Hi,
thank you very much for explaining about this!
I have been unemployed, during the recetion now, since November 2008, so I think it's a bit strange, that you did this change with the debt now, after I've been unemployed for more than two years.
But at least I've got that explained now, so that's ok, I guess.
What initisiated this, from me, was that I think I perhaps should have had Income Support, (and perhaps Council Tax-benefit and Housing Allowance), from when I worked as self-employed, as a Company Researcher, on behalf of Packaging Europe, in Norwich, from March 2007 to November 2008.
Could you please tell me if it's to late for me, to apply for Income Support, for the years 2007 and 2008 now?
(Since I think I perhaps was a bit under-paid at Packaging Europe.
If one did the research as thorow as one were told, then one would use hours on one company, (at least in the start), and only gotten paid around £1).
Where as agencies they used must have had another work-instrucs/tariff, I think, since they only added one product, for each company, (I noticed when I reviewed them), when they were meant to put all the products the packaging-company sold, on the database.
Anyhow, I don't think I got the equivalent of minimum-wage in this job.
But I send a copy e-mail to the Jobcentre, since I guess they are the right organisation to bring this up with.
Thanks again for clarifying this!
Best regards,
Erik Ribsskog

Thank you for your recent email regarding your Council Tax account arrears.
The balance indicated (£532.21) is the total debt outstanding on your account, for the 2007/08 and 2008/09 financial years.
Only the 2007/08 debt had been passed to the bailiffs for recovery: taking into account the payments you have already made, the balance on that part of the debt is the lower amount of £36.50.
It is the Authority's standard policy, when it is confirmed a debtor is in receipt of an appropriate State Benefit, to recall from the bailiffs and set for direct deductions from that benefit. This falls in line with the Authority's anti-poverty strategy policy, where we avoid the most vulnerable citizens incurring additional costs and fees, and are able to set up an affordable and secure repayment arrangement.
I trust this reply is satisfactory. Should you have any further questions, please do not hesitate to contact us again.
Kind regards,
