a banker ...or an MP.
