Rent refund

Question:
Rent refund
Answer:

If your rent account is in credit, you can apply for a refund.

Before we can approve a refund, we will review your account to confirm that the credit balance is accurate and that no money is owed to the council.

Any outstanding debts must be cleared before a refund can be issued.

Approved refunds will be paid directly into your bank account via BACS transfer.
