How to register for paperless council tax bills
If you sign up for e-billing, you will get future council tax bills and adjustments in your online account rather than by post. By signing up to e-billing you are confirming that you and everyone named on the bill no longer wants to get a paper bill and agrees to receive all future council tax bills and adjustments online. When a bill is produced we will email you to let you know that you have a bill ready. You can then log into your account and view the bill.
Any notices related to none payment, such as reminder notices, will be sent by post as this is a legal requirement.
