Councils are losing around £90m of Council Tax each year due to incorrect or fraudulent Single Person Discount (SPD)
It’s easy to understand how people that are receiving a Single Person Discount on their Council Tax forget to inform the council when their circumstances change.
That’s why all local authorities should review their SPD claims regularly.
Our review service, which includes the additional “discounts & exemptions” element, uses market-leading processes to verify and validate entitlements and deter fraudulent claims from reoccurring.
We would expect to reduce your SPD claims by at least 4%: that’s a lot of money saved.
The Single Person Discount Review is part of Liberata’s Income Maximisation service together with our Empty Homes and Business Rates solutions.
