Council tax recovery

Direct debits

We're updating our council tax account numbers as we merge systems from 4 into 1. When we do this, we will update your direct debit details automatically:

  • you won't need to take action
  • the date the direct debit is taken won't change
  • the amount won't change

We've recently updated council tax accounts in the Kettering area and sent letters which will provide full information.

Attachment of Earnings

We can recover council tax debt through an Attachment of Earnings orderrecovering what is owed directly from your earnings.

You and your employer will receive a letter confirming the liability order details and the total debt to be repaid.

Your employer will begin making the deductions on a daily, weekly or monthly basis depending on how you're paid, until the debt is settled.
